Hitler did an experiment like this, but instead he used jews, but it wasnt received very well, upon measurement of mass graves it was determined that they were in fact dead...

seems an odd way to describe quantum mechanics to me...

Interesting explanation!

I was, however, expecting `Dawkins` to explode out of that box like an alien facehugger and then for the presenter to flail around screaming with a yowling `lovely norweigan forest cat` stapled to his face.

well It doesn`t explain why the radioactive material can be decaying and not decaying at the same time so I don`t get it. Isn`t quantum mechanics about duplicate universes? so if the cat is still alive then in the duplicate universe the cat is dead?

Another quantum theory thought experiment that i`ve heard of is a deck of cards. Pick a card from a deck of cards without looking at it. That card can be one of 52 possibilities but since we haven`t looked at it, or "measured" it as it`s called in the video, then it`s exists as a wave function meaning that it`s measurement is multiple solutions. The card exists as every single one of the 52 cards at the same time. It`s only when we flip the card over and look at it that the wave function collapses into a linear function with one solution, The ace of spades or the jack of hearts or whatever.

Interestingly enough, in buddhist schools of philosophy it`s said that the reality that we percieve is merely a flat plane of illusion created by our egos and un-enlightened minds that constantly struggle to label and define the world around us, collapsing into the linear, and it is from this that we develop our wants, urges and desires which eventually lead to our suffering.

food for thought :P

^^^Excellent example JonTheGoose, and this may explain Daniel Negreanu`s ability to call the cards before they are turned. Perhaps, he can somehow use his mind to determine what the wave funtion[of the card] will infact collapse into. Things that make you go..hmm...

cat is dead and alive at the same time? that means the cat is half dead, which means it`s alive. now i`m confused.
