Thread: i thought of something about 4d

If you played the new paper mario for wii, you would know that you can flip from 2d to 3d. Sometimes you will run into a wall, but when you go 3d, you see there is a way behind the wall that doesnt exist in the second dimension. imagine if you were in 3d, and there was a cube that made it impossible to get past the cube, so you could flip into the fourth dimension and find away around the cube. hard to imagine but yet its a good way to think of it.

What you said is interesting, that 3d provides a way around 2d, and theoretically 4d around 3d, (though some say 4d is time, not physical), however I still cannot picture a 4th physical dimension, kind of like we can't imagine a new color

If you were a 2-D being and you saw a square in front of you this is what you would see.

A line. Of course, 3 dimensional beings see a square when looking at the 2-dimensional image from a distance away on the z axis (3rd dimension)

Our world would look totally different if you looked in on it from a perspective along the 4th dimension.

2d beings cannot understand 3d
and 3d cannot understand 4d.
u can think about it all u want
