Stabbilisation

Stabbilisation: noun. The act of making someone or something less prone to overturn by stabbing it (often from different sides). The word stabbilisation originates from the defence of Brutus and other Roman senators after their collective murder of Julius Caesar, saying that they were merely trying to prevent Caesar from bleeding too much in one way or the other so as to achieve his standing upright. The defence of the first senator who stabbed Caesar is unknown.
