The Martin-Baker ejection seat on the F-4 had a rocket pack to allow ground level, zero speed ejections. A maintenance troop at Korat Thailand managed to get the seat rockets lit on a plane inside the hangar shortly before I got there. It BBQ'ed the poor guy, and then ripped the seat mounts loose and put him and the seat through a metal roof. He didn't survive the incident!
