Nobody dragged the tail of the plane through some aerials 300 metres off the end of the runway in Auckland or Dublin - I don't think these incidents are comparable......

I feel for these guys and never want to be in this situation - These things are always more complicated than you think - but the only way I can think you don't get off the runway is if you are overloaded / have too little thrust or if you under-rotate initially - time will tell.
