    this is bullshit. I observed the ocean for an hour, I still saw waves.

    The way to test this would be to move the back canvas (where the electrons land) progressively closer and closer to the slits, until it ends up directly behind the slit. If we observe them going from equidistant strips at distance, to becoming a pattern of two slits again when distance decreases (electrons will be shot in large #'s), it would show that they didn't have enough time to separate into equidistant strips. This would prove that repulsion is what's making them separate the way they do.

    The reason they go in one at a time is because they are repelling each other. They can't go in at the same time because it'd be like trying to shove two very powerful negatively charged magnets into two close slits. The magnets will repel each other. Without additional force to drive them into the slits, they will end up going in one at a time, due to their repulsive force driving the other one slightly away from the slit.

    The particles don't turn into waves. They just repel each other. They remain as particles. The reason they create the interference pattern is because they had time to separate equidistantly due to some kind of quasi-magnetic repulsion. They are still repelling the previous electron and still interfering.

    The reason that measuring the electrons disrupts the results is because the barrier itself has electrons in it,m which affects the path of the electrons due to its own repulsion.

    Just to add on, you can google this and learn more about it if you like or just disprove me because I may be wrong, I don't know.

    That has to do with "parallel universes" and the theory of "multiple timelines." That experiment supports the idea that for every action that is ever done every possible reaction that could occur from that action occurs but in different timelines which diverge into separate parallel universes. For example, you're running on a track and after 1 hour, you finish. However in another timeline you would've had a heart attack halfway through the run, in another, you would've tripped onto a knife, etc

    Crazy isnt it Jason G? There are videos that explain it better than this and the outcomes are a lot stranger than this video shows; this is a great intro video though.
