I'm guessing this is an overing exit slide. Looks like it just fell out! 🤔

757/767 wing slides have made a run for it quite a few times over the years.

I suspect it provoked a whole raft of complaints.

Interested to see that on ground slide deployment causes the inboard lift dump panel to lower

I guess it is better than having a slide inflate inside the cabin.
