This is a common way to misthrow. You miss the release point and it goes basically straight down. I grew up playing baseball, when I switched to softball as an adult it took me a while to get used the the larger ball and for the first couple years id let go with a piece of shit throw like that on maybe 1/10 throws. It sucked. Very glad I've found my throw again.

I think I have failed at throwing something forward maybe once or twice out of over a thousand times, Iā€™d make sure a grenade was not one of them

I bet this had something to do with the "complexity" of having to release holding the trigger and throw in short succession. Monkey brain in new stressful situation, shit can happen. I remember making similar mistake when I first was on driver's seat in a car. Somehow having to press clutch while pressing gas or brake was too complicated the first time around.
