1
Imagine that you're flying through space, when suddenly you start to get dragged toward a dark abyss.
2
Reality as you know it starts to change.
3
Time begins to warp and… "So you start to feel this strange sensation of being stretched." You're falling into a black hole,
4
one of the most astonishing places in our universe.
5
Some are so big that they can fit over 60 of our solar systems across them, with masses up to 100 billion times our sun.
6
And once you fall past a certain point, nothing can escape.
7
Or can it?
8
I wanted to know the latest cutting -edge research about black holes, so I called up my favorite physicist, Dr. Brian Cox.
9
To answer the question, If you fell into a black hole, what would actually happen to you?
10
What would it feel like?
11
And what does our newest science tell us is really happening?
12
Inside a black hole.
13
Black holes.
14
Black holes.
15
Black holes.
16
One of the strangest things in existence.
17
A mathematical enigma.
18
You've come face to face with the structure of space and time.
19
Don't let me leave, Murph!
20
Spaghettification.
21
Black holes ain't so black.
22
Nature doesn't work that way.
23
It's the most wonderful thing.
24
It's incredible.
25
Imagine that you and I are on a mission to fall into a black hole.
26
And we have some imaginary spaceship that can take us as far and as fast as we want.
27
So we get into our spaceship.
28
What now?
29
What is a black hole and how do we find them?
30
So essentially what's the idea behind a black hole?
31
Let's say you take the sun, a star, the mass of the sun.
32
And you just collapse it.
33
And you keep on collapsing it.
34
And you squash it down.
35
becomes three kilometers.
36
Three.
37
If you artificially squashed all of that mass into that tiny little space, the gravity, right at its surface, would be immense.
38
So immense that if you wanted to escape… The speed you'd have to travel to escape its gravitational pull, it's called the escape velocity, would exceed the speed of light.
39
So even light rays emitted from the surface, if you could squash it down that far, would just stay there.
40
That is a black hole. can escape.
41
At first, black holes were just a mathematical quirk, a weird solution to equations that seemed to otherwise fit our universe.
42
They were only theoretical. But then...
43
we started to find them.
44
Over decades, scientists measured the movement of stars and galaxies and gases that were warped by seemingly empty patches of space.
45
Left behind, we now know, by the collapsing death of stars much larger than our sun.
46
We discovered that black holes are real.
47
We can now tell they're all over our universe.
48
Some estimates say they're up to 40 quintillion of them.
49
And almost every galaxy has a supermassive black hole at its center including our own Milky Way.
50
Let's go.
51
Let's imagine that we choose the black hole at the center of our own galaxy.
52
Yeah.
53
Sagittarius A star, I think it's called.
54
I know that we took this picture of it.
55
What are we looking at here?
56
So here, the light, you might say, what is the light in this picture?
57
So it's not from the black hole, because we just said black holes trap light.
58
It's from what's called the accretion disk.
59
Say, what?
60
You're to imagine material spiraling around in orbit, around this very dense object, and very violently orbiting.
61
And so it heats up and emits light.
62
Wait, so then why in this photo do we not see the accretion disk across the middle?
63
Well, it turns out that we happen to be seeing this particular black hole from above.
64
But if you were to see it from edge on, something very weird starts to happen.
65
behind the black hole.
66
Because the black hole's gravity is so immense, it's causing light to be bent and distorted around it.
67
- So imagine this disc of material around this thing.
68
Then light rays, let's say from your perspective, from behind the black hole, go around into your eyes.
69
Sometimes they orbit and then go around into your eyes.
70
And they go into your eyes from every point on the disc, from underneath and at the top and behind.
71
So you see that, that's what you see as an image.
72
And in our little spaceship, we're getting closer.
73
As we approach, I start to wonder, how big is this thing?
74
Based on the way it pulls at the stars around it, scientists estimate that the black hole at the center of our galaxy has a mass of 4 .3 million times our sun.
75
But if you plopped it down inside our solar system, this black hole would only extend to about one -fifth of Mercury's average orbit.
76
small for its immense mass.
77
And compared to other black holes, ours is just Medium.
78
One of the smallest black holes ever found is J1650.
79
Its diameter is only about as long as Manhattan, but it has a mass of 3 .8 times our sun.
80
One step up would be the black hole in Messier 15.
81
It's about twice the diameter of Earth, with a mass of 4 ,000 suns.
82
Okay, now we're at the lower limit of what's considered a supermassive black hole.
83
This one is just under half the diameter of our sun, but about 100 ,000 times its mass.
