Death By Black Hole

One of the more popular scientists of our time is Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson. He’s a regular writer for science magazines and he’s the author of several popular science books.

Since it’s usually interesting to hear an author talk about their books, you might think it would be interesting to hear him discuss one of the chapters in his 2007 publication Death By Black Hole. And you’d be right. Here he is discussing why it’d be so interesting to fall into a black hole, how you’d die, and why it’s kind of like cosmic yoga.

Then again, he also explains in the book about other ways the universe could kill us. He talks about that in the video too.
