The Mathematical Physics of the Slinky.

  The Slinky can be modeled as an n-body problem consisting of n coupled masses connected by a springs that obey Hooke’s Law. This model can be further refined by taking the continuum limit where n goes to infinity becomes the wave equation dy²/dt² = b dy² /dx². The same math underlies Quantum Field Theory.

The falling slinky and QM.

 The seemingly strange behavior of the falling slinky can be explained by referring to what the universe, at a particular point in spacetime "knows" versus what the universe, or person, at another point in spacetime knows.  The person knows that the slinky has been released before the bottom of the slinky knows.  QM is all about what the universe knows at various locations in spacetime. Sometimes and someplaces the universe happens to be a person.
