Reality doesn't exist if you aren't looking at it. 

Even the guy in the video doesn't say that. The Copenhagen interpretation is just one of many.

One of the great scandals of modern intellectual life is the way that physicists brushed the problems of quantum mechanics under the carpet throughout the twentieth century. Led by Niels Bohr and his obscurantist "Copenhagen interpretation" of quantum mechanics, they told generations of students that the glaring inconsistencies apparent in the theory were none of their business. "Shut up and calculate" was the typical response to any undergraduate who had the temerity to query the cogency of the theory. (This slogan has been variously attributed to Paul Dirac, Richard Feynman and others. The indeterminacy of the attribution is itself a testimony to the prevalence of the attitude.)

What happens at the table while engaged in a game of baccarat will generally be perceived as 'reality'.  No matter if those were 'truly fallacy', 'absolutely real', or any form of anything in between those two.  Something that always quickly turns and leaves you with being somewhere you really don't want to be.  Problem is, you don't know it.
