Supermassive BHs are pussycats, it's those small solar mass BHs one has to be very careful of.

Precisely...you could cross over the event horizon of a supermassive black hole and not even notice it. Try doing that on a 3 or 4 solar mass hole and see what happens
Instant "spaghettification" and conversion into gamma rays
Not that anyone would notice
