If you lose one leg, you >dont< get up. If you fall over however, the 
pilots own sense of balance (via the neurohelm), and using arms, can 
stand the mech back up. (How do >you< get up when you fall down?) Even if 
the mech has no hand actuators, there is no reason you cant push off a 
weapon barrel to stand up. (like using a stick or a cane)
