The pressurisation schedules to go slightly below airfield elevation after engine start, to avoid passenger ear discomfort on takeoff. The differential is 0.125 psi , if my memory serves me right. This means that over a big surface area such as a main door - plug type on the 737 - opening it would be surprisingly difficult.
