I've also never been pulled out 

I have however seen a paddler noseplant coming down the steep face of wave (he was too high on it as it steepened) and get literally catapulted out and foward of his boat. spectacular - kept us all amused for a while. he was fine.

I recall he was fairly loose in his boat.
