They also use giant air-blowers and water sprays.
The 'Honey I just shrank the Audience' ride at DisneyLand is an example of those sort of Theatres.

Exactly, and the loving lion scene in that theater in Disneyland scares the forget out of me to this god damn day. D:

The 4th dimension. is Time.

We've been in it all the Time. ( no pun intended )

The 4th dimension. is Time.

We've been in it all the Time. ( no pun intended )

There are 4D theaters, they are just normal 3D theaters but the forth dimension is added by feeling, like mist, (It being the only safe 4D effect I can currently thing of) or movement in your seat.


As it has been said, the fourth dimension is time.

You were wondering about seeing 4d? Well, this is a little hard to explain but...

Let's say there are these little creatures that only live/move/see in two dimensions. They live all their life like that, never seeing up or down, just left, right, forward, and back. If you were to pick one up, it would have no idea what was happening. If you put it back down it would still not know what happened, just that some crazy stuff went down but now it's over.

Well if you were to move through time like that, it'd be the same way. You'd see everything around you moving extremely quickly, and once you had stopped, you wouldn't know what happened, just like the creatures that lived in 2d, because your body isn't designed to sense time like that. You wouldn't know how far away you had moved, or how quickly.

Thats brilliantly simple. You sir, get a pat on the back.

Imagining black is imagining something. When you try to imagine nothing at all, most people see a vast expanse of white or black. Both of them are something.
I have often pondered what pure nothingness is. Nothing is nothing, even though in a world of nothing, nothing would mean nothing, but then again nothing is nothing and so there is no meaning.

Gah, doesn't make sense :(

Indeed.

And wouldn't the first dimension be infinitely small?

A first dimension shadow would be a zero dimension shadow nul light D:

Spacetime 4th dimension or mathematical 4th dimension?

whats the difference?

3rd demntion is Lenght, Width and Height. Whats the 4th measurement :o

seconds

The fourth dimension is time. The change of an object from moment to moment.

I'm just taking a shot in the dark here but, wouldn't objects in the 4th dimension take on a 4th quality of mass beyond length width and depth or is that all bullstuff?

They constantly change form from it's creation to destruction in it's current state?
