Need Analysis By Vid Expert - Mandela Effect?

Got this from another site and it has blown me away. Watch as a children's book, On Time (major-league irony), changes between Berenstain and Berenstein.

Is this video legitimate? I have no idea if this is fake or not.

3:43 minutes

Well...  That is freaky.  If it is a fake, it's a DAMN good one!  And I noted the authors' last name at the bottom changes also.  One whale of a lot of work if this is fake.  But given My experience with the Berenstein Bears and the "ei" element, with many reinforced memories of it's being "ei," and that it has changed, I cannot write this off as a fake.  Probabilities I give?  80% this is the real deal.  20% faked.

Now that is weird.

You can see the masking being removed at 2:46.

Use the Youtube controls to slow it down so you can see it better.

It's just a quick flip of one image to the other. It would have appeared more convincing if he had used a merge transition from one frame to the other and it would have appeared to morph into the new image.

The movement tracking capability of FX on film is crazy easy these days.

The term commonly used and understood these days is - 'It's been photoshopped'

Oh crap. 

It's like getting excited when you buy a lottery ticket for a half billion dollars.

Yeah, after visiting the vid on YT, seeing that the poster only had that vid up, was NOT engaging in any discussion (You'd think if He actually took the effort to start a channel because this was real, He'd be interacting in the comments),  and watching the slowed down bit...  Probabilities have shifted.  99% fake, 1% real.

The masking would have to cover the whole book, as it has to change the names up the top and the bottom.

Or two small masks, one for each.

But it would be easier to just have a 2nd book cover ready to switch to.

And since we are switching from a's to e's the job is relatively simple.

I go with 99% fake as well.

There is a video of a guy moving a small plastic ball on his living room rug with his mind allegedly.

Very well done and I unable to spot the trick.

Although I'm far from a video expert, it doesn't look hard to do, as he only needed to stabilize the video on the already almost stable book, change the book whenever he wanted and then remove the stabilizing.

I don't even know if that's possible, but I do know that there are very good video editors available to anyone.

PS: I have to dedicate some time to video editing, if I could find some free time.

It most likely is a fake.

The whole thing (ME), still baffles me. How the Berenstein changed and how text in the bible have changed.  I have an old bible that sits on my desk, and for it to now read ``a wolf will lie down with the lamb`` rather than a lion is shocking.

Sorry I'm a bit late to this thread.

Someone that has worked with video editing for a living made the following Youtube video debunking it as hoax.
