Walking through a wall is very very very very unlikely, but science tells us it’s not impossible.
It’s called ‘quantum tunnelling’ and it’s why the sun explodes, and how your DNA replicates, and how light passes through a solid object.
A very clever teenager explained this to me this morning in under three minutes and closed with these (almost) impossibly wise words:
“Maybe the quantum world is telling us that when faced with an obstacle, there’s a small chance we can defy expectations and breach barriers.”
She absolutely nailed it.
I’m not saying take a running jump at the closest wall. But the next time you’re faced with something that seems ‘impossible,’ remember you always have a chance.
That’s just how the universe works.
