We present here a very simple, short and new proof which shows that no trapped surface is ever formed in spherical gravitational collapse of isolated bodies. Although this derivation is of purely mathematical nature and without any assumption, it is shown, in the Appendix, that, physically, trapped surfaces do not form in order that the 3 speed of the fluid as measured by an observer at a fixed circumference coordinate $R$ (a scalar), is less than the speed of light $c$. The consequence of this result is that, mathematically, even if there would be Schwarzschild Black Holes, they would have unique gravitational mass M=0. Recall that Schwazschild BHs may be considered as a special case of rotating Kerr BHs with rotation parameter a=0. If one...
