◀◀ This image explains 2 non intuitive fundamental aspects of quantum physics [short post]

Sometimes weird theories and observations like the schrodinger cat or the double slits experiment can be comprehend easily with a little twist. As a quick summary, at quantum level, the 2 weird principles I would like to talk about are:

1. Two differents states (like the position in space of an electron) coexist at the same time (schrodinger cat metaphor)
2. The observer will distort this 'quantum reality' and will have a direct impact on the state simply by observing the element (double slit experiment)

This is completely non intuitive... Nevertheless, to apprehend the situation, just take a look at the image below:

Nothing special right? Right. It's just some cubes. But if I ask you to crop a cube, you will certainly give me something like this:

And you are right! Now you may see only this kind of cube on the image.

Nevertheless, we can also see on the same image a cube like this :

Both ways to crop a cube on this image are correct, but somehow when you look at the main picture, your brain can only define one of the two ways... which means that on the same image, 2 different types of cube coexist at the same time and it will only depend on the subjectivity of the observer to select one of the 2 states. This image somehow can help to apprehend the weirdness of quantum physics.
