You can't go to the speed of light... Light will always be traveling just as fast away from you whether your standing still, or running at 5 miles per hour.

Einstein also concluded that gravity was not a force but a warping of space and time. Light itself is susceptible to gravity.
Einstein might have concluded gravity was not a force, but really it is... Gravitational forces are technically forces. If the force is so great that light cannot escape it, then all it's really doing, is not allowing any light to be seen coming from it, stopping time.

You are correct in saying how black holes are formed... But they wouldn't be they'd be just, gone, if it had nothing to do with light. For it not to have anything to do with light, it would have to just dissappear. And the thing about the 1 dimension could be correct... it could be incorrect... We won't really ever know I don't think. I doubt it would be 1-dimensional... if anything it would be 4-D... Somehow...
this has gotten a bit off topic...
and I'm not helping it much!
