This video is about how efficient various reactions are at converting mass to energy (as we know from the Einstein mass-energy equivalence of E=mc^2). Antimatter is very efficient but it is not naturally-occurring. Chemical reactions like fire or explosions are very inefficient. Nuclear fission and nuclear fusion are better, but not amazing on an absolute scale. Non-rotating black holes (Schwarzschild) and rotating (Kerr) are by far the most efficient, due to their accretion disks and very small radius of their innermost stable circular orbits.

    With a small enough black hole, you can convert 100% of the infalling mass to energy. Small ones are "hot" and have significant Hawking radiation. So you get one that's the right size to produce the power you want and then throw in mass periodically to keep it from getting smaller. If you stop feeding it, it shrinks, gets hotter and radiates faster and eventually blows up. But keeping it in balance is pretty easy if you are talking power needs along the lines of Norway or the world. Trickier if you want really gigantic power production from a smaller black hole.

    There's an even better solution to this with rotating black holes. You can directly harvest the rotational energy of the black hole through superradiance of lasers. Surround it in a reflective surface - or more likely arrange wave guides in specific patterns, and superradiant scattering will dump huge amounts of energy into the laser drawn from the rotational energy of the black hole

P.S. If one is to use the percentage’s perspective (i.e., in the Nuclear Reaction’s section, 150 cats were supposedly needed (which is 100/0.7 = 142.9 cats)), the Chemical Reaction’s section shall then be needing a hundred billion, also not ten billion, cats.

The quarks alone account for 1% of the mass of the hadron and the rest is energy coming from the kinetic energy of the quarks and the strong force interactions binding them together.

    The object I threw into the black hole is crashing into stuff as it orbits / spirals in... but the stuff around the black hole is also necessarily orbiting / spiraling in, too. So the crashing doesn't have as much oomph. It's not like my object is crashing into stationary stuff. I could throw it against the tide of the accretion disk-then there'd be more violent crashing-but that goes against the thing he was saying about rotating black holes.

    The math is way off in this video. Everybody knows that cats have 9 lives, so each cat can convert 9 times and thus all these numbers should be divided or multiplied by 9 depending upon which direction we're doing the conversions. Remember folks: reduce cat overpopulation, reuse cats up to 9 times and recycle their litter too (it smells bad, might as well burn it away at the same time).

    Why burn the litter if you could just throw it into the black hole? It's more efficient and doesn't smell as bad. Besides cats can't have 9 lives because it would mean there's like 378% efficiency in their case, which obviously violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics.

    Because of that, Cats can generate more energy than an Gamma-Ray-Burst, and would thereby make almost the entire Universe collapse. That is why alien live has ceased to exist. Once they found cats, they didn't know about their 9 lives, and threw a cat into a black hole to power their colony. After that, they were completely wiped out, but the solar-system was in the safe zone. You should thank cats for sparing such mere un-cute humans

    Object near the event horizon will have speed close to the speed of light, theoretically breaking it right on the event horizon. But the whole video seems oversimplistic and decieving to me. For example product of chemical reaction will have the same mass, just converted from binding energy to heat. Objects falling into black hole don't fall faster because they have more space but because black hole is infinitely denser then Earth.

    Assuming that we some day create a processes that can capture energy from matter, anti-matter annihilation and turn it into anti-matter con be done at more than 50% efficiency so long as we keep feeding in matter we sustain this cycle and use the energy not used to create more antimatter as profit to power things or create even more anti-matter. So long as this process is scalable you could in theory start from a single anti-quark (bit small, anti-hydrogen would be better) and keep feeding in mass and scaling your anti-matter production until you are producing sufficient power. This will obviously take a huge amount of mass, just a fun thought though.
