Biiiig particle crush like club, make lightning!
No, kidding.
I was going to say, the maths at almost all stages describes "particles" using waves, where the amplitude of the wave at each point specifies the probability to find the particle there if you look. Only when experiments are described where the position is actually measured, does one treat the particle like a point particle. Whenever it does anything by itself though, it behaves wavey.
