Happened to me and my mate back in the 80's. The motors stopped working and we were hauled through the window.
The joiner there had to take the secondry double glazing out first.

Mind it wasnt as high as that, the building was Scottish & Newcastle, roughly 110feet, we were about 90 feet up, high enough when you get stuck though :)
