Yep, and they don't exit the plane by the top of it.
A usual procedure for a "safe bailout" out of a WWII fighter was to:
- jettison canopy
- get free of belt, safeties, inhalator, hearings, etc...
- push quick and hard on the stick with a leg to gex "expulsated" from the pit.
When canopy can't be jettisonned, it becomes harder...
