Yes...yes, I was once launched off an handle. It was in the autumn of 19--, and Colonel Beeflington and I had just built the most fantastical contraption of the century - the Begreasing Tube. It was a glorious machine; each of its harvesters had its own cooling funnel, and enslaved dwarves toiled day and night to maintain its rotational capacitance!

It was during the trial run that Beeflington accidentally spilled some very important fluid on the Jeffries Holster. In my panic I attempted to dive into the Holster and rescue it, but I miscalculated and landed on the primary graviton handle!!!!1

As for what happened next, I shan't bore you with the details, but suffice it to say that Captain Undergarment's wife was sent to bed for a week with acute cheek lacerations! In conclusion, I suggest you clamber back onto the handle at once.
