When you think about it like that, there's an insanely higher (but still ultimately miniscule) chance that only some part of you will make it through the wall and then just leave you stuck there.
When I was a kid I was convinced that I could do it if I honed my mind sharp enough, and mastered my body. I'm still not convinced that it's impossible, because I didn't have the discipline to achieve perfection.
Anyone who - upon learning they are made of atoms - does not try to align them with another object so they may pass through it, lacks a scientific mind.

You can, there's just an extremely low chance that you will.

How about now? 😉

Big “throw yourself at the ground and miss” vibes here

Well, essentially, yes.

Also the wall is a bit more than one layer of atoms thick, so wouldn't there be a high chance part of you only tunnels partially through the wall?

Like the person that got stuck in the floor of the Enterprise-D.

We also exhibit wave-particle duality. It's just that our wavelength is on the order of 10^-25 m or something.

You just gotta run fast enough, trust me bro

You joke, but in theory it can be done. However, you also need to be completely isolated in a hard vacuum.

There is no duality, there are only waves, and very, very lazy waves.

Thats why we are here on science memes!

I've seen kids that age test this theory

Well according to quantum theory, you can (the possibility is just very low)

If you have nearly infinite time, you can try and succeed one day

Keep trying, sending scalar vibes your way.

Fuck thoughts and prayers, send scalar waves and quantum entanglement.

Maybe get your entire body to reach quantum coherence
