I have a better idea.  Lower the temperature of the crew until they
are near absolute zero.  Then not only won't they be squashed, but
they will become superconducting, greatly enhancing their accelleration!
Thawing them out live again is a trivial technical problem compared to
the one of surviving electrocution, as freezing does less damage
than burning.
