Could life survive inside a black hole?

Updated Theory: "A Hidden Universe Could Exist Inside Every Black Hole"

In a remarkable paper about the nature of space and the origin of time, Nikodem Poplawski, a physicist at Indiana University, suggests that a small change to the theory of gravity implies that our universe inherited its arrow of time from the black hole in which it was born.

I like it! It supports my contention that our laws of physics (as we know them) don’t apply throughout the (greater) universe but are localised to our ‘black hole’ as it is only us (humanity) who postulate that the laws, as we know them, apply throughout the universe. They might even vary in different regions within our ‘black hole’ universe.

A black hole - the place where the laws of physics and space-time break down. We knew that anyway. Maybe they are pure fantasy by the time the event horizon is reached on exiting our ‘black hole’ (if that were possible).

Yup. It resonates for me and ‘feels’ right.

One thing that makes this theory so possible is if you look at the building blocks of matter and the space between them you know that there is a crap load of space.

I guess since we haven't found that part of matter that makes matter well erm matter(Gravity) says that its all just pure energy(String theory) and we know energy can not be destroyed so I guess the Universe inside a black hole is just less space in between the vibrating particles that make up matter inside, and I guess that time inside would also be condensed and a lot faster than ours.

PS: I am high on flu meds, so might explain my thought patterns.

I know its a theory I thumb sucked one day some time ago.... never paid full attention to it until I joked just now.... But I see I am not so crazy when I Google the idea

This theory doesn't actually sound that bad.
It is an interesting take on the Big Bang theory, and a viable one.
This then might mean we are a part of a mind numbingly large cosmos, and our neighborhood is but one of the corners that formed via the Big Bang (others might have formed differently) and of course the depressing part is that we might have no way of knowing about the "out side world" or you need an infinite amount of energy to get out. This seat rather well with me (because the laws of physics do not go beyond the big bang), but then it raises another question. How did the "out-side" universe form and what shape/form is it (or might be)? You can spend your lifetime pondering these wonders/questions.

I believe a key issue is to consider the possibility that we [humanity] do not possess the mental apparatus to comprehend the true nature of reality (although we try). Our minds boggle simply at the scale of possible scenarios. Why do we have difficulty with this? Scale is relative, and our parochial minds find it difficult to conceptualize things massively bigger or smaller than our Earthly benchmarks. We need to grow-up!

No worries man.
I often wonder about the scale and complexity of the known universe and realise how little I know or can ever know.
Religion sorts out all the complexities of the universe, by assigning them to a higher being.
It is a get-out of jail card (obviously), but the feeling of being so small and kind of helpless can be overwhelming.
