Light is just a photon.

It has no mass from what I under stand.

It is just electromagnetic energy.

I think your tagline got Biden-ified. Or maybe it's Biden-ated.

This is a strange definition of dangerous. I’m more worried about getting struck by lightning.

[When gas and dust fall onto a dense, compact object, that material flattens into a disk before funneling all the way down. When gas and dust fall onto a dense, compact object, that material flattens into a disk before funneling all the way down.]

As I understand it accretion disks are made mostly of matter which has “radiated” out of a spinning black hole. The “inner” event horizon grows at the equator, and becomes an elipsoid. Where the inner horizon crosses the outer horizon particles form randomly because of heat radiation. The physics of heat radiation in relativistic environments changes to allow matter to radiate. Most of the resulting particles fall back into the singularity, but the particles traveling outward at the speed of light stay in our universe.

More dangerous is the naked arsehole who could be hiding in the White House soon.

Black holes are regions of infinite density, known as a singularity.

All models are wrong; some are useful. While infinities are common in the abstract world of math, no infinities actually exist in the real world. When a math model hits an infinity, it has gone off the rails and ceased being useful.

As a black hole grows in size, its density decreases. There are super massive black holes with a mass density less than water.

Duality. Light is zero mass as waveform.
Photons are particles that have relativistic mass.

I though the speed of light was a constant and was as fast as any thing could travel.

Mathematically you can travel faster than the speed of light. Einsteins equations permit it. It is just that you can't travel AT the speed of light , and there is the rub.

#15. If you were Long Dong Silver, having “objects pulled into the hole in a straight line” would definitely happen.

Said with a grin and sarcasm.
