Why Do Black Holes Spark the Universe?

Imagine a black hole like a super-strong vacuum cleaner in space. It pulls everything, even light, into it. But when stuff goes inside the black hole, it gets squished and heated up until it bursts out as bright light or energy, like a firework show in the universe. This is called an explosion from a black hole.
