the Theory of relativity does not really "break down" at levels below the Plack scale. That is how it is described but it actually starts preidicting infinities, and infinities in physics are signs pointing to erroneous calculations. relativity posits that at the center of a black hole lies a singularity, an INFINITELY massive and INFINITELY small thing, but quantum mechanics does not.
weird.
