It’s absolutely real. The team might suck right now, but the fans are incredibly passionate. It hasn’t been the same since moving the team from Oakland to Las Vegas however.

What amazes me is that people like Hawking and Einstein did a lot of this just by making thought experiments.

There are actually valid criticisms of the theoretical models for black holes. It's possible that the objects we are observing aren't the same as the mathematical models we have of black holes.
We have good reason to believe that our models have a pretty good lead on how these objects behave though.

Well to be fair to the OP, they might not be. In the current idea of what they are, aren't Bose stars or gravstars or whatever their called a possibility?

That's okay, science doesn't care if you believe in it, because it still continues to science

This might blow your mind too, but the earth is a globe.

Time continues at its normal pace for all observers. What would happen is that you would not see the other person on the other side of the horizon ever again. They would both fall into the center after being spaghettified.

That's okay. It doesn't need you to believe in it.

I'm no expert but we have images. Do you need someone to go get spaghettified for proof? We couldn't even observe that btw.

I think Stargate tv series did a really good example of this and what would happen.
A matter of time S2:E15.
