Abstract
It is generally admitted that gravitational interactions become large at an invariant distance of order from the black hole horizon. We show that due to the ``atmosphere'' of high angular particles near the horizon strong gravitational interactions already occur at an invariant distance of the order of . The implications of these results for the origin of black hole radiation, the meaning of black hole entropy and the information puzzle are discussed.
