   A lot of people have difficulty with this because they can't quite   
   wrap their head around the fact that our reality does not apply to   
   a photon.

   Our experiments are the observational equivalent to trying to fit a   
   square peg into a round hole. Time does not exist for a photon,   
   neither does space. But they do exist for us. So our reality, our   
   observations are trying to force something without time & place   
   into a time and place.   
      
   It's not a good fit.   
      
   The result is quantum weirdness, such as Retrocausality.   
      
   For us, and only us, the effect precedes the cause. For the photon   
   and only the photon, everything happens in the same place and at   
   the same time.
