Ok there was this guy I know who believed that we are not real only when he would look at us are we real.

It's funny. If you have a moderate knowledge of quantum mechanics and smoke a lot of pot, you would probably be one of the most constantly-freaked out and paranoid people evar.

Technically, what that guy was saying is kind of true. At the level of fundamental particles, physical objects exist as probability functions, and it's only when they are directly observed that those probability functions collapse into a definite observable object. Schroedinger's Cat FTW!
