Without the math, this cannot be taken seriously. A black hole forms because a larger star loses its ability to create enough energy from the material within it to remain expanded, in balance against the gravity of that same material. Is there math that says introducing enough energy at once to overwhelm a black hole's gravity wouldn't work the same way? For example, what would happen if two small black holes of similar mass collided at near the speed of light? Would they have enough gravity to overcome their impact?
