Now it's your turn. Imagine you are controlling three probes. Probe Alpha falls into a small stellar black hole. Probe Beta falls into a supermassive giant. Probe Gamma orbits a small one. Who gets spaghettified first? Who crosses the horizon safely? Use what you've learned about tidal scaling and proper time to make your predictions. Remember: density matters more than total mass at the horizon.
