  One of the most dramatic consequences of low-scale (~1 TeV) quantum gravity
in models with large or warped extra dimension(s) is copious production of mini
black holes at future colliders and in ultra-high-energy cosmic ray collisions.
Hawking radiation of these black holes is expected to be constrained mainly to
our three-dimensional world and results in rich phenomenology. In this topical
review we discuss the current status of astrophysical observations of black
holes and selected aspects of mini black hole phenomenology, such as production
at colliders and in cosmic rays, black hole decay properties, Hawking radiation
as a sensitive probe of the dimensionality of extra space, as well as an
exciting possibility of finding new physics in the decays of black holes.
