Which of the following statements about black holes are true?  (select all that apply) If you watch someone else fall into a black hole, you will never see him or her cross the event horizon. However, he or she will fade from view as the light he or she emits (or reflects) becomes more and more redshifted.   If you fell into a black hole, you would experience time to be running normally as you plunged rapidly across the event horizon. If we watch a clock fall toward a black hole you will see it tick slower and slower as it falls nearer to the event horizon. If the Sun magically disappeared and was replaced by a black hole of the same mass, Earth would soon be sucked into the black hole.
