I saw this a while ago, but I stumbled upon it again today, and it's still damn interesting.

"all possibilities are contained within the 10th dimension" Mind boggling...

I'm a massive fan of LOST, and that uses different interpretations of the theories of time and space, so this stuff really interests me :)

It's very hard for humans to think of anything past the fourth dimension (I know I struggled).

That's deep. What else can you possibly say about the tenth dimension? I'm reading a book about the concepts of infinity right now for Physics class.. it's definitely fun to sit here for hours pondering the possibilities.

Thank you for sharing!
I really enjoyed that video, thinking about the tenth dimension is easy, unfortunatly we cannot actually live in it or coming up with all those posibilities :(

It took me a while to understand some of the concepts that the video was refering to like the folding of the dimentions, but I think I got it now.
Great video, thanks again :)

It all came together around the end...

I like the part where the ant crossed dimensions without even knowing it. Kind of reminded me of the math behind the Möbius strip, from one of my previous Calculus classes.

Lol this is so oversimplified. We cant prove more than 2 dimensions.... 2 dimensional isnt a dimension its just a part of our 3rd dimension. the guy on this video is an theorist/retard (for not telling everyone its a theory) looking for ways to sell his book.

I hope you mean that we can't prove more than three dimensions!

im talking about quantom dimensions. 2d isnt actually a dimension its just a flat plane.

2D is a dimension... It's a X and a Y dimension... (duh)
