      Black holes are stars that have been squished under tremendous pressure into 1 singularity- which is a fancy name for a very very very very very small space.

      So they weigh as much as the original star.

      Hi ShannonRooney,

      A black hold can actually ‘weigh’ anything from 1 gram to the mass of the entire visible universe!!

      Like Charlie and Kirsty said – Depends on the black hole.
