Black holes aren't "infinitely dense", they just have a significant gravitational effect on light. They don't even have to be particularly massive, and it's quite possible that some astronomical object could orbit a black hole like we orbit the sun. The way I understand it so far, is that...

I think the big problem with theories on how to survive direct contact with a black hole is that we don't know that much about them yet.
