Due to time dilation from general relativity, an object from our universe, for an outside observer, would never fall into a black hole. It would simply move slower and slower (and reflect light more and more dimly) towards the event horizon.

Would this not apply to all mass that had ever fallen into a black hole, and why should this not imply that from our perspective (from outside the event horizon), all the mass of the black hole would be in the shape of a hollow sphere along the event horizon?

And should this not in principle be observational as it would effect the rotation, or does a model of a hollow sphere fit with the rotation of a black hole?
