There was also an incident at Marham, some years back, involving a 100 Sqn Canberra. During an overshoot, (asymmetric, IIRC), the aircraft crashed into the runway threshold, cartwheeling along the ground and during this process, flinging out the crewmembers. I believe at least one of the crew may have attempted to eject during the crash, but at any rate, all 3 crew survived, with 1 of the navs simply walking away from the wreckage.
