Interestingly, I know someone who has a pedal wheel chair, it also has hand cranks, and is custom made based on a 'reverse-tricycle' road bike. He 'rode' it up the stairs at the Sydney Opera House and security just had to let him play as he is technically 'disabled'. It cost as much as a small car, and out performs most cars around the back streets.

You may find this interesting but they do actually have ejector seats in some helicopters, they just shoot the blades off first which tend to do their own thing so its usually quite dangerous, thats why they prefer parachutes.
