Hands up anyone who doesn't know you will jump the chocks with full power on all engines in a light ie. lo fuel no, load twin with engines mounted 'up' there, it's unlkely the brakes would do any good either, it just skates along on the locked up wheels.

Especially when not pointed away from tall buildings or obstacles.

IMHO anyway.
