Michio Kaku - Are There Extra Dimensions?

Extra dimensions—beyond length, width, height—seem like the stuff of science fiction. What would extra #dimensions be like?

Michio Kaku is an American theoretical physicist, the Henry Semat Professor of Theoretical Physics in the City College of New York of City University of New York, a futurist, and a communicator and popularizer of science. He has written several books about physics and related topics; he has made frequent appearances on radio, television, and film; and he writes extensive online blogs and articles. He has written two New York Times Best Sellers, Physics of the Impossible (2008) and Physics of the Future (2011).

If there is other dimensions, i hope there is one where the volume to this video is higher

I love how Michio Kaku explain a complex topic in a simple way with analogies. He is a very intelligent physicist. He would be the best teacher in university.

[liltunafish]

Love how he’s able to explain something so complex in simple relatable ways

[friedpicklezzz]

Isn’t it amazing how humans have evolved to be able to theorize these concepts?
In a way that almost feels like we ourselves can move into another dimension.

MK: "Let me tell you a story."

Me: *listening intensifies*

The interviewer did a really great job.

This guy explains stuff so good I wish he was my teacher mate.

[mystichimes]

Incredible scientist. Incredible personality. The way he describes incredibly complicated concepts is astounding. I'm addicted. Respect 🙏

If Michio Kaku were my teacher I would've become a physicist.

I love all his analogies, their brilliant, it hurts my head trying to comprehend something that we don’t know for a fact. But.. I then think that, the universe has no obligation to make sense to you!

There are things that cannot be seen but truly exist

I just found this show and love it. The interviewer and host is underrated. It's very impressive to be able to have an intelligent conversation with experts across all of these different domains.

[shaneishmael]

Wow! He explained the topic very well that even I—with my very limited undertstanding of science—understood it. Thank you so much. 🙂

[evilgary]

I'm almost as much impressed by the interviewer as I am with Kaku himself.
Good job guys!

Man their outlook on life most be way different than the average human being due the their knowledge. Wish I could see the world through that knowledge. ugh, we waste so much time with trivial stuff when we could be getting closer to real power which is understating existence through knowledg. Just my thought.

I feel like I just heard a super-genius interview a mega-genius, and the super-genius' questions helped me understand the mega-genius' answers.

[nickfikatas]

This guy knows a lot about this topic. He should become a physicist.

[Distractiononly]

How fun to be able to play with these concepts as someone fluent in mathematics and physics. To speak the mathematical language well enough to move beyond equations into abstractions and philosophy.

I love MK, such a blessing to human kind. Imagine spending your life and dedicating it to understanding this crazy, miraculous and extremely unlikely existence we call life and everything in it. I wish I could wrap my head around all the knowledge this guy holds

[marielynnnotrobinson]

I've read several of MK's books and I not only think his theories are right but I also think he's one of the super smart people who has issues. Nobody as sharp as Miko can keep it together. I totally admire him at the same time I pray for him. Genius and society don't mix and this dude is a genius.
