Both times I've gone over the handlebars, I was on the ground before I knew it and had absolutely no recollection of flying through the air. Neither was at speed and there was no way that I would have been able to draw on "falling techniques". When helmets were first made compulsory here, I HATED them. Now, I see their value.
