In 1990 or 1991 I was inside a computer room when somebody accidentally pushed an elbow into the fire emergency button.. and the halon went off. Big room, many rows of tall racks. There were working desks there too, so papers flew everywhere. I just ran for the emergency exit door. The folks in the roombs above later said they could feel the floor coming up. This was a concrete building. All in all it was quite a shocking experience.
