I wonder if the ejection seat failed as well ......

It is much easier on the back to walk away than to ride the EJ Seat unless
absolutely necessary. Pilots avoid taking the "Magic Ride" due potential for
compression injuries to their back. This observation based on my ~ 40 years
FD/CFR/ARFF experience.
