Twins

Did you know that a particle here can affect another on the other side of the universe instantaneously?
I am going to explain this one for you, well basically when an electron meets its opposite a positron they clash into a tiny flash of energy, the result is two photons flying away from the blast area. Subatomic particles like photons have a quality called "spin". This is not spinning, but these particles act as if they are. When two of these subatomic particles are created simultaneously, they have to cancel each other out via their spin. You cannot tell which one is spinning clockwise or counterclockwise until you observe one of them. Thus, they are doing both until you observe one of them. When you do observe one of them, the particle will suddenly spin counterclockwise or clockwise and the twin will do the opposite even if it is on the other side of the universe! This has been proven in an experiment with two particles on different ends of a laboratory.
