Ancient 737s excluded, until we start to open aircraft doors from the outside this remains a distinct possibility. Modern aircraft will (should) automatically disarm the slides when opened from the outside. Besides, what do we gain from opening doors from the inside? This poor cabin crew member has just joined a huge great long list of slide blowers. I do hood nothing untoward happens to the CA involved. Lastly, smith, I do hope you are not involved in any safety function. Punitive reactions to occurrences like this cause real safety problems to be convered up.
