This esoteric research may offer direct proof of unified field theories that predict the existence of extra dimensions beyond the three we live in. It is apparently from minute protrusions of these extra dimensions on the Quantum level, that these tiny black holes might exist.
Theoretically, tiny black holes should evaporate in extremely short time spans.
(Rather than drop to the center of the Earth and eventually absorb our entire planet, or open portals to dimensions that can't be closed.) (I'm just being entertaining with these classic Sci-Fi thoughts...right?)
