What If We Could Open a Portal to a Parallel Universe?

Sometimes asking crazy questions is the best way to learn about the world.

There could be another you existing in another world somewhere, maybe as far away as a galaxy or maybe right next to your fingertips. Scientists are even trying to work out how to open a door to a new universe at Oak Ridge Laboratory in Tennessee by beaming particles at a wall and seeing when, or if, they pass through. If they do, it means they entered a mirror world right next to ours. So what would happen if we actually could open a portal to a parallel universe?
