Try looking in the Pax and SLF forum. Even in this thread people have said it should be impossible, and if there wasn't video evidence
i'm sure they would be claiming it didn't happen.
There’s a few things to be cleared up here.

it’s impossible to open a door against a fully pressurised cabin. So can a cabin door be opened inflight? Yes, but only in very specific circumstances. In normal cruise flight, at cruise altitude, it’s impossible.
