This intriguing piece delves into the realms of extreme origami and mathematics, probing concepts that stretch our understanding of dimensions and probability. It intertwines mathematical principles with philosophical questions around ESP, ghosts, and déjà vu, while also referencing the famous "Monty Hall problem." A fascinating exploration of how easily we can dismiss explanations that seem intuitively simple, it also maps the stages of grief—denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance—into our understanding of complex issues. Join us on this mathematical journey through dimensions and intuitive reasoning.
