Was it like a car going 150 mph then suddenly drops to 0 then instantly kicks up to 250 mph? Could the same force be replicated on a human body but at much slower speeds? Wouldn't hitting that barrier jar the body a lot??

Yeah, we're not a regular, balanced geometric shape. Without a tether or something to help stabilize against, every marginal push or pull (like gravity, or the marginal friction of the ionosphere) will tend to send us tumbling.