84
And here's Sagittarius A *.
85
Now to the truly insane.
86
The black hole in the galaxy M87 weighs 5 .4 billion suns.
87
You could fit our solar system around four times across it.
88
It was the first one we ever got a picture of in 2019.
89
And this is one of the largest black holes ever discovered: Ton 618.
90
It weighs 66 billion times more than our sun.
91
And it could fit nearly 40 of our solar systems across it.
92
But it might not be the biggest. of 100 billion suns.
93
But since this black hole is closer, we're seeing what it looks like more recently than TUN 618, which might have grown since.
94
And these are just the biggest ones we know of.
95
There could be an even more massive one, just waiting to be found.
96
And now we're starting to get pulled into one.
97
So we're falling towards this thing now, and we turn our rocket motors off.
98
We're just in free fall.
99
We're just floating.
100
So We're just there.
101
So we could be.
102
approaching this in this room now and we would have no clue that that's what's happening.
103
What about when we're in the accretion desk?
104
Wouldn't we be banged around by a lot of stuff?
105
We might get in a bit of a mess as we fell through the accretion desk.
106
You're absolutely right.
107
It's a bit nasty around these things.
108
But let's say that our room, this spacecraft, is magically insulated from radiation and heat and all those things.
109
Then nothing.
110
One of the most shocking things, from the point of view of someone outside, the description is very different.
111
Okay, now imagine you, yes, you, watching this.
112
You go outside and you look with an all -powerful telescope at me and Brian, light years away.
113
So what would they see happening to us?
114
as we fall towards this thing, as we approach the black hole, if they could see our watches, they would see our time tick more slowly,
115
more slowly, more slowly, and they would see our time stop on the horizon.
116
Stop.
117
This is incredibly important.
118
As we get closer to the black hole, there are now actually two journeys.
119
There's our journey as we see it, and then there's our journey as you would see it from far away.
120
And they are very different.
121
Why?
122
Because black holes are There's something weird there, but there isn't, according to Einstein.
123
Albert Einstein was the one who realized that space and time are actually one thing: space -time.
124
And space -time is stretchy.
125
Space -time responds, warps or curves, to matter and energy in the universe.
126
The theory that Einstein published will say, "Give me a ball of matter," and the equations will tell you how the fabric of the universe is distorted.
127
A black hole is the most extreme example of this distortion that we know about.
128
The math tells us that reality very close to it, and very far from it, are not the same.
129
So it looks to us like the universe is speeding up, and it looks to you like we're moving in slow motion.
130
Now we're crossing the line where no light can ever escape to reach you again.
131
For us, we don't feel that.
132
But for you, you never actually see us cross it at all.
133
They would never see us fall in.
134
From the point of view of someone outside, nothing goes into the black hole.
135
Ever.
136
us imprinted there forever or does the light from us slowly fade until...
137
This light is climbing away through this gravitational field
138
so it's getting stretched so we get redder and redder and redder, infinitely redshifted.
139
And from our perspective there's no turning back.
140
You can write the equations as a space being like a river
141
that flows into this thing almost like a sinkhole
142
or something in space
143
and the river of space flows at the speed of light inwards on the horizon and then faster than light inside.
144
So if you imagine that you're a photon, a particle of light, you're like a little fish swimming against the tide.
145
But if the tide's going at the speed of as fast as you can swim, the speed of light, you can't get out.
146
We're now past the event horizon.
147
But before I show you what's inside this black hole, let me show you something here on Earth.
148
I am finally building Huge If True's first website and I'm really excited about it.
149
The reason why I think we need one is that we obviously have our home on YouTube, but we need some place to tell you about the show, about different things that we're doing, and maybe sell some merch very soon.
150
Wait, I think I have a sneak peek.
151
Yeah, you'll see me wearing this a lot.
152
And it's got this cool If True one thing.
153
And I can build our site with Hostinger, our sponsor.
154
Clicked here, I got a business plan, which has a bunch of cool features, including an AI logo maker, if you're looking to just brainstorm ideas.
155
And of course, if you're looking to sell something, it has e -commerce features.
156
And I just start building.
157
I'm using their AI website builder, which is fun.
158
It can even write copy that's very good for SEO, which makes things easier.
159
If you want to build your own site, I've really been enjoying using Hostinger, and I think you might too.
160
And right now they're offering you, the huge crew, 10 % off if you use the coupon code CLIO.
161
Make sure you use it if you sign up, because that helps this channel.
