      Not really. When you are buried alive you can't breathe and probably you'll be dead in like 5-10 hours but after like a 15 minutes of suffocation you'd pass out. In a black hole however, you'd see everything around you get smaller and smaller. Your astronaut friend waiting you outside of the event horizon, things that happened seconds before that. Again and again and again and again... After this you'd feel every molecule of you being ripped apart from you while you are aware of what's happening. Every, single molecule. We have millions of blood cells in our body. So, just picture it. And what's even worse is, we don't know what'll happen next. Even after being crushed by a black hole, which is probably the worst and most painful way to die, you're not over. Now, i think being buried alive is horrible but nowhere near this.

      Quiksilverwriter though your nervous system and brain would start being pulled apart at the same time as your body, both on a molecular level, hence rendering you instantly dead or at least unable to feel pain.

Slowly approaching a giant mass of pure darkness while everything you know and love slowly becomes smaller and smaller. On top of that, the uncertainty of when you’ll be ripped to atoms would cause suspense greater than any horror movie villain ever could.

      I recently read a story of a girl with extreme fear of heights that was pressured into bungie jumping, but she was such a nervous wreck and the jump itself was so poorly managed that she accidentally jumped without a rope to her death. It was later determined that she didn't even die from hitting the ground, in mid air she realised she was about to live through her worst fear and die a horrific death, and her adrenaline was so high that she literally died of fear via a heart attack.
      That is to say dw, if it really is that big of a fear for you, at least theres a chance youd die of shock before you ever got spaghettified =]

      If you head to university and take astronomy courses and do the math yourself with the sole purpose to prove that it's all a lie, you'll be hard pressed to find out a lot of the discoveries in space aren't "theories" but scientifically and mathematically confirmed facts.

      Pain isn't instantaneous action.
      Its a reaction, meaning it would take time to send the chemical signals through your cells and perceive the black hole as "painful"

      Sounds like you're having a bit of an existential crisis, my friend. I've always felt that pondering the questions of existence, while infinitely awesome, is also a counterintuitive to mental stability. Sometimes I wish I was a blissfully ignorant person who was consumed only by the small superficial things and never questioned what life really is or why it's here.

    Extra fact: the event horizon cannot be un-crossed because since space is bent by the black hole, even if you went “away” from the black hole with infinite thrust force, all paths would be bent backwards so facing away from the black hole is still facing the black hole.

      That kinda answers my question of "what if we tie a person on a really strong cable, let them cross the event horizon and then pull them back?"
      I initially thought "I'll probably get an answer along the lines of 'the pull would be so great that either the cable would break or it would pull your space ship (or whatever you decided to anchor the cable to)' but instead it sounds much more horrifying... and intriguing.
      So we have essentially no possible or even conceivable way of studying the inside of a black hole past the event horizon. Even if we send a non-human robot or something that can transmit the information, there is no way for it to transmit it back to us because the space is so bent that any information sent in our direction is essentially going back in the direction of the black hole... that is so fascinating.

    This was my first Vsauce video that I've ever watched and I've always come back to this channel every once and a while because of that desire to learn in a digestable form even though I can basically recite most of the videos even how squishy my brain is.
    Micheal will always have an impact on me and my curiousity and if I got to meet him, I'll thank him for it.

    This video puts me to sleep, not because it isn't extremely interesting, rather it uses all my brain capacity causing a shutdown.

      You need to do a hard reset on the pavement.

    imagine being in the photon sphere and all you can see is the back of your head, no matter where you look...that gives me chills

    If Steven Hawking lived 1 more year, he could've seen the picture of a black hole

    fun fact: Schwarzschild is the name of the physicist who discovered the black hole radius, but it also means "black shield" in German

    Today I won 2nd place in a trivia competition because this video taught me what an event horizon was, and it stuck with me for all these years. Thanks for always making engaging videos for so many years!
