I fully expect this was from their "big explosions and impossible situations" part of the episode. Under normal circumstances, that doesn't seem too plausible. In likely situations, you'd need to have it launched from a decent distance above two flights of stairs (even higher when considering the momentum loss of hitting the ground).
