Completely unnecessary.
If you are ever in that situation, climb out of the window and hang on to the window cill with arms at full extent and let go.
You are only four feet off the ground in most situations.
Injuries likely to be nil.

I'd like to see you take the time to turn around to do that when there's
a fire up your arse. Indeed, I'd pay to watch.

And that's assuming you don't have to smash the window to get out.
