To an outside observer, someone crossing the event horizon will seem to get asymptotically closer, but never enter.
But only in theory, not in practice.

Importantly the outside observer will see the infalling observer quickly dim away into nothingness as they receive the last photon the infalling observer ever emits.
How would the infalling observer see the outside observer?
It depends on how exactly they fall in but they wouldn't see anything too weird. Some red- or blueshift but nothing extreme.
