Hello back pain my old friend. Can you imagine the spinal G forces of getting yoinked by an airplane even at slow speeds?

The geometry means it's not so bad. The 'plane is going horizontally, but your initial acceleration is effectively vertical. Thinking of the triangle of forces, the 'plane is going in the sin(θ) direction (therefore with speed) whereas you are going in the cos(θ) direction ... therefore not travelling much.
So the geometry works in your favour, and the forces on you aren't that bad.
