It's actually the same speed

No, Alex, Interstellar lied about that detail.
Andrew Kelly
is gravity wave or particle?
Austin Adams
Yes

Why not both?
Evan Reed
neither
gravity is, strictly speaking, not a force, just like inertia
they are properties of spacetime, gravity is just you sliding "down" (i.e. towards the low-energy portion of) the curve of spacetime
the only force is the electro-weak force.
now to ask the 1000 point question: why are places where there is a lot of mass also places where the energy of spacetime is lowest?

If light goes anywhere near a black hole and doesn't escape then it obviously isn't faster than gravity.
Christopher Baker
Gravity is the displacement of of space/time by objects with mass.
As an object occupies space it curves it through its presence creating the phenomenon we call gravity.
