Re: pic: Magnetic Grappling Hook
If you decide you don't like the magnets, you could always try (using the same launch mechanism) to use a purely mechanical system that latches itself upon contact, and could be made a bit more forgiving with regard to aim, like this design from this thread.
EDIT: The linked robot is from 2013, but the hook concept is the same.