162
independent journalism.
163
Now, let me take you inside a black hole.
164
We're past the event horizon, but we're still falling and falling.
165
And finally, ah, we begin to feel something.
166
Gravity is increasing faster and faster.
167
And this is where we get to maybe my favorite word that I have learned in the process of this.
168
My understanding of this is when the gravity at your feet is so different This is spaghettification.
169
Could you explain what is happening here?
170
Yeah.
171
Another way of thinking about it is just
172
that the distortion in space -time is not constant over the length of your body.
173
It's not only stretching, it's also a squashing.
174
You start to feel this strange sensation of being stretched and squashed.
175
And as you go closer and closer to the singularity, those effects become much more extreme.
176
Until they're so extreme that first of all, you cease to stay together.
177
We're one long string of atoms?
178
What are we?
179
Yeah, and then the atoms get separated and then the protons, the quarks inside the protons will get separated and ultimately everything is gone.
180
Everything's been ripped apart.
181
And all the ripped apart pieces that used to be us are still racing inward toward the singularity.
182
I think it's really tempting to picture it as some infinitely dense point to which this star collapsed.
183
But since a black hole is a distortion of space -time, the singularity is not just a place, it's also a moment in time.
184
And it's in fact the end of time in Einstein's theory.
185
It becomes something that's in the future for anyone or anything that crosses the horizon.
186
So it's like, if you say, "Well, I want to escape this thing," it's like saying, "I want to escape tomorrow." If I said to you, "Let's run away from tomorrow," you'd go, "I can't run away from tomorrow,
187
it's in the future." That's what this thing behaves like, singularity.
188
If imagining the center of a black hole as "the end of time" feels like your brain is getting "spaghettified,"
189
It's okay, bye!
190
It's about to get weirder.
191
So we have passed through the event horizon, we have been spaghettified, we have hit the end of time.
192
The question is, can we ever get back out?
193
So the answer is, according to Einstein's theory, no. Einstein would say it's all over, you've got ripped to bits,
194
you've gone to this infinitely distorted space and time, and it's just done.
195
What would Stephen Hawking say?
196
Stephen Hawking discovered that black holes, which according to Einstein's math, nothing should ever escape and they should only live and grow forever as they just suck in mass around them,
197
something actually does get away.
198
What's called Hawking radiation is emitted from the black hole.
199
So what is that?
200
Particles being emitted, it's a temperature, it's glowing.
201
And so that means it's losing energy, and so that means it has a lifetime.
202
And that means one day it will be gone and space will
203
will be the Hawking radiation that's been emitted over these eons of time.
204
Okay, I think something is missing from my understanding of the universe.
205
I agree with you, something is missing in my understanding as well, and everybody else's.
206
Here's what I think is missing from mine right now.
207
So all of this matter has, including us, passed through the event horizon, ended up at the singularity.
208
It is something in there.
209
Yeah.
210
At the end of time.
211
And also, I know that every law that that we have about the universe says that information is conserved.
212
If a black hole will one day end up as nothing, what happened to you and me?
213
What happened to all of that stuff?
214
I mean, this is the central question.
215
So, um, Stephen's initial calculation was the Hawking radiation is information free, purely thermal.
216
So that would suggest, as you said, that the information, any record of anything that fell in will have been erased.
217
clear on this.
218
Information does not get destroyed in the universe.
219
It gets scrambles but doesn't get destroyed.
220
So that's what bothered everybody.
221
What happened?
222
What's the end of the story?
223
Did we answer the question?
224
So at the end of the story, We're not at the end of the story yet, but in 2019, a series of papers were published.
225
Those papers suggest that Stephen missed a bit in his calculation.
226
Very subtle.
227
But it turns out that the radiation is not information free.
228
At the end of the process, then all the information about everything that fell in is imprinted in the radiation, as you would normally expect.
229
On the one hand, that makes sense, because then the information is not destroyed.
230
weirder.
231
Because how then did the information, which went to the singularity and the end of time, and get outside again? as radiation.
232
But you say, well, what's the picture then?
233
What happened?
234
Because I understand if I take this and throw it into the black hole, it's gone across the horizon.
235
It's gone to the singularity.
236
It's definitely true that nothing comes out of the black hole.
237
So how is this information about this thing?
238
getting imprinted in the radiation.
239
And I should emphasize as a health warning here, this is ongoing research and there is no agreed upon picture.
240
This is the cutting edge of research into black holes.
