I didn’t believe these were real until I saw several generic gray fish literally fly out of the water by flapping their wings??? It was in the Atlantic Ocean. They’re really fast too.
I have worked with guys who got physics undergrad and mech E masters. They are both awful engineers who don’t really get it. I take this joke too personally because I know it’s bs from experience.
Fyi, there’s a lot of woo woo (edit: apparently racist term) crap out there that tries to make you believe that somehow the photons can feel that a human is watching them and they choose to behave differently as a result. This is not true. It just means that when you use a detector or some sort of probe that physically interacts with the photons they change their behavior. It’s not magic.
