And also the longest death ever according to the general theory of relativity. As you approach a gravity well, time slows down immensely. Within the event horizon of a black hole, it could take you millions or billions of years to be crushed into your component subatomic particles.

Actually, you would experience time at a normal rate, thus enabling you to "feel" a quick death. It would only appear to take an infinite amount of time to an outside observer, and there can't be outside observers to you dying in a black hole because you'd be crushed to death inside of the event horizon and nothing within the event horizon can be observed.

SO THERE!

True enough, if time slows down inside the event horizon, that means your perception would slow down as well, and therefore you would experience it as time passing normally. However, outside of the event horizon millions to billions of years would pass while you were being pulled, ripped and crushed to death. I didn't say you would have time to listen to all your favorite cds and read your favorite books, etc. As someone else pointed out, your cds would play very slowly as well. Everything inside the event horizon slows down. So the death that took billions of years would seem to the observer within the event horizon to occur almost instantaneously.

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

hahhaha... .... I could dig that...

considering the average life span is... what... 70 odd years.... would finally have a chance to listen to all the albums I have at least. Maybe catch up on adding and evaluating bands here. Even read a few books....

Wouldn't those album play in slow motion, though?

I'd like to fly my ship into that black hole.

She is not a black hole but I think all the boobage may cause one to form. And I'm not joking this time people!

Oh, and by the way, did I mention my wife has fabulous breasts, they belong to us, and you can't have them!!!

There is something more. The Larch.

Yes, yes, The Larch... but, how can it be recognized?

One might ask Mrs. Fiona Lewis about this. Of course Arthur Aldridge and Cardinal Richelieu might have something to add. But now for something completely different. The larch.

I don´t know if you can use the term blackhole... better use african-americanhole instead

Wouldn't that offend the blackholes of non-African origin?

Heyyyy. My wife's an African American and I assure you she is not a blackhole.

Although it wouldn't be like me to be completely serious so I must comment on the Larch, the Larch, the Larch, the Larch.

better use subsaharian-north americanhole,but ¿what happen with this kind of hole ?everybody have holes.
