haha this post made me laugh! 
sometimes when i can see the microbore is about to snagged  ( on a object usually shaped very much like a small hand) i give the hose the puppy dogs eyes look just incase its feeling generous...
heres my best snag to date! dont know how this happened all i know is it took me ages to figure how to release it
 
 
You'd have been better off cutting the end off and re- connecting the fittings
