      The neat thing about black holes is the process would be both instantaneous and take literally eternity, depending on one’s perspective.

      Depends on the size of the black hole.

      Really big ones can let you live for a surprisingly long time. (Not going to quote any numbers because I’m not completely sure of them any more)

      Bigger black holes become more and more gentle.

      It is literally stretch because the difference in gravity at your feet would be much stronger than the gravity at your head, pulling you apart

      I think you literally stretch; the part of you that touches the horizon line first experiences infinite gravity, while the parts of you outside the horizon line don’t, so you’re getting stretched out as the parts inside the horizon line fall in much faster
