Why does time slow down near a black hole and stop completely inside it?

as per Einstein's theory of relativity, the closer the clock is to the source of gravitation, the slower the time passes. Clocks close to massive bodies slow down. The time difference between two events will be very large. Time difference between two clock ticks will take extremely large amount of period.
it is confirmed by tests of general relativity. Black holes are strongly densed matter. the gravitational attraction influences the clock ticks. Atomic clocks run a little faster on aeroplanes , away from surface of earth. Very close to back hole, where attraction and gravity is extremely high, clock ticks so slow that time can be thought of as stopped...

Time slows down near a black hole due to the warped space-time caused by its strong gravitational field, according to Einstein's theory of general relativity. As an object approaches the black hole, time appears to stop completely at the event horizon for observers outside the black hole. This effect has been supported by various experiments confirming time dilation in different gravitational fields.
