Why's that? I'm an able bodied (and quite strong, as I'm a rock climber) adult male in my mid 30s. Won't be an issue opening the door unless I'm dead or seriously injured, in which case feel free to climb over and do it yourself.

FWIW, "open it" is not necessarily possible (if the aircraft is pressurised) nor necessarily sensible (engines running). I'm sure I can make that judgement. And I reckon I could influence others as well - even if I'm not by the door, I reckon an assertive shout of EVACUATE EVACUATE EVACUATE would get things moving.

So why worry so much?
