* In [[Ray Bradbury]]'s ''A Sound of Thunder'', several time travelers to the past realize that they have changed history when they return to the future and notice changes that no one else recognizes.

* In ''The Lathe of Heaven'', George Orr is the only one who knows reality has changed. Of course, that makes sense, as his dream causes it. It is also discovered that anyone in the room with him when he is hypnotized into dreaming a change also knows it. That makes slightly less sense, although since his subconscious is involved and the method used is not machine based, it certainly is possible. Even though other people with him can know, they are still not sure it happens unless he reminds them or it is a major change {{spoiler|(like 90% of the population dies)}}.
