I Escape from Two Black Holes? Solve the Mystery!

Hello everyone,

Imagine the following situation:
  • You are inside the events horizon of a static black hole (called BH1)
    • Now, due to the bended space-time, your future points to be inside the event horizon until eternity (You will never be outside)
  • Now, a second static black hole (BH2), similar to BH1 "appears" (for whatever reason) in the nearby, outside the events horizon of BH1, and simetrycally positioned for me, comparing to BH1 center, So:
  • BH2 ----- Me ----- BH1
    • My question is: Is there a way that BH2 can bend space time in the opposite direction than BH1, in a manner that both effects are cancelled, or reduced in a manner that now I am outside the events horizon of any of the black holes? and now i could come back home safely
In other words, If I am symetrically positioned between 2 black holes (but in a manner that if one of them was not there, i would be inside the events horizon of the other one), can I escape from them?

Thanks in advance for your support witht this oneAerodyn

No. Once you are in an event horizon you are stuck there, no exceptions.

You cannot just "poof" a black hole into existence. You can "collapse" a black hole into existence if you have enough stress-energy in a sufficiently compact region. It appears that having accidentally stepped into the first black hole, you have also fallen into a collapsing dust cloud as that cloud has formed an event horizon and as that event horizon has swept past and engulfed you.

Possibly your eyebrows have been singed in the process. It can get crowded on an accretion disc.

In any case, you are now inside the newly merged single black hole.

I asked a question here, probably over 15 years ago on entanglement and I appreciated the thoughtful answers I received back then. The intervening years haven't made me any more knowledgeable in physics, so forgive my naïveté ! If a have a piece of paper in an area of high gravity, lets say near a black hole, and I draw a triangle on this paper and 'measure' the angles of the triangle, will they add to 180 degrees? How about if I'm looking at this paper outside of the (reasonable)...
From $$0 = \delta(g^{\alpha\mu}g_{\mu\nu}) = g^{\alpha\mu} \delta g_{\mu\nu} + g_{\mu\nu} \delta g^{\alpha\mu}$$ we have $$g^{\alpha\mu} \delta g_{\mu\nu} = -g_{\mu\nu} \delta g^{\alpha\mu} \,\, . $$ Multiply both sides by ##g_{\alpha\beta}## to get $$\delta g_{\beta\nu} = -g_{\alpha\beta} g_{\mu\nu} \delta g^{\alpha\mu} \qquad(*)$$ (This is Dirac's eq. (26.9) in "GTR".) On the other hand, the variation ##\delta g^{\alpha\mu} = \bar{g}^{\alpha\mu} - g^{\alpha\mu}## should be a tensor...
