Why is quantum mechanics weird? The bomb experiment

I have done quite a few videos to demystify quantum mechanics. In this video I want to explain just why quantum mechanics is weird. Is it entanglement or superpositions? Schrödinger's cats? Not quite, really. But the famous Elitzur-Vaidman Bomb Experiment demonstrates well just why quantum mechanics is weird indeed.
