Hey, I've done that with the keyboard stand too, Rapaire. It's a neat trick. It's an especially neat trick if you have a heavy weighted-keys electric piano which weighs rather more than you can catch - you try to intercept it but you can't, so you just end up with your hands pinned to the ground. And from there, of course, you're in quite a weak position for getting the damn thing *off* your hands. Even weaker if you happen to have fallen and landed on the keyboard, so that your body weight as well as the weight of the keyboard is on your hands...
