The term refering to the moment an elderly lady, clutching her handbag, gets up from the safety of her bus seat the exact moment the bus driver hits the brakes launching the off-balanced woman down the bus aisle in a straight line akin to an F-18 taking off the deck of an aircraft carrier. There is a noticable whoosh if you're listening. Laughing is discouraged but understandable.
Dude! While taking the bus down 5th this morning a bike courier cut us off causing the driver to granny launch this woman the whole lenght of the bus.
Was she okay?
I don't know. The door openend just as she flew by the driver then she was gone.
