At this time and for years to come.. there is NO WAY to measure the mass.. Practically NOTHING is known of the black holes even though I have heard some theories.. they are all unfounded theories

I'm not sure I understand your question, but I do know how we can measure the mass of a black hole. If there is a normal star that we can see orbiting the black hole, all we need to do is measure the speed of the star in orbit, and how far away it is from the black hole. From that information we can mathmatically calculate the mass of the black hole.

The way I understand blackholes is that they are tears in the space-time because of an infinite amount of mass*energy and if the mouth of the black hole were to close then there would be no more event horizon and therefore there would be no more black hole, and all of the mass that was in the blackhole is not in the same plane of existance as the rest of us.

Your really can't measure the density of a black hole. Its just gravity that has collapsed on itself and it just gets denser and denser.

Go to your local hardware store and purchase a tape measure.

If black holes are what they say, then the mass would be immeasurable.

Gravity is proportional to mass

Your syntax is a black hole. What are you on about?
