Or a ramp with "one-way teeth" that stops it with gravity and stops it from sliding back down with teeth.

The ramp will need to be very long and very high in order to absorb the momentum of a fully loaded widebody jet. Not something that you'd want near a runway where planes can land in either direction.

The plane is fast and heavy.

Sounds like a much more substantial runaway truck ramp

And fragile and will go splat if you try and do anything approaching a runaway truck ramp to it.
