i was wondering what everyone thought they would see if they fell into a black hole. i know from relativity that from the perspective of me or you on earth, it would take an infinite amount of time for that person to fall in since as they approach the even horizon time dilation becomes very large.
But what about from the perspective of the person falling in (asuming they could servive the tidal forces on their bodies and all the other things trying to kill them). obviously they would see time pass at a normal rate in their referance frame but what would the rest of the universe seem like. i have always thought that as they cross the event horizon they would view all time instantly (i have always also thought that if one could travel at the speed of light they would also see all of time pass in an instant, and could be everywhere in the universe at once). this just seems to make sense to me. i suppose it could be that instead, the person falling in see's the rest of the universe slow down.
if anyone could clear this up for me it would be greatly appreciated.
