Going off the idea of space time, large objects experience time, according to relativity. Here comes my but. But if objects (such as a human) are large enough to experience time, does that mean that from the subatomic level, time does not exist?

Before you butcher me, please hear out this idea. Let me be more realistic. Let's say there's a planet. That planet experiences time because of relativity and from my understanding, the larger the space (gravity) the more of an emphasis is put on time. However, if you work backwards, and work towards a smaller and smaller point of view, wouldn't time seem to be less prominent? The lower the space and massive something is, the lower the gravity is at the subatomic level so there should be nearly no gravity. So because black holes exist, it is theorized so because massive objects are placed in an infinite (or nearly infinite) space. Therefore, if mass can be infinitely condensed into a tiny spot, meaning space volume is assumed to be infinite, isn't mass accelerating increasingly at an exponential speed due to gravity, getting closer and closer and closer, never actually colliding (referring to particles colliding) therefore moving at higher and higher speeds at a closer and closer distance (decreasing space), allowing gravity to exponentially increase, as the two objects are growing nearer and nearer eventually reaching light speed (notice how I restrained myself from saying going over light speed). So doesn't this mean that time is nearly irrelevant at this stage, but completely relative in reference to the infinite distance between the two colliding particles? Wouldn't the infinite distance between the colliding particles only be reached if light speed, was achieved, causing time to be zero, therefore causing collision? Let me rephrase, would the two particles collide without touching each other, only disintegrating because light speed was nearly reached, thus converting the particles into waves (e=mc^2) which looks like a collision but is actually an illusion? As you can tell this is jut my imagination and my imagination usually doesn't sit well with scientists, physics in particular. Tear it apart if this sounds wrong, which probably does, but not to me it doesn't. Please be open minded in what I am trying to say and explain why this is not possible even though the theory of infinite parallel universes explains that I am right an infinite number of times (but also unfortunately wrong an infinite number of times, but I'm not going there) Edit: Going back to black hole idea. If there was a true collision, wouldn't a black hole be created because there is an infinite amount of space between the particles, therefore increasing the weight of an object, therefore creating the event horizon, making it look as if the particles have vanished? Is this an example of infinite dimensions?

Answer:
There are a number of inaccuracies in your statement. Particles have already collided by the time a star gets to be a neutron star, which is the last stage before a black hole. Somehow, a black hole overcomes even the resistance of the Pauli exclusion principle. (Don't ask me how.) At this point, all that exists of the particles that can affect anything outside the black hole is mass. I hate to ruin a good intuition, though, because part of what you say is right, in a way. As you get smaller and smaller, time does get less relevant. So does space. Which is basically what you get from the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. At large scales, it's fairly obvious that a photon goes from the light to your eye. However, this breaks down at small scales. You probably know that the electromagnetic force is mediated by photons. It has also probably puzzled you then, therefore, how can an attractive force happen? A repulsive force might seem more obvious: the electron just absorbs the momentum of the photon and goes away. However, at those scales, due to the Uncertainty Principle, the photon just might be going the other way and hitting it from the other side. A full explanation of why this results in a consistent attractive force involves some very advanced ideas and possible combinations of even and odd numbers of photons arriving at about the same time, including zero photons. (A few times I found a pretty good explanation using ASCII art, but I can't find it. I haven't read it in years, so I can't really come up with an explanation.) Similarly, there are lots of interactions where is is just as good mathematically and perhaps even better conceptually to say that something goes back in time.
