Typical scientist mis-stating the facts.
Lucy died from injuries sustained in a landing.
Falling never hurt anyone.
But what happened to Charlie Brown?
I'm compelled to search for someone dying from the shock of falling...... but I'm too lazy.

If I were to accelerate horizontally at the same rate, I imagine I would not suffer severe effects, unless my subsequent deceleration were significantly more severe.The acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/sec2) on the way down, which is a function of the distance of the fall. The estimate is about 40 feet, which is a pretty good distance. She gains kinetic energy during the downward trip.
