There was not a single thought experiment that led to my theory.  The 
development of my theory was in general a lot of individual ideas most of which 
led to dead ends.  Remember what we have now is Version 8, and I have been 
working on this thing for more than 13 years.  There are a huge number of 
errors inversions 1 through 7.  As far as I know there are no errors in Version 
8 (except for a few typos and grammar issues), but I expect there may be a few 
significant ones that I don’t know of.  If and when I am aware of an error I 
will do my best to correct it.  In several places I have guessed at the truth, 
but in those cases I have tried to make clear that it was a guess.  For 
example, in Chapter XXV, Life and Death of Universes, I have guessed that our 
Universe is the 47th universe.  I did this by assuming that the first universe 
was about the size of a single galaxy and that the sizes of universes double 
with each cycle.

OK, maybe your theory IS crazy enough to be true! I doubt it, but it does at 
least appear to have a certain elegance at this point. (I will reserve 
judgement on the wall at the edge of the universe and so on...)

You mention in chapter 2 that you were led to this idea by a thought 
experiment, but you don't say any more about the genesis of the idea. Often 
giving the line of thought that led to an idea can either support it (e.g. 
Einstein and the equivalence principle) or show up flaws in it.

So, what was this thought experiment?
