The start of the universe. The big bang, or even what came before that. The big dinner and a movie.

24 hours before the beginning of time, there was oldGregg. And oldGregg said, "This is lit", and it was.

Given that time itself began at the Big Bang, would you get stuck there forever? I’m not familiar with the laws of “what if” scenario physics

I bet it would be like one of those shitty tiktoks/shorts where the instant the video starts the person is mid word. Because that dopamine cycle doesn't have time for you to properly cut a video.

Personally I think the position would be harder to nail down. You can't exactly fit a person into a singularity without some compression. So you'd have to start watching it after at least a few nanoseconds so you'd have room for your physical body.
