    Doesn’t a black hole stretch time in a really weird manner? That would mean that no sensible answer can be given to the question. It could easily be that it takes either one billionth of a second or a trillion years, depending on where you are standing when observing the occurrence.

    At the event-horizon, you’re moving at the speed of light.

    So, you can’t have any awareness of duration, anymore.

    You slam into the black-hole, from your perspective, instantaneously, then.

    No machine could be “fast enough” to notice any duration pass by, between the event-horizon & the smashing-to-strings/quarks/whatever.
