Quantum particles represent a superposition of possibilites, but an atom represents the average of its contained possibilities. In extreme cases, all of the particles within an atom can be superpositioned to cause the entire atom to superposition, but this only happens in extreme conditions, and the more atoms you add, the more impossible it becomes for such a thing to happen. In a sense, the system becomes filled with so much probability that it averages out to certainty.
quantum particles "collapse" from observation, because their probability becomes averaged into the system they interact with. The realized, linear path of the observing system mixes with the probability of the photon/electron, and the system (that the photon/electron is now part of) rearranges to include to most probabilistically certain location of the no longer probabilistic particle.
In a sense, energy is a measure of the probabilistic potential in a system of particles. More energy = more potential. Consider what happens when you get enough probabilistic potential into large amounts of matter, aka a bomb: it gets fucking ripped apart. There are no magical alternate timelines that this bomb is sending you too; you just fucking die.
