  1. nope u will be stretch longer


  2. I don't think you would survive long enough to feel such effects. Radiation from other stuff falling into the black hole would incinerate you long before you could get that close.

  3. I don't think you would be ripped apart, you would undergo instantaneous compression into the size of an atom.  I'm betting that if it happens, it would be to fast to feel anything.

  4. No.  The human in question would cross the threshold (possibly before they even crossed the event horizon) of physical pain, and lose consciousness.

  5. They are all righ.  You would not feel a thing but you know why?? Guess not??  I dont either!!!!

  6. Probably yes.

  7. S/he wouldn't feel a thing because it would happen too fast - the difference in gravity between the upper and lower body would make mist out of anything.

    The huge gravitational field would also create the relativistic effect of slowing time for the unfortunate person, who would perceive millions of years flashing by outside the black hole while someone watching would see the person frozen at the event horizon! The person would die instantly in his or her time but not from ours.

  8. That's sort of like asking, "Does it hurt to get shot in the brain, and die an instant death?"

    The world may never know.

    If light can't escape the gravity of a black hole, we would fall in there SO fast that we wouldn't feel ANYTHING.

    That, and the fact that you don't get "ripped".  You experience spaghetification.  No joke.  Again, it happens fast.

    Hope that helped.

  9. Yes, for a short time. The field varies so much over small scales you wouldn't live very long at all. If you fell in sideways you'd not feel much at all before you died. If you were spinning it would probably make a mess.

    Dont go near black holes, kids.

  10. ok,first things first,there is no escape from a black hole,perhaps,one day when humans can reach a speed that is greater than light,you might be able to escape its gravitational pull(but i extremely doubt that).

    You would feel as if your limbs are being streched to its extremeties and your blood boil and freeze at the same time,(if your not wearing a space suit of course) in a matter of seconds your life would be over.There is the slightest chance that the black hole can be a worm hole and transport you millions and billions of light years away to the "other end"

    But thats just a theory. Hope you find this subject as interesting as i do. And im only 13!
