In a recent video by Tibees (Toby who I have a huge crush on), a fascinating theory about the nature of dark matter was proposed. The theory suggests that dark matter could be the gravitational pull of galaxies from the fourth dimension. This idea is based on the concept of a folded universe, where light is confined to two dimensions, but gravity is not.
The presenter uses the example of a 2D friend living in a 2D universe. For the 2D friend, their world is flat. They can only see in two dimensions - left/right and forward/backward. But what if our 3D universe was just like this? What if we are living in a 3D universe that is folded in a 4D universe?
This is where the idea of dark matter comes in. According to the theory, dark matter could be the gravitational pull of galaxies in the fourth dimension. Since gravity is not confined to our three dimensions, it can reach us from these fourth-dimensional galaxies. However, because light is confined to our three dimensions, we cannot see these galaxies. This would explain why we can feel the effects of dark matter (through gravity), but we cannot see it.
This theory is purely speculative and has not been proven. However, it offers a fascinating new perspective on the nature of dark matter and the structure of our universe. It suggests that our universe may be far more complex and multidimensional than we currently understand.
This theory also raises many other interesting questions. For example, if gravity can traverse dimensions, what does this mean for our understanding of other fundamental forces? Do they also traverse dimensions, or are they confined to our three-dimensional universe? And if gravity is a 4D element, does this mean that other elements could also exist in higher dimensions?
This theory is certainly mind-boggling and has the potential to revolutionize our understanding of the universe. However, it is important to note that this is just a theory and further research and evidence are needed to support it. But regardless of whether this theory is proven or not, it is a fascinating reminder of the complexity and mystery of our universe.
Is Gravity 4D
- Dark matter could be the gravitational pull of galaxies from the fourth dimension
- The theory is based on the concept of a folded universe where light is confined to two dimensions, but gravity is not

Interesting questions this theory raises:
- If gravity can traverse dimensions, what does this mean for our understanding of other fundamental forces?
- Do other fundamental forces also traverse dimensions?
- If gravity is a 4D element, does this mean that other elements could also exist in higher dimensions?
