• I highly recommend to watch this video first: [VIDEO] , to get the idea. Then this: [LINK] , for explanation. No need to read long books.

• Interestingly, there is a (possibly still incomplete?) model of QM that explains this mystery and can even be replicated in human scale experiments: The de Broglie-Bohm pilot wave model. In this model, both the wave and the particle are simultaneously real. the particle is being …

• If you want to develop intuition, look at this video: [VIDEO] . Please note that physics as science in general is advancing constantly, but mainstream physics advances in sprints. Currently, walking droplets and Pilot Wave Theory are not good enough to be included into mainstream …
