  1. It is like 2 dimensional being thinking the 3rd dimension to be time. And a 4 dimensional being thinking the 5th dimension to be time. We are just 3 dimensional beings, we can,t desribe the 4th dimension because we have no reference. Just a random thought.

  2. I think if you arrive at your destination before time, contradicting the laws of nature, it's kind of time travel. That place, people and you are in shock to face each other for sometime and then you revert back and follow the longer course/path and finally arrive there again..

  3. I'll give it a go. The dimension paradox, if that's what I may call it, isn't really a physical thing, it's a concept. We cannot visualize a higher dimension but we can imagine it to an extent using mathematics. Using the same principles described in the video, a straight line was 1 dimension, an angle or turn made two dimensions, and depth/height added the third dimension. The fourth dimension wouldn't necessarily be 'time', it would be instant relocation, which is comprised of time as is everything else we can perceive, only not quite the act of going "back to the future", so to speak. It's much the same as a particle such as a quark appearing seemingly out of nowhere and suddenly popping up at a great distance away instantly. To us, it would seem as though time has been violated and faster than speed of light occurred, but the fourth dimension is not restricted by time as the third dimension is. The particle only appears to suddenly exist and not exist because we cannot visualize the fourth dimension, the same as an ant wouldn't see a boot from a human until it's just about to squash them. If we're talking fourth dimensional travel, I guess the best we can do is to visualize time space folding and the effects of gravity. If that's the general rule, then a subatomic particle isn't restricted by the laws of physics, and gravity would not interfere with its travel. Light bends around a planet or any object in space, but on a subatomic level, on the quantum level, there are no physical rules on subatomic particles. On atomic particles, there are certain physical rules observed in this dimension, but subatomic particles are the "spooky" mystery that Einstein eluded to.

  4. As we can move freely in 1st, 2nd and 3rd dimension, how can we say that time is the 4th dimension? If time is the 4th dimension how come we are not able to freely move in it?

    Just a thought!

  5. A simple 4th dimension example.
    A artist in our 3d world paints 2d surfaces. As on a balloon. A 4d artist would be able to see inside the balloon. And paint the interior. It would be normal to him.

  6. Conflating regions/ realms of space with distance from a fixed point is utterly corrupt. Let’s pretend that there’s 0 dimensions( a single point in space still exists within a single region of 3 dimensional space) , let’s pretend that there’s 1 dimension( a line still exists within a single region of 3 dimensional space) let’s pretend that there’s 2 dimensions( a square still exists within a single region of 3 dimensional space), ok in REALITY there’s 3 dimensions, let’s pretend there’s 4 dimension( a tesseract is theoretical), on and on, let’s pretend there’s 5 dimensions, let’s pretend that there’s infinite dimension. He’s basically saying “lets pretend that…”. You’d have to be retarded to actually believe that more than 3 dimensions exist in REALITY. Hawkins was a hack/ shill.

  7. 5% of the comments: I have a question!
    95% of the comments: TIME IS NOT THE FOURTH DIMENSION

    and rightly so, time really isnt the fourth dimension

  8. Btw, time is NOT THE FOURTH DIMENSION. There are three spacial dimension, and time.
    Think about it like that: the volume of a 3d cuboid is measured by multiplying width, lenght, and hight, all of which can be measured in meters. if time was the fourth dimension, the 4d equivalent to the volume of a 4d cuboid would be width times lenght times height… times time? so three factors would be measured in meters and one in seconds? No, the fourth dimension is a theoretical additional spacial dimension and not time.
    Also, why can we move in three directions and time moves on without us having to move in a direction. If time was the fourth dimension, why would it have an impact on our three dimensions?

  9. Time applicable only among planets….NOT in space…so no use of time travel….if so, same time will be there in any place in universe…why can't we spend our life time with our peoples in earth than stranger planets…Time travel might lead to human death if stranger planets not suits to live…Even in earth itself people travel long distance around earth but they always finally to come back to their HEAVEN HOME…asap.

  10. DMT is the shortcut to the 5th dimension i saw metatron cubes in 4d before i knew what they were and the flower of life was the fabric of everything we are all 1
