Quote:What does an electron really look like? I mean, if we zoom in all the way. Is it a sizeless speck of charge? Is it a multidimensional vortex of quantum strangeness? Is it the boundary of a tiny universe with universe-electrons of its own? Let’s find out.

9:24 This explains a lot.
Quote:Now the virtual electron positron pairs have a decent likelihood of directly interacting with the central real electron. Sometimes a virtual positron will actually annihilate with  the real electron which then promotes its once virtual partner electron to reality, it's as  though the original electron shifted position.

Quote:What do you get if you take something that’s infinitely massive and combining with something else that’s negative infinitely massive? You get a single electron, at least that’s what it looks like in our most precise way of describing the quantum world.
