What is Quantum Tunneling

The video contrasts classical physics with quantum mechanics using a ball analogy. In classical physics, a ball cannot exceed its initial height due to energy conservation. Quantum mechanics, however, introduces a probabilistic nature where particles can appear in unexpected places, such as an electron inside an atom's nucleus, illustrating quantum tunneling.

What does classical wisdom say about the height a ball can reach after being dropped in a valley?
