Bump starting

Ive read about this on wikipedia and other sites, but I am confused as to how its done. The idea is if you have a dead battery someone can give you a push as you are in 1st with the clutch to the floor, and then you release the clutch and it starts the car??? Has anyone done this? Does it work? Just wondering because it might come in useful one day and I dont want to be left in the parking lot if noone has jumpers
