Black holes can destroy everything – but can they be destroyed? What happens if we push physics to the absolute limits, maybe even break it and the universe in the process? Let’s create a tiny black hole, about the mass of our moon, in the Kurzgesagt Labs and try to rip it apart.

I only clicked on the video to leave the comment, I’m not even gonna watch the video, nuking a black hole is the same as throwing a piece of gravel at a freight train…. Literally useless

Singularity is in the future.
Well then obviously the end of the universe will be the big crunch.

I always thought the event horizon was a description of the radius of the black hole rather than a 'thing' that can either be there or not. I watch a lot of science / astronomy stuff and this is the first time I've ever encountered the event horizon being discussed as if it were a thing that could be there or not. To me it's like saying you could somehow remove the distance between new york and los angeles it just doesn't make sense.

It’s the gravity of a black hole that keeps all that energy within it. The very fabric of space warped into a singularity. Can you imagine the elastic contraction of space if a black holes gravity was negated?
@moe3zy14
October 20, 2024 at 9:32 pm
Fun fact: black holes aren’t really known to get destroyed
@korn6668

This is honestly ridiculous
@Scholarpasta

You CAN'T destroy a black hole by nuking it! You have to ask nicely 😊

Singularities don't actually exist nor does the idea of infinity in the sense we're talking about. They are both concepts. Just like "Nothing" is a concept. There doesn't actually exist "nothing". Everywhere there is something.

If you give this channel access to anything, the world is doomed if they get a hold on an atom collider.

But what prevents event horizon from reforming after breaking it?
@FahadMustapha123
October 20, 2024 at 9:32 pm
10^117 years
Example There is a massive black hole with a mass of 1,000,000,000,000,000 solar masses it is decaying

Time destroys black holes. Given enough time, they will evaporate and finally blow up.
@OmarManasra
October 20, 2024 at 9:32 pm
Negative gravity can decimate it
@jamesg6256
October 20, 2024 at 9:32 pm
If we were headed toward the event horizon in our future then wouldn't we see it evaporate at the same time?
@LordLucariosLair
October 20, 2024 at 9:32 pm
Another way to think about it is: Singularities are the gods and the black holes are their prisons.

Wasn't Hawking saying that antimatter reduces the black hole mass?

Nuking it would just make it bigger
@Ozie1981
October 20, 2024 at 9:32 pm
Actually…if you get a quantity of mass right on the brink of the schwartzchild radius… but spin it really fast, and control how fast it spins (ie electromagnetism or whatever) you could theoretically get it to start collapsing into a singularity but then pull it back out by negating some of the gravity with centrifugal force.

Since were on the topic of conspiracy. What if we are actually in a black hole, like earth and the milky way. And what if aliens decide to put their most powerful weapon into that black hole. Would that be equivalent to our big bang? Would the whole universe go out in one big bang or fireball? Something to ponder.
