When you fall into a black hole, you die, you become a noodle, stretched over millions of miles. You can't live like that. Imagine getting too close to one, and your head up facing it, suddenly your head starts getting longer, faster than your feet are, your dead at this point, and now you just keep stretching out, but always moving towards the black hole.

Sure, but I was looking for more of an "information theory" explanation. For the sake of thought, we can reduce our "observers" to single particles and what they "see" is simply what photons are incident on them.

The basics of tidal forces and whatnot are inconsequential when you're discussing what things look like beyond the event horizon. We've already suspended disbelief to get past that point.
