Reply to comment by [deleted] in I have a question about why a black hole’s gravity is more than it was when it was a star (detailed question in description) by [deleted]

Same “amount” of gravity in less space, close to the BH. if you were the same distance above the star and the BH, you would feel the same force. But with a BH, you can get 100 km (for example) from the center and still be outside the BH. With a star, if you were 100 km from the center you would be deep inside.
