Hi,

>You are correct. This concept is called tunneling. 

That's not what you drew. What you drew was superposition of waves. That happens
all the time on a macroscopic scale. Most obviously in the sea on a windy day.
Also with waves in air, both sound and EM. However particles don't seem to like
doing that (witness the bump on your head. ;)
Note also that mechanical waves are only possible precisely because the
particles don't pass through one another, but pass their kinetic energy and
momentum on from one to another (actually via EM fields at the atomic scale).
