Re: statics of black holes

In fact one could travel through black holes if he could isolate himself from the timespace pulls around him in a capsule
Indeed. It is the gravitational (or timespace if you want) difference between the part of your body closest to the black hole and the part of your body farthest away from the black hole. An earth equivent would be wrapping your feet with 50 tons of steel and strapping your arms to an I-beam 20 feet in the air. I always have to explain this to people who think black hole travel is possible with our current technology.
