So I asked my teacher what would happen if I fell into a black hole and then shined a light back towards the event horizon. And he said the light would go away from me at c, but also go towards the center of the black hole. OK I understand this would happen if i was in free fall towards the earth, If I threw a ball up while i was in free-fall it would go away from me at a constant speed but also still falling towards Earth in a rest frame from earth. But light always travels at c and it seems like it would still travel towards the event horizon and get heavily red-shifted?
