I think I've heard somewhere that the experiment was successful, we're not going to die from the black hole.

SprintT 2008-09-13 13:12:35

"Ohh please,we cant die,black holes are dumb movie stuff,never seen in real life space so STFU,were not going to die."

Every word of that sentence screams teenager and an idiot.
1) We can die and quiet easily from anything
2) Blackholes did not origonate from movies
3) What is real life space?....space is space unless you get into dark matter
4) We have seen it in space, a black hole is the absance of light (or so it appears) and we have seen that

I admit I am worried to about what may or may not happen. I am a very learned person and I value knowlege but something are just better not tested. I do not think the gains out weigh the danger. Plus what if the big bang is true? Faith holds to many people together in their fragile lives let them have it. Sigh

Khris 2008-09-13 13:26:22

sounds to me that you want everyone to die you asshole

JACK-IN-THE-DARK 2008-09-13 13:31:32

The LHC? what is that? Its just the the freaking 9000 time that i read something like this shit!
Get over this, if this dodn't kill us, the global warming will, so chill out!

Rikkis 2008-09-13 13:36:08

This is just stypid.
LHC can't cerate such black hole and there is proof everywhere.

Exsample;
Did you know world cerates 300 black hole on earth every day. (You just can't see them)

Quarl 2008-09-13 13:43:18

Man fuck this collider shit. It's now the year 2008 and we're not driving flying cars yet. I'm fucking pissed that more money is going into making a black hole of nothingness then cool flying cars. Seriously? What the fuck scientists. Get your priorities sorted out.

nipplestone 2008-09-13 13:47:57

Wow the top video really can effect you.
I thought we were going to be alright and nothing really would happen but...now im not sure
I HATE YOU DZ2001

PolishMatt 2008-09-13 13:47:57

You're an idiot, it has been proven by hundreds of scientists that it doesn't have the power to destroy the world,you would need the mass of 6 of suns to make a black hole big enough to start sucking in matter, not a small tiny atom. If a black hole does happen, it's going to be what scientists call a "Micro Blackhole", because it's so tiny that you wouldn't even be able to see it with the naked eye or even a semi strong microscope, it would also evaporate in a matter of micro-nano seconds because it's incredible instability.

Imn 2008-09-13 14:06:58

I'm sorry, but I don't think mankind already has the ability to create a blackhole that will devour the Earth. Maybe micro blackholes (which have been observed in space, and appear and disappear within a matter of a split-nanosecond or even less), but not those which you may hear about eating away at distant stars.

These micro blackholes appear and disappear so fast that they've installed special cameras that capture at a rate of around one million fps. They can't do anything. And it's not like they don't have any information or data on these blackholes; they have observed them out in space; they don't do anything at all.

Stop worrying, please.

Josh-B 2008-09-13 14:08:11

Maybe it'll create a black hole that will suck in idiots who respond in anger to this post.

Shadowii2 2008-09-13 14:44:33

Because the list of risks contain the word "black hole", it doesn't mean it will happen with the percentage of 100%. The percentage for it happening is only one in million or so.

GigaGaia 2008-09-13 15:25:07

Some things to make u feel safe.
1.) would russia china and north korea alow this knowing that there entire kingdoms could be destroyed allow this, they havent tried yet so they must think its safe.
2.)The LHC is being tested very severyl they have many oervride switches incase the first sighn of a huge amout of pressure inside the tube. the rate the pressure ratings and if theres too much pressure they assume its a black hole and deactivate it.

GigaGaia 2008-09-13 15:41:37

Also. If there trying to recerate the big Bang... uh wasent the big bang kinda BIG!!!
And diditn the big bang create a black hole in witch all of our universes and suns orbit right now!!!!!!

Ascendency 2008-09-13 16:07:45

The Experiment Begins In 8 Days. The Chance Of It Creating A Black Hole Large Enough To Destroy Earth Is Low At Most, The Best We're gonna get is A Tiny One Which Dissapears After a Few Seconds because They Dont Have a Star For it to react with. Anyway, the particles being created are less dangerous than ones which hit our planet every day.

billycheese 2008-09-13 16:12:59

they did the experiment and it worked so we will not die

Doomsday-One 2008-09-13 16:16:00

You worry about this, as do others, but I assume most of you all go to school/work, do household chores such as cooking, and cross busy roads on a day-to-day basis.

It's sort of funny how people get worried over things that have never happened before, such as the LHC being switched on.
People are nowhere near as worried in lightning storms; but I guess that fear of the unknown can do this to a person.

I suppose The Joker in the new Batman movie summed it up pretty well:
"You know what I noticed? Nobody panics when things go 'according to plan'...even if the plan is horrifying."

Ah, good ol' Joker...
Wait, what was I talking about again?

Dawnslayer 2008-09-13 16:51:43

But if we do destroy ourselves...is the universe really losing anything of value?

Okay, seriously. None of the videos you posted here provide any evidence for or against your argument. You even posted some videos twice.

For that matter, the Big Bang itself is nothing more than a theory. It's just a theory that so far has held up to our observations and which we have therefore assumed is fact. And if the Big Bang theory is wrong, then you can't create one, which according to these vids they're not trying to do anyway.

As for the black hole, electromagetism is a force billions of times more powerful than gravity in equivalent proportions. I imagine if we do create a mini black hole, there won't be enough mass from two particles (as opposed to an entire star) for there to be any drastic effects; furthermore, the LHC's EM field alone could probably contain or neutralize whatever effects there are, posibly even destroying a mini black hole at high power levels.

I'm not saying you're wrong or that I'm right, or that you're right and I'm wrong. I'm just trying to bring a little intelligent debate to this discussion so we can take a proper look at what we're dealing with and weigh the risks with as much of an educated mind as we can possibly attain.

krazy7779 2008-09-13 17:03:48

The only thing that we know for sure. Is that we know nothing.

thekk2008 2008-09-13 17:18:28

I'm not sure but i would say that I'm scared a bit but i don't really care when i'm doin something good best

i'm scared when

doin nothin 60%
hanging out with friends maybe talkin about it 90%
on the toliet 100%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

ChuckDaKnife 2008-09-13 17:23:23

Well, we COULD die. It's very possible, but there's also a great chance of the experiment succeding without destroying everyone and everything.
