A black hole is like a cosmic vacuum cleaner. It has super strong gravity, so even light can’t escape once it gets too close. Imagine being sucked into a giant whirlpool, that’s what happens to anything near a black hole!
Examples
- If you fell into a black hole, your body would be stretched out by gravity, like being pulled apart piece by piece.
- Even light can’t escape from a black hole, which makes it appear completely dark.
