Someone is Watching You
Transcript
00:00how could a photon know if someone is watching i cannot explain to you what you're about to see
00:07that's because no one on earth understands it yet if you can't live with that then you're not going
00:14to be happy with what lies up ahead left slit right slit another right slit left slit if we
00:21watched them all day long the pattern would be random about half would go through either slit
00:30wait a second where are the waves where's young's interference pattern
00:43this is where the weird begins okay photons keep on coming this time we promise not to look
00:53you're not going to believe this but we can change the pattern on the far wall
00:57simply by not watching which slit the photons pass through i know it sounds crazy but in every
01:04trial ever conducted the outcome depends on whether or not the experiment was observed
01:19so the reason we didn't get the interference pattern earlier wasn't because we chopped up the
01:23light into single photons it was because we were observing which slit the photons passed through
01:37you
