Sounds like a job for some of the ham planets featured in /v/fatpeoplehate

But if you are below 8k and going fast wouldn't the wind pressure push on the door, so that you could not push it out? Or is it not strong enough?

Got me, but I wouldn't experiment if I were you, you might get hit by a wine bottle.

Depends on the plane, speed, and altitude. There is an episode of Air Crash Investigation about a plane that had a lot of smoke in the cabin where they opened the doors in flight to let smoke out.

Probably lots of factors that could change the situation. My guess is they slowed down and dropped altitude to do that ... that's a great show, BTW, I always enjoy that one when they have new ones.

But what if your hijacker CAN lift elephants? What then? Why take that risk?

However, the story changes if the plane is below 8,000 feet, Clarke said. "Below 8,000 feet, the pressure is controlled to match the pressure outside, hence the reason your ears only hurt the last 8,000 feet of the descent," he said. Below that altitude, there is either a slight or no pressure difference between the inside and outside of the plane, "so it is much easier to pull the door open, as you would on the ground," Clarke said.

Don't leave it to chance. Let loose with the wine bottles!

Wine bottles are the way to go, and in the news this week!

I like the imagery of passengers smashing wine bottles over the guy's head, although airline wine bottles may be smaller than I'm imagining.

It depends more on the exothermic potential of your sneakers.
