hiya, here's a thought... do lightbulbs produce light? or do they perhaps suck in all the dark in the immediate area? hmm thought provoking ain't it?

Hi Chris, nice "Into." Welcome to the swap! Throw out the questions whenever you're ready.

The only thing strong enough to pull and bend light is a black hole. If a lightbulb emitted a black hole, you would be sucked in as well.

That would be incorrect. All objects with mass possess a gravitational field, and light is affected by any amount of gravity. You just don't see things like your head bending light waves around- the changes are too small for your eye to see. Massive objects like a planet or a star will "bend" light and affect its path, but only black holes will "suck in" and not allow light to escape.

Planets don't 'pull' light. Yes they bend light, but as you said not enough for you to see it.
So in essence a black hole is the only thing that will bend and pull in light.
