Falling into a Black Hole: Movie Index
written by Andrew Hamilton
At this site you can see a simulation of what it's like to fall into a black hole. It happens pretty fast, but the best part is that you can step through your demise and learn a lot of astrophysics in the process. Watch out for tidal forces!
