Reply to comment by -Cheebus- in I don’t believe in the black hole. by Rabbitlooker

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)
