Thats not what quantum mechanics shows at all.

What is being described is the pop-sci version quantum mechanics.

That version has people believing in multiverses and wormholes and other nonsense that is not falsifiable like magic and has no evidence like magic but people believe in it because people desperately want magic to be real.

Quantum tunneling effect is very much magic, on the same way that relativistic time is magic.
