Imagine you're playing tag with your friend, and suddenly they zoom past you super fast, that's like what happens when someone falls into a black hole.
A black hole is like a giant vacuum cleaner in space. It’s so strong that nothing can escape it, not even light. So if someone goes near it, they get pulled in really quickly, just like how you're pulled toward the ground when you jump.
Now, imagine you're watching your friend fall into this super-strong vacuum cleaner from far away. Because of how strange space is around a black hole, it looks like time slows down for them, almost like they're moving through molasses. You might think they’ll never reach the end.
But if you were the one falling in, you wouldn’t see the end of the universe. Instead, you'd just feel everything getting squished as you go deeper into the black hole, it’s more like being squeezed inside a giant cosmic accordion!
So no, someone falling into a black hole doesn’t get to see the end of the universe, they probably don't even notice it coming!
