What If a Black Hole Deleted the Universe?

What If | November 27, 2025



They are massive, and extremely dense. They rip apart anything and everything that gets close to them. Their gravity is so strong that even light can’t escape. We can’t see black holes directly, but we know they have the destructive power to wipe everything out of existence.

    There just theories no one knows when we will be destroyed it can happen any second this is just to make us feel safe when he says calculations on when the earth will be destroyed or the sun expands no one will never know that day.

    Could we (the universe) all be in some unimaginable huge black hole? Which would account for the black space and stuff, I think it could be a solution to the great filter theory, I think, I put no further thought into it at all 🤣

    just one thing… everything that exists in the universe is made by the universe itself so its not possible de destroy or to delete universe… you cannot delete the empty
