The negative specific heat of a radiating black hole is indicative of a cataclysmic endpoint to the evaporation process. In this letter, we suggest a simple mechanism for circumventing such a dramatic outcome. The basis for our argument is a conjecture that was recently proposed by Arkani-Hamed and collaborators. To put it another way, we use their notion of ``Gravity as the Weakest Force'' as a means of inhibiting the process of black hole evaporation.
