Why Can't Anything Escape a Black Hole?

[Sveinbjoern]

Nothing can escape a black hole.. Not even light.. This argument made sense to me just minutes ago. But a sudden realization later and I could not understand it anylon more . This is why I searched for physics and forum and arrived here. I am a hobbist and listen to a lot of videos about special relativity, quantum mechanics, astronomy, programming and mathmatics. A wide range of interests. But since I have never in any discussion about special relativity or talks about black holes I knew I was in need of some help! So that's why I am here and hope I can ask and learn more stuff!
