Are there more than 3 dimensions?. Some say yes, some say no. I am drawing there the HYPERCUBE; a cube that is impossible to imagine in a 3D world. This should give you some thinking.

    yeah,the 4D is time and movement :)

    • Nut-uh!

      The second dimension is time! The fourth is width, the first is depth, the third is height. So saith the Lord.

      But this guy was referring to an extra spacial dimension not temporal. While in relativity, time is a "dimension" or more accurately, space and time are a four dimensional phenomenon or hypervolume, it can still be legitimate to speak of other spacial dimensions - either including time or in a non temporal frame of reference.

      Cheers

      Time and movement, Time starts at 1D.And we can move and we are 3D.

    • think

      if we lived in a 2 dimentional world, a third dimension would be impossible to imagine. We live in a 3d world, maybe we're just cant move in the 4th one. however, i think this video doesnt explain this right because a drawing on paper can only show 3 dimensions.

    • Somewhat true

      This is the 4th spatial dimension

    • somewhat 3d?

      There doesn't seem to be anything 4d about this at all. 2 cubes with relative corners connected still conveys a perfectly rational 3d structure.

      Could someone explain why this is 4d?

  • interesting.....

    That is some good brain food, although in modern physics it is considered that we do live in 4 dimensions, the 4th dimension being TIME. Stephen Hawking explains this in depth in his book 'A Brief History Of Time' and 'The Universe In A Nutshell'. Keep up the good work!

  • 3-d

    We live in a 3 dimensional space world, and if we add time we get 4 dimensions. A paper is a 2-d surface so we can only draw 2-d objects on it. We can pretend to draw 3-d objects, this tecnique is known as descriptive geometry.

    Theoretical physicists argue that the universe is made of 10 or 11 dimensions, in which the mathematical description of the universe gets highly symmetrical, but we can only 'sense' 3 spatial ones.

    The construct made in the video exists only in abstract math and cannot be realized in this world. Maybe if you smoke a good one you could build this hypercube :)

  • Sorry, time is the 4th dimension...

    Think of two parallel walls in your house. Each of the two walls is a 3-D object, just as each of the two cubes in the video are 3-D objects. If you took some string and connected the corners of one wall to the corresponding corners of the second wall, you would have 8 lines, again just like the video. Put simply, you’d be able to see the string! Even if the walls partially overlapped, you’d still be able to see [part of] the string. AND that string would exist in the same 3-D space that all other objects exist. Sorry, there is no 4th [spatial] dimension.

  • A four dimensional cube is also

    known as a tesaract... google it.

    By SubGenius23 1180941229 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down
    • No

      A teseract is the fifth dimension--gotten from literally bending the fourth dimention, which is time; allowing you to travel freely among the 1st, 2nd, 3rd,and 4th dimensions. An example of this is a wormhole. It bends time and space. Another, much better example. It's quite a distance from New York to Paris. A tesseract would literally "bend the map", and bring the two places together to make the distance shorter. Sometimes, a straight line is not the shortest way to an object. Warping space time is.

  • LOL

    you should try drawing this when your mind can conceive things in 3D anyway the damn this keeps shifting perspective .... drives you nuts

    By Joel67 1180916428 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down
    • I Know!

      it keeps shifting perspective even though he colored the base! so im trying to see the same perspective that i saw before but i cant remember how to get it like that cuz im seeing in the other perspective and its really frustrating!! :) oh well i guess that happens to everyone

  • 4-D eh??? (2)

    and one more thing...
    so if you guys think that the orange lines is the 4th D,then u can shift the blue cube one block to the right,and make a green lines trough each corner,then can u call it the 5th D eh??? two block to the right and u can call the 6th D eh???
    i dont think so...

    By kadon 1232179334 Reply Spam Moderate Up Moderate Down
  • 4-D eh???

    It's impossible for now...
    at least for my mind...
    hey boy,thats 8 orange lines are still apart of the 3th D...
    Humm... just move the blue cube one block to the left...
    sure,actualy they just the combine of the x and z pole if there are x,y and z
    but may be sometime the 4th D truly come...
    who knows...

