Quoted from thetechoutlook page, Friday (11/4/2022), black holes usually eat stars or gas clouds that wander too far from their event horizon or boundary. The processes occurring in it are not visible because they are in a singularity.
A singularity is a very small place that lies beyond the event horizon and has a very strong gravitational field. Consequently, space-time is infinitely curved there. Beyond the event horizon, space-time becomes distorted so that space becomes time and time becomes space.

So what happens if humans fall into or enter a black hole? Obviously the answer is not easy because it depends on a series of variables such as whether they rotate or have an electric charge, because black holes have different complexities.
Therefore, the type of black hole you enter will determine your true destiny. At the most basic level, black holes can be divided into three groups, namely stellar-mass black holes, supermassive black holes, and medium-mass black holes.
For example, supermassive black holes are thought to grow to extreme masses, reaching tens of billions of times more massive than the Sun. This black hole is capable of eating stars and merging with other black holes.
A stellar-mass black hole appears to be slightly smaller than a supermassive black hole, but has stronger tidal forces just beyond its event horizon. Smaller black holes show a more pronounced gravitational gradient, even after a very short fall.

If you fell into a supermassive black hole as soon as it forms, you would reach singularity within hours. The tidal forces as you approach the singularity will be very strong and unpredictable.
Not only will you be torn apart, but space and time as well. They will split into droplets, destroying the concept of past and future.
If you fall into a stellar black hole, your body will undergo a process called spaghetti making. The gravitational pull of the black hole will push you from head to toe, stretching you at the same time as the spaghetti.
Known as spaghetti making by scientists because the black hole’s gravity presses on your body horizontally while pulling it vertically like a chocolate bar. The force of gravity on your toes would be much stronger than on your head if your feet first fell into the black hole.
Also, each part of your body will extend in different directions. In fact, you will look like a piece of spaghetti. Of course, the intense gravity will eventually tear you apart in any black hole you fall into.
There is no way out. You can still escape by traveling faster than the speed of light, even if you are still alive.
