Ever wondered what it would be like if you were in a black hole?

Well stop wondering because you are in one! We are all in one! THIS whole Universe exists inside a black hole, and only those outside THIS universe are able to recognise it.

How could we be in one? I always thought that a black hole sucks you in, then spits what's left of your rather stretched body into some universal waste-dump or something - like a deadly wormhole. It's not like you idle around inside examining your nails or anything, right?

Curious.

If you were to be shrunk down to the size of an atom and were to attempt to reach out and grab an electron, proton, or neutron, could you? They are not matter, but merely compressed osolating forms of energy. These sub-atomic particles are not particles at all, but are indeed light.

So, what in nature do we know of exists that can compress light?

Black holes?

Perhaps we are not in one, but is matter a bi-product of light that has been through a black hole?
