This is a fluid-mechanical framework inwhich gravitational attraction emerges from the obstruction of a higher-dimensional flowingmedium. Using Bernoulli’s principle together with a relativistic modification of flow speed,we derive an effective gravitational field. Replacing the Newtonian gradient with the propergeneral-relativistic acceleration yields an updated density response whose gradient divergesat the Schwarzschild radius and exhibits a critical feature at the photon sphere.In the linear regime, the two-body force law is derived directly from the fluid pressuregradient, recovering the inverse-square law at leading order with a calculable first correction. Proxy comparisons with published Event Horizon Telescope data show that the modelis consistent with current observations while making distinctive predictions for the innerdensity profile, ring width, and photon ring flux. The framework unifies local gravity withthe observed vacuum energy density through a single measured constant.
