No such thing.  It'd have collapsed long since, since even neutrons
couldn't
sup****t the forces.  But let's say that there was.

: Compare with a very slightly more massive neutron star with escape
: velocity of 1.00000000000000000000001 C. 
: I don't see any difference other than light/radiation can escape from
: the first, but not the second. 

The difference is, even if you allow the first one, the second one
*cannot* sup****t the forces cru****ng it, for the same reason that
objects can't resist going into the future.  And would thus increase
in density without limit; there wouldn't be a stable object inside
the event horizon.

The point being, an event horizon isn't simply where forces get very
very large.  It's where spacetime is distorted so much that futurewards
points inwards to the center.