241
One description of our perspective is, yeah, we go to the singularity, we get all scrambled up.
242
And then it looks like the interior of the black hole is in some sense the same place as the exterior.
243
You could almost picture wormholes opening up to the exterior and very naively,
244
you imagine our bits of information going through the wormholes and coming out again.
245
We end up outside.
246
The information ends up outside in the Hawking radiation.
247
Even as I say this, there are papers being written saying different things.
248
It's really cutting edge stuff.
249
- Different things like, well, maybe you never go in.
250
Maybe there actually is no in of a black hole.
251
Or maybe everything is just information with no real place at all.
252
And now my brain is breaking.
253
look like that there is a description of the universe.
254
That looks like a giant quantum computer which does not imply that someone built it right?
255
It doesn't even we're in a simulation
256
but it does suggest that there's a a good description of reality
257
that you can write down in the form of some kind of network of entangled qubits.
258
Something like that.
259
And I think it's fair to say that the jury is still out on these issues.
260
But the thing to emphasize is it's really, there's something really fundamental going on here.
261
And it probably, it almost certainly is associated with the nature of space and time.
262
themselves or space -time.
263
Black holes are an incredible gift because they stretch the limits of our understanding of our universe.
264
We struggle with it, but it's hard for us.
265
You start to come face to face with the.. with what?
266
With the structure of space and time.
267
In their strangeness, their extremeness, black holes reveal the hidden structure of reality that governs everything, including our everyday lives.
268
You're studying completely collapsed stars or the things at the
269
And you're gaining insight into quantum computers and networks of qubits and quantum information.
270
It's the most wonderful thing.
271
It's incredible.
272
One of the things that I really admire about you
273
and your work is that you have this sense of wonder at the universe.
274
You give that sense of wonder back to people.
275
You say, hey, don't you remember what it was like when you were a little kid looking up at the sky?
276
as you learn more about the universe, that sense of wonder can increase, not decrease.
277
Yeah.
278
And I think that's really special.
279
And I think that people need that.
280
And first, I just wanted to say thank you.
281
Thank you.
282
And second, My last question for you is, how do you feel when you go outside and look up at the night sky,
283
given what you know?
284
The sense of all.
285
and the sense of mystery and beauty increases the more you know about what you're looking at.
286
It doesn't decrease.
287
The number of mysteries increases the more you look at it.
288
So anybody watching this, if it's a clear night, you can go outside.
289
You can look in the direction of the centre of the galaxy and wonder about it.
290
But the more you understand about nature, the more mysterious and magical it becomes.

O que você vai aprender
Nesse vídeo, você desenvolve três habilidades essenciais para falar inglês com fluidez: primeiro, a capacidade de seguir conversas técnicas (sobre buracos negros!) com termos específicos, como "spaghettification" ou "accretion disc". Segundo, a prática de entender a entonação em diálogos informais, com perguntas e respostas que fluem naturalmente. E terceiro, a habilidade de capturar nuances na pronúncia de palavras longas, como "singularity" ou "Hawking radiation". Tudo isso é perfeito para quem quer usar o shadowing em inglês como ferramenta de aprendizado!
Ouça esses sons
No áudio, preste atenção nas conexões entre palavras. Por exemplo, "what if I fell" é pronunciado quase como "whadif I fell" (com a "t" de "what" suprimida). Outro exemplo é "it's a bit nasty" — a "t" de "it's" se funde com o "a", ficando "its a bit nasty". Também há reduções, como "don't let me leave" que vira "don' lemme leave". Esses detalhes ajudam a melhorar a pronúncia em inglês e a se comunicar de forma mais natural.
Fale como um nativo
Para imitar o ritmo do falante, siga a ênfase nas palavras-chave. No trecho "black holes are an incredible gift", a ênfase está em "incredible" e "gift". Na pergunta "what would it feel like?", a voz sobe no final, como é comum em perguntas. Use um shadowing site para praticar: repita frases como "time begins to warp" imitando a velocidade e a entonação. Lembre-se: o shadow speech funciona melhor quando você se concentra não só nas palavras, mas no fluxo da conversa. Aprender inglês com YouTube nunca foi tão eficaz!
Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| Frases condicionais if + oração, will/would + verbo — uma condição e seu resultado | If a black hole will one |
| Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem faz | being stretched · were warped · be bent |
| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | You've come · have learned · Everything's been ripped |
| Orações relativas who / which + oração — informação extra sobre uma pessoa ou coisa | one who realized · plan, which has · builder, which is |
O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
