Comment on Would moving/shifting in the 4th (spacial) dimension be fatal?

I think you’d immediately collapse into a wrinkled-up ball.
The Pauli exclusion principle keeps particles like electrons from occupying the same physical space, which is what makes them take up volume and gives atoms and molecules their size. If they were free to move in an extra spatial dimension, they could pack much closer together, and their volume would collapse.
