Well, unless I've remembered it wrong, only two or three people have ever survived that fall. If I'm wrong, substitute a plane. Or a personal unprotected atmospheric re-entry.

Sometime there really are problems that can't be helped.

Falling toward a black hole would do. No way out, except in the form of Hawking radiation, much later in your death.

But don't give up even then! Schwartzshild coud be wrong. Think hard in any circumstances!!
