Why is it that you can take two complete strangers and have them witness the exact same event at the exact same time yet ones recounting of the event will be different from the other???

Everybody has their own perspective, but PTSD plays a major role. Usually when there is something to unite two strangers for the purpose of recounting an incident, it means there was a traumatic event. What happens during a traumatic event is people become oblivious to what is going on around them. People with missing arms will go around asking if they can help, not realizing they have lost an arm.

people have different perspectives, they might be both right its just that they might have seen it from an different angle, like the movie hoodwinked, its a cartoon but you should check it out. they probably can't remember exactly, but might have tried there best to describe what they saw.
