Hum,
Information tapped in BHs still has me breaking out in a sweat.


But yes,
I realise that it’s an unintuitive way of looking at the black hole.
One would assume that the inside was just the same as the outside.
After all, all that has changed is the geometry of space-time (it has become steeper so that light cannot climb out of the gravity well).

To an outside observer it would appear that time would have stopped etc.

However, if we remember that Hawking basically used our normal space-time in his `no-hair theorem` and worked out that the BH is a sphere; but we add extra dimensions to his theory (I assume that they even exist of course) then the topology of the BH changes.
The sphere could be `hollow`, have `holes` in it, it could even be `inside out`.
All that would be possible as you cross the event horizon (basically our mathematical tools fail us at this point, though).

So as you pass the horizon you may strangely find yourself at every point inside the sphere.


I would at this point stress that I don’t have a clue what I’m talking about.
