It isn't a portal to another dimension like in sci fi movies but it's real

Do you have data to support this theory?

Pretty self explanatory, if it's a dense enough object that it crushes light particles then I'd assume no human being is going to survive going into it

Some scientists believe that the inverse of a black hole is a white hole. Infinitely bright, and matter can never enter it. A Penrose diagram is typically used to represent this theory. Some think that the “other side” of a black hole might actually be a parallel universe, but it’s a one way trip because you can’t ever escape a black hole or enter a white hole once it spits you out. There’s no empirical evidence for the existence of white holes, and most physicists consider them to be purely theoretical. But it’s a fun thought that I wish Christopher Nolan would hear about lol

You'd think we would have seen an infinitely bright object with a telescope long before we discovered a totally dark object

You’d certainly think so! It’s all just based on the idea that the laws of physics are symmetrical, so if a black hole can swallow matter and information, a white hole should be able to spew it out.

Oh it'll spit out the "matter" you were made of but I highly doubt you'd still be alive

But we really don’t know that because we don’t know what’s behind the event horizon. A supermassive black hole like Sgr A* wouldn’t spagettify you though. You could theoretically pass the event horizon alive

I thought all black holes spaghettify you? How can you determine whether they would or not

If a SMBH was large enough, the tidal forces at the event horizon could theoretically be lessened to where you could survive. But things would be really cool way before then.

Edit: this video explains it a little at the 4 minute mark (and is really cool)
