Supposed that you have a device that could shift an object's position on the 4th diamension, or had a 4th dimensional friend that can do it casually who could help you do the same, would you survive the process?

Taking it down a notch, would a 2D being survive being manipulated by 3D movement i.e twisting, shifting, fliping, etc?

I would assume so, since in theory all you're doing is moving where you are in space. It might be a problem if it's only done partially over time though

Assuming you mean moving in a different way than we already are, it probably just depends how. Same as with the other 3.

If you move forward 100 metres at 100,000 mph, you arrive in a paste. If you take a vortex approach to movement, paste again.

So how were you planning on moving along the 4th dimension?

    Using the example i listed, i was thinking either a machine functioning sort of like elevators (maybe revolving door better?), or a 4D being touching you to shift where you are like how we rotate a piece of paper.

    Something more subtle like, i doubt we survive a equivalent of being strapped to a rocket
