Suskind actually has a whole lecture on Youtube devoted to addressing the paradox of falling into a black hole from the perspective of the person falling in versus an outside observer. The outside observer sees the falling observer catastrophically turned into high-entropy soup smeared across the horizon, while the one falling feels nothing particularly special as they cross the event horizon.

Just a note, that’s the case for a very high mass black hole. A “smaller” black hole would shred the astronaut before they even reached the event horizon.
