This fascinating video by Zach Star explores the strange effects that higher physical dimensions have on shapes and volumes. It's quite counterintuitive in some places. For example, there are only 5 platonic solids in three dimensions. Do you think that number goes up or down in higher dimensions? Does it level off? It's weirder than you think.
Finally, I can't imagine what the fourth dimension looks like and apparently nor can anyone else because we exist in three dimensional space. Can you try to imagine it - a direction perpendicular to all of our three directions?
Nerd level: on a higher plain.
