Cliff Will: Black holes - The (w)hole story, part 2

Clifford Will is the world expert on how well Einstein's theory of general relativity stands up to experimental tests and astronomical observations. His book "Was Einstein Right?" explains in layman's language how scientists confront the theory with more and more stringent tests. Only because general relativity has passed all such tests so far can scientists be confident of using it to understand black holes. Annalie talked with him about frozen stars, singularies and wormholes.

hey what if our whole universe itself was in a black hole? I mean the big bang? sounds alot like a super nova, like a black hole keeps growing larger right? well guess what our universe is growing rapidly as well... wat if this is because of a black hole sucking up everything outside, what if out side of our universe and our black hole (if this is true) is more black holes? If this is correct it makes a lot of sense right?
