Absolutely amazing... I'm sure I'll be corrected but if in my totally amateur interprtetaion I read this right ...seems the damn thing punched its way up through the cabin floor, propelled itself up the inside of the cabin, moivng the door handle to two thirds open on the way, then went back through the floor into the baggage hold and out through the outer skin into the open air! I've sat in those aircarft so oftem for so so long - and nothing ever happens to aleviate the boredom - but that would have added some realy scary in-flight entertainment, especially if I got the emergency exit row. How it did not hit anyone..... or hit something more structural or damage more avionics or control lines or get ingested into an engine or, or or - seems like lady luck was really smiling that day.
