00:00Can watching something freeze time?
00:02It sounds impossible, right?
00:04Turns out, watching means hitting tiny particles with light.
00:09This forces them to pick a state.
00:11So if you watch constantly, the particle gets stuck.
00:14It can't change or decay.
00:16Scientists use this trick to freeze unstable atoms.
00:20It's like pressing pause on nature.
00:22Mind blown?
00:23More wild science in the link in bio.
00:25Watching it literally stops its time.
