Haven't seen that one, but it's the best explanation of 4D i've ever seen. Also, the mobius loop bit was cool.

I've known all the möbius loop stuff from Numberphile and Vsauce, but the parts about shadows and cross-sections of 4D objects in our 3D world was awesome and pretty mindblowing.
I'd love some kind of sci-fi horror about a creepy 4D world sipping into ours based on the stuff he shows.

I like how simple his explanation of a closed system is.
I find the topic he hits on near the end where it’s predicted that all information will be separated by an impossible to reach distance due to the limitation of light speed disturbing.
I know this isn’t how it works but somewhere I read or heard about (can’t remember) a proposed intelligent life form in the future that will never be able to know if there’s anything out there (including light) because everything that exists is moving away in the universe that’s expanding faster than the speed of light.
