  1. Watched CAST AWAY last night and was reading about the possible Mandela effect of people remembering a scene in the theatrical release where we see Hanks' character testing his rope for a suicide. But I can't find any hard evidence that such a scene was ever included.

      It would be especially strange to me to include a scene like that given how well the 'reveal' of his suicide attempt works in the structure of the film.

        There is no documentary evidence for this scene existing apart from an unsourced listicle from a content-generation website and an unsourced IMDb trivia entry (anyone can make an IMDb trivia entry). But I've found a lot of people insisting that the scene existed.
