To Defenestrate someone is to throw them out of a window.
God, I love this word. Not only is it absolutely amazing that there actually is a word for this, but it's such a threatening word. It screams transitive, clearly something, without any knowledge of what it means, that you must do to someone. Someone bad. I've been told that it is often mistaken for meaning something along the lines of castrate. Either way, it comes across as something deeply unpleasant.
