Black Holes Explained

[hkrause]

Joe:"Has a black hole ever tried DMT?"

[-Literally-Spider-Man-]

“Jamie, pull up the video of that bear fighting the black hole”

Professor Brian Cox. An English national treasure. Eloquent, entertaining and happy to spread his knowledge.

[khadijamunawar]

I love how this guy has constant smile on his face...even when he is explaining complicated physics.

“Jamie pull up that video of a grizzly bear fighting a black hole”

[archieharris]

They're moving in the same galactic orbit that they were as a massive star.

[joshuastevens]

Cuts him off right as it gets to the part of the explanation I care about

[laniwhite]

I absolutely adore any and everything about space, and I've heard many different explanations of ehat black holes are, and I can respectfully say that his explanation is by far my favorite to date after years.

[jbw]

"So, what your saying is, you think it could take a grizzly?

[martinmoss]

He has such a way of explaining it makes things so interesting I want to learn more

[GiuseppeGaetanoSabatelli]

"Do they travel? Do they visit Paris and Disney World?"

[Kelberi]

Joe:" Do black holes travel in space?"

Everyone: "everything travels in space"

[techo]

Joe asks 'do they travel, are they moving through space?' Joe's mind is forever enquiring, what a truly entertaining interviewer.

[DasBauer]

Yeah. Put a question at the end. Superb job. /s

[Kratos-xezo]

Joe: "They sound dangerous and all, but a bear could fuck them up"

[RANON]

I used to think it was like a literal hole, where the accretion disk was like matter swirling around the drain to be sucked down.

[NonDrv]

"Nothing can escape"
[Possibley confused hawking radiation noises]

[nightmind]

At least write what he’s saying correctly if you’re going to make a video about it

[oentrepreneur]

'I don't know man, there's nothing a bear can't fuck up"

[fehmuh]

I’m no expert on this but here’s my best understanding of this. The gravity towards the center of the black hole gets infinitely stronger, under that much gravity you actually stretch space infinitely inward which also causes time to essentially stop because when you stretch space under extreme gravity you also stretch time. Think of it like trying to reach the edge of the universe, it’s impossible because the universe is expanding faster than light so you can’t travel quick enough to catch it, same concept except you are going infinitely inward towards a singularity.
