No, there's not enough space "wrapped up" to keep them there. It's instead the
phenomenon of time dilation - the fact that time is "wrapped up" there as well
(after all, it's the *spacetime* that is warped) - that produces the effect.
From an outside observer's frame of reference, the victim not only *appears* to
be "hanging out there", he still physically *is*.
Maybe I'll draw a picture this weekend to illustrate what I mean.
