This would only happen for very small blackholes, and even then from your point of view time would act normally.
- gravitate 4y agoIs there any evidence for time dilation though? My 1000 years number is a rough guess, and it could be shorter or even longer than that. I was thinking since physics breaks down that you would have to endure being spaghettified whilst still being able to feel and have nerves intact and thinking capacity.
- Starlevel001 4y agoRelativity means time slows down for an observer, not for the observed. You would see the universe around you rapidly speed up and eventually die.

For an outside observer it might seem like a long time, but not for you.
- mortenjorck 4y agoEven if your brain is perceiving time normally, even if you’re not experiencing enough acceleration to be crushed yet, I really don’t want to think about the effects of a severe time-dilation gradient on the rest of the body.
