The walls, floor and roof of the elevator acts as the screen projecting Jurassic park simulation.
The spring, pulley and other hardware that exist to operate elevator can be mechanically adjusted to give real time jerks, shakes, sudden short drops etc
And all these while we are inside elevator
wearing a 3d glass and watching simulation of riding a jeep/flying a helicopter in Jurassic park.
Time as a fourth dimension may be obsolete.

So the partial 'weightless' sensation from a rising elevator is
your so-called fourth dimension? I just want to clear up any
confusion with Time, which is what most people think of as
the fourth dimension. |
|
|
Ooh, ooh, I vote for smell as being the 4th dimension in an
elevator. Dinosaur parks, zoos and whatnot would easily be
quite believable. |
|
|
Alterother - yes there are some theories which says 4th dimension refers to time...but here the reference is to 'feel able' motion |
|
|
I'm also not convinced that 4d is appropriate. (But then, I don't accept 3D as properly describing the popular glasses-requiring cinematography technique; the correct term is stereoscopic.) |
|
|
If not smell, maybe Fear could be the fourth dimension. |

|
|
Yes, such as the Theory of General Relativity. |
|
|
[Alterother] That is being questioned (Link). |

Bun for an amazing idea and frustration that you
can't bun annos. |
|
|
//Ooh, ooh, I vote for smell as being the 4th
dimension in an elevator.// is quite simply my
favorite anno of all time. |

Here's how to use this concept for zany hijinks.
Walk into an elevator and instead of turning
around and facing the front, face the back. (An old
standup comedian gag) Then when everybody gets
uncomfortable turn to them and say "You know,
on an elevator, smell is the 4th dimension." |
|
|
Anyway, really really great idea. [+] |

Interesting. I remain stolidly unconvinced. |
