The simple explanation:

There is no 4th dimension. People made it up. 

They didn't make it up, rather, it's a developing theory.

Duh. That's time travelling.

You seem to have worked up quite an attitude lately. 

If you don't have anything polite to say, then done say anything at all.

Oh so now I have an attitude because I'm disagreeing with you?

It's just that a shadow can't be 3D or it's not a shadow

How do you know, smartypants?

Because it is? Have you ever seen a 3D shadow? That would be like one of those starwars holograms which we don't have the technology to make yet

You can only see a 3D shadow in the 4rth dimension, where you are not.  And don't say the 4th dimension is just time, so you are in it, because you are not.

Check out the 2 videos that I just posted earlier - it shows all of the 10 dimensions. They're pretty interesting...

I wasn't gonna say that, and also how would that be possible? a grey cube floating around or something? That would be weird

Anyway a couple of years ago I heard that there was gonna be a movie in 4D
Needless to say, there wasn't.
But the people making up that story at school said that it was gonna be like you were actually in the movie and not just the 3d like in today's theatres

Anyway if you put 2 lights on diagonal to you then what do you call the shadow they mix into?

Wrong! Super shadow! 

Also about the movie
Was it scrapped or something? I never heard anything about it since

About the 1st dimension: It's nothing. It's practically a small dot, and it'll never be anything more. So that means it's shadows are non existant. The Zero Dimension doesn't exist, and frankly, I've never heard of it till now. You just pulled it out of your, uh, hat when making this topic.

Meanwhile in the 2nd Dimension, you're talking about shadows being 1 dimensional. Are you aware of what dimensions are? The 2nd Dimension can be found on a piece of paper. What makes you think it has shadows? If it did, they would be 2 dimensional too. So that would completely break away your base of the 4th dimension having 3D shadows.

Ok, wait.

1st dimension = a line, not a point.
0th dimension = THAT is the one point thing

So 2D shadows are lines that appear to be shadows.  Simple.

It is the incredibly immature way you are disagreeing with me that gives the impression of a negative attitude.

Look here: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/illusionist/329918

It may help you calm down.

Negative attitudes rule. 


Just kidding I have a permenant one, and they suçk.(nice use of the odd c, eh? XD)

The first dimension is a line. Heres a breif explanation of the first few dimensions.

0th dimension - A point
1st dimension - A line (length)
2nd dimension - A split (width)
3rd dimension - A fold (depth)
4th dimension - A line - showing something from one point in time, to another (duration)
5th dimension - A split - showing all of the possibilities by the choices we make

The 5th dimension? Now that's a load. Where's the scientific evidence that any of these extra dimensions exist?

The fourth dimension is time, by Einstein's reckoning. I suppose it would cast a 3-D shadow if it was in a 4-D world, but I don't think anyone can actually comprehend that.
