Where Quantum Mechanics Went Off the Rails

This video critiques quantum mechanics for going off the rails when it started trying to understand wave function collapse. It contrasts Hal Puthoff 1987 paper on hydrogen atom ground state with mainstream physics approaches to electron stability. The presenter explains that classical physics predicted electrons should radiate energy and spiral into nucleus within 10 to the minus 11 seconds but experiments show atom stability. Rather than admitting classical physics was wrong or adding zero point energy explanation, mainstream physics arbitrarily claimed classical and quantum worlds work differently. Louis de Broglie 1924 thesis proposed electrons as waves leading to wave function concept. Irwin Schrdinger introduced complex valued wave functions that collapse into particles upon measurement criticized as nonsensical. Puthoff proposed zero point energy continuously replenishes electron providing different universe view as energy reservoir. Charles Chase challenged Sean Caroll claiming zero point energy would be proven usable within his lifetime.
