No, I heard this is a common misunderstanding. You can bounce light off particles going through ONE SLIT and still destroy the interference patten. Partivles going through the other slit shouldn't have been deflected - yet the interference pattern is totally broken!

What you are suggesting is there is a hidden variable theory.

Hmm, I'm maybe missing something in this example. In the two slit experiment, a single photon can appear to go through two slits simultaneously. You appear to be suggesting that there are multiple particles going throw the slits which creates the interference, but I understand it that one particle interferes with itself, when you do not detect which slit it goes through.
