I am probably looking to deep into this but a recent kurtzgesagt claimed that once you get to the event horizon time and space switch into eachother. Your no getting sucked into the center. But your falling into the future.

Sm coming back out years later doesn’t sound like a contradiction to that,

There's almost nothing more contradictory to that. While within a black hole, time becomes space-like, with your future being the inevitable center. The only possible way to escape would be to go back in time.

Well that's assuming einsteinian physics, black holes are one of the few cases our physics stops making much sense.

I guess the future being at the center is what makes it confusing to me.

In my head disappearing while being pulled towards their future and then someMaterial being burped out in the future sound like some parts arrived at a destination.

I would assume the material being burped out has been inside while l pulled towards the future till it no longer was.
