Original Note:
It's not possible to open a plane door 'mid flight'. A plane door could theoretically open at below 10,000 ft and this is typically reached when descending or ascending, not mid flight. Even then it is unlikely. The Boeing incident was a manufacturing or maintenance issue. https://www.afar.com/magazine/is-it-possible-to-open-an-airplane-door-mid-flight https://www.wired.com/story/plane-door-ba-flight-science/
