Do particles truly move randomly?

(Just a preface that I tried /askscience to see but it was a bit complicated for me)

In the question I mean: do particles (eg gas) move truly randomly or is there a method behind the “random”?

Thank you!

This is a weird one to answer because its not really a yes or no answer. From what I understand it has to do with whether or not we are looking at them. This is an old video that explains an experiment that threw the theories behind it on its [head](https://youtu.be/Q1YqgPAtzho). Forgive the crappy animation but the idea is the still cool.
