I'm not a toilet expert but I once heard of some person that did this and they broke the ceramic and kind of cut their legs, so maybe don't.

I think this is an urban legend that never happened since I've never found any evidence of it happening, but definitely be careful and don't make a mess.

Edit: there is a relevant Wikipedia article somehow: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toilet-related_injuries_and_deaths

Edit 2: Maybe it happened once (NSFW): https://www.nairaland.com/2549481/graphic-pic-woman-got-serious
