According to a physics scientist by the name of Shrogminer (or sumtin liek that) says that there are 10 + dimensions on the planet earth. The first 3 are length, width and hieght. The 4th is time. What do u think the other dimensions are? Any ideas?

They are parallel universes.

Modern theoretical physics says there are eleven dimensions that contain all of the endless possible universes. The "other" six dimensions contain all of the things we can't see/feel within this universe. For instance in "our" universe there are four fundamental forces at work, the "strong" and "weak" nuclear force which hold atoms together, the electromagnetic force which works on groups of atoms/matter/electrons/charges, and gravity which strangely enough is the weakest of the forces yet it is what holds the planets in their orbits and galaxies together. The latest theory seem to point to a conclusion that all of these forces which appear to be uneven in "our" universe are all equal at the eleventh dimensional level.
The big problem is that all of this works out on paper but also predicts that much of it can never be proved within our limited dimensional view.

Charge, spin, color, flavor, strangeness, and charm.
HTH ☺

PS: There are a lot of folks (including me) who believe that the list of 'dimensions' (that is, independent measurements) is probably unbounded.
