I don't think that's right.

This is my understanding: It takes an infinite time to cross the event horizon from the perspective of a distant, stationary observer, but a finite time from the perspective of the object that is actually falling towards the black hole. Once past the event horizon, reaching the singularity takes a finite amount of time from the perspective of the falling object. From the point of view of a distant external observer, time from event horizon to singularity is a meaningless question because the events inside the event horizon are causaully disconnected from the events outside of the event horizon.

Guys uh, I don't think we have a lot of empirical evidence from people who've gone near black holes and returned.
