Yes, infalling victims will have a rather unpleasant time as they discover that black holes are secretly supernovas frozen in time.
Outside observers see the victim's own black body radiation become extremely redshifted, asymptotically matching the black hole's black body radiation.
If you mathematically "undo" this distortion for both, then what you are really observing from the outside is a star's worth of matter getting converted to pure energy and the infalling victims getting blasted in the face by that.
The victims can't make it back out "whole and intact" in the same sense that you're not going to keep your atomic integrity if you're up close and personal to a supernova.
Your quantum numbers however... those can be preserved nicely.

I don't think that's true. What kills you isn't radiation of the singularity, but cosmic microwave background (and other infalling radiation) turned to visible light, then x-rays, then gamma rays.
