Contrary to what the narrator says in the end, this funny exercise of viewing all possibilities and initial conditions as transitioning through new "dimensions" seems to have very little to do with the ten dimensions in which superstrings purportedly live - those are something much simpler, namely our spacetime supplied with 6 additional spatial directions. Scanning the possibilities of collapsing the many worlds quantum wave etc is something completely separate from these higher dimensions of space. In fact, it seems a gross simplification to describe all the superpositions of many worlds quantum mechanics as one additional dimension.
