You’re under a presumption this fictional cable and camera still exist past the event horizon.

They stop existing physically. They’re gone. And if you’re stationary and not orbiting to be able to lower this in, you’re about to be gone too bro.

Orbiting and lowering this in, it would “spaghettify” perceptually.
