Ueeh......

Since the black hole's gravity concentrates all the light of space into a circle mere centimeters in size—

it would blind you instantly.

Eirin's notes: At a distance of about 1.5 times the black hole's Schwarzschild radius, the light would be in a radius of 17 m. 1.01 times, 27 cm. 1.00001 times, 2.6 mm, getting ever smaller.