  • good drawing

  • more proof

    it isnt a very good example, drawing on paper, but if you want more information, just google 'rotating hypercube'

    The animation of the rotating hypercube will show a cube inside a cube. The inside cube will rotate and end up on the outside, aparently passing 'through' the other cube, this isnt true, it is just being displaced

  • the 4th spacial dimention does exist

    Ok, i am going to sum this up as simply as possible
    There are (technicaly) an infinate number of spacial dimentions (the amount in this universe is unknown.) This can be proven as a multitude of modern day mathmatics and physics use the existence of a fourth spatial dimention. Time isnt a spacial dimention, we just use it when exploring 3d SpaceTime. This doesnt make it the 4th dimention, just the dimention we use other than the three spacial dimentions that we can move about and interact in.
    The fourth dimention is very complex.
    A fourth dimential being would be able to see all 6 sides of an opaque cube while also seeing the contents. They could remove anything from any container in the 3rd dimention without even touching the container that it is in by displacing it from the third dimention (imagine taking a paperclip from a ring of string. In the 2nd dimention, this ring would be impossible to get past without opening but us humans, being 3 dimentional, can just displace it, or move it, in the third dimention (move it above the wall.) to any being in the second dimention, the object would have just 'dissapeared')

    There, the 4th dimention, explained by a 15 year old. I hope this clears some things up!

  • ok...this is what i think

    do those lines exist?: yes and no

    they dont exist cuz its impossible to do that off the paper.

    yes they do exist otherwise we wouldnt live. those things connect every 3 dimentional thing together. but we just dont see them. now, what new questions does that bring up?

    i wont answer cuz i probably cant but please, ask and i hope they get answered.

  • Mathematically speaking...

    The number of dimensions doesn't matter, all the theories and such are the same, no matter if it's 1D, 2D, 3D, 72D or n-D. So, most of the things in math have to be proven in n-D. That's pretty neat but hard to imagine :P

  • 4th dimension

    ok guys if u really wanted to no the 4th dimension is time........we cant show time on paper though now can we? when we move we move through time and space so when we r in motion we move through a 4th dimension........we cant stay sittin in 4D though

  • Its 3D

    And the orange line is nothing but a Rational 3D structure.
    ????????

  • here's something new for you...

    there are more than 10 dimensions, scientifically proven, just ask your physics teacher

  • this theory is garbage-riffic

    so if i draw three cubes that are sorta interlaced with eachother, and connect them would that be five dimensional? also they spelled "which" like "witch". besides i could easily picture it, it would just look like a strange shaped, eight-sided figure. this video proves nothing except that the person obviously practiced drawing cubes a lot and is very very good at it... good idea kinda, but i thought it was obviously ridiculous right away. the lines are just distracting is all, its a lot to visualize at once, but good try buddy

  • OMG

    No its the orange lines of the fouth dimension its not possible the apocolypse is coming!!! Come on its just a drawing its not a true 4d object. Its impossible to see a 4d object in 3d. I mean think about it if you lived in a 2d world what would something in 3d look like?

  • Finally someone else sees like I do

    I use to draw doodles like this as a kid. used to drive the other kids nuts. They always called me weird. Well at least I wasn't the same run of the mill like everyone else.

  • yea

    theres this one theory out there that states we live in 11 dimensions

  • This is incredibly stupid.

    This can be done with any drawing. A drawing is 2 dimensional and 3rd dimension and "4th dimension" rules do not apply. this video is very lame.

    If it made you ponder something more than a lame 2D drawing... YOU S**k !

  • 4D?

    Hm.. really interesting.. but.. does 4D exists just in cubes? how about other figures?
    You should try :)

  • What did u mean 2 say?

    I think you meant something else but not 4th dimension.. Or, maybe I missed something? For me, the two cubes (or even more 3 dimensional multi-surfaces, not necessarily cubes) can fit together perfectly in a 3D world..

    Maybe I could not get your point… can you explain more?

  • that was 4D?

    it was just extra lines added to connect the overlappin cubes. how many dimensions are there? and how do we see them all?
