    This could be an SCP or something lol, like you go in and are subjected to 6 additional dimensions of reality and go insane

    I think m-theory pushes out to 13. String up to like 11. It gets mind melting after 5 because things are more existential based, not just simple physical properties. Like timelines enveloping time and dimensions within but expressing the conditions of existence. So it’s like you can totally travel to the future, but not in your own timeline. You’d need to locate where the future is “waiting” and manipulate things in such a way that it triggers without existing in your timeline. Since in order to return to the present, you’d need the future to still be waiting and every atom in your existence continuing as it did to continue to that future, which isn’t there yet, but exists… So that’s simple. But now where and how are timelines sustained? They can’t operate at the same time because time can be “distorted” in one place but not another resulting in different time values. There must be a dimension that expresses and governs this so universes remain connected but have their different dimensions and rules within.

    And it just keeps getting more and more mind fucky. If you were experiencing 9D—you actually are but don’t realise it—youd lack the mental fortitude to appreciate it, since your mind would be needing to be constantly understanding and perceiving 5 additional dimensions beyond time.

    I don’t know about 9D, but I once saw Avengers: Age of Ultron in 4D in a theater in Seoul, South Korea. It was a 3D film with moving seats, smells, and air that would blast in your face.

    During a car chase, you could smell burning rubber, or close-ups of women would have a whiff of perfume or flowers. During a shootout, you’d get fine blasts of air on either side of your face, like bullets barely missing your head. If someone took a hit, the seats would jolt violently. It also poked you in the back if someone was hit from behind. Not to mention, flying in any aircraft felt like you were on a rollercoaster; the seats would raise and lower and tilt in all directions. It was pretty intense. Like being on one of those Universal Studios rides at their theme park, except for an entire film.
