Um. If time stops (looking from the outside) just before the event horizon, how do black holes get bigger? If we have a large asteroid just about to enter a black hole, and we look at it from the outside, just before it would enter the hole it stops as time gets too messed up. If time is stopped, the rock never falls in the black hole. Thus there shouldn't be any large black holes, as the small ones don't grow.

Unless of course Einstein was wrong.
