With the proper protection, a healthy human can take over 20 G's for several minutes. The limit comes when bones start to break -- about 35 G's or so. At least one human, David Purley, has survived 178 G's for about 100 microseconds, with multiple fractures to his legs, pelvis and ribs.
As for a black hole, it's not the G force that gets you -- it's the tidal force. That is the difference in G force, between the head and the feet (or from right to left side). The bigger the BB, the less the tidal forces. But once you're inside the event horizon, the tidal forces get larger and larger. Eventually, they will stretch your body to the breaking point, and beyond. Very close to the center of a BB, the tidal forces will rip molecules apart. Also the BB will strip the electrons off atoms, when you get close enough to the center.

Just adding to the info the other guys hve give you, scientists are thinking that the best bet for navigating a black hole is by fly through it's edge. Far away from the strong tidal forces at it's centre.

The g force in a black hole could be 1 million g. The force is so great that its gravity well could extend 100 light years.

the tidal answer is correct acording to me !
if you could fall at infinit speed you would exceed the gravity acceleration ...
