      Well provided you have a washing up bottle and some string and can make yourself a space ship and then you happen to stumble across a black hole I think you would either pass through if it was big enough or if smaller you would get stretched and squidged as gravity acts on your body at different rates depending on how far through the hole they are.

      Hey, there is some speculation on this but nobody actually knows. The speculation is that you would be crushed and squeezed to the point that you would become individual atoms! And maybe beyond that.
