0:00.0 | Yes, I've done this episode before about what it's like to fall into a black hole. |
0:12.0 | And yes, I want to do it again. |
0:14.5 | Why? |
0:15.0 | Because this is my show, all right? |
0:17.5 | And I can do whatever I want. |

1:25.6 | and made what he calls a black hole flight simulator that lets you fly around and into black holes and describes the views and what happens to the coordinate system. |
1:34.9 | And it was, I may have spent a good two or three days just playing around. |
1:40.6 | So I wanted to share some of that fun with you. |
