The opposite of jump the shark. The precise moment when you know a movie, television program, band, actor, politician, or other public figure has taken a turn for the amazing, ramped up its game, become even more unspeakably awesome, etc.; the moment you it went from good to great.
The origin of this phrase comes from the movie District 9, where a heavily-armed robotic alien battlesuit uses a gravity gun to pick up and fire a pig at an enemy.

Get the launch a submarine mug.A game often played by sub-contractors in the aerospace industry who are working on intricate, time critical and interdependent parts of a significant development programme. Despite knowing they are unable to meet a delivery date they do not declare this knowledge to the customer in the hope that another sub-contractor is experiencing similar problems and will announce their own delay first, thus allowing them to push back their delivery whilst avoiding potential contractual penalties for a delay in schedule.
"I know we cannot possibly deliver our satellite for Q3 next year, but trust me, if we play launch chicken with the other sub-contractors one of them will crack before we do and delay the programme."
