Your comment is nonsense.

This collection of videos says many times that branching universes are created through "chance, choice and the actions of others". Most quantum outcomes are random, no question, but unless you're one of those grim and sad hard determinists you have to believe free will is also in there.
So what is the point of misquoting what the video says and then saying you disagree with your misquote? You are deliberately spreading bogus disinformation.

As Cosmologist Max Tegmark of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology says: "The critique of many worlds is shifting from 'it makes no sense and I hate it' to simply 'I hate it'."
Please look up Many Worlds Interpretation in wikipedia. Lots of scientists agree with MWI. Most of the branching universes available from any particular "now" are being created one planck length at a time by random quantum outcomes.
Einstein agreed with Kaluza that our universe is defined at the fifth dimension.

!WARNING!

This is not real science.
This is not real mathematics.

This whole collection of videos is bogus. The move from the 4th to the 5th dimension is not determined by a human observer being "stretched" into a tube. Think about it. The entire universe has to be seen as moving in a giant tube. The fifth dimension is certainly not determined by "all branching choices" a human makes. That's ludicrous. A child could see through this.

It is as if the video is suggesting Human-free-will choices determine the fifth dimension. It's nonsense.

I just don't get the whole folding idea D:

hypothetically it is yes. if a transversable wormhole was created then yes.

Do you know of any physicists that are treating the theory or relativity as an emergent property of something like string theory?

Instead of trying to unify them, show that one emerges from the laws of the others.

i had to watch it twice, but it really puts things into perspective. i actually understand it somewhat, though im sure this is just scratching the surface...

From what I understand, all 10 or 11 dimensions are contained within the brane our universe is located in. And then there are extra dimensions outside of our universe's brane. What I'm wandering is if you are thinking of the higher dimensions as outside our brane? It's hard to imagine all those higher dimensions as the compacted extra dimensions of our brane.

The version of brane cosmology that ties nicely to this way of visualizing says that our universe is created by the interaction of a D3 brane and D7 brane - this presentation says that our 3D universe is constrained at the seventh dimension, so I like that as a connection. I talk about this in vlog entries like "Time in 3 Dimensions", "Hypercubes and Plato's Cave", and "The Omniverse", please watch those if you'd like to pursue this line of reasoning further.
Thanks for writing!
