This is a known issue with the physics system in multiplayer. It's not related to downtime Steam had the other day.

Basically whenever you get stuck in a physics object in game, the physics system attempts to propell you out of it to make sure you don't get stuck. Sometimes if it doesn't handle it very well you will just stay like that. Generally it makes you run a bit faster, it's more difficult to control and it will even sometimes shoot you into the air and kill you when you drop back down. It's sort of like a laggy effect but no one else around you is lagging.

Incredibly annoying and I'm sure it will be fixed soon.
