Your experience reminded me that almost all of my exits (they are not that many) starts with my hands. I have a hard time exiting in any other way. It starts with me waving with my arms. And then I use the arms in one way or another to exit. One time I used the rope-climbing-technique, some times I drag my self out (like you on the floor), some times I pull them backwards and just push myself out. It is good to get the hands out, they are useful!
