Sometimes called the Epic Geordi Maneuver
it's a move often used by the protagonist of a television show or movie to escape a door that slowly closes from the top down, quite often used by Geordi La Forge to escape when a warp core breach is imminent. It can also be applied in
real life situations such as the closing of
garage doors and any other overhead door, but it is not advisable to attempt a Geordi roll with any other type of door.
