Cabin pressure would equalize pretty quickly with relatively little damage. Unless you happen to be standing right next to the door, you wouldn't get sucked out. Hollywood exaggerations of people getting sucked out or a bullet piercing the hull of the plane causing it to blow up are just a bunch of rubbish.

Just like how when people get shot in movies, they fly across the room (Matrix for example), or how grenades explode in a great big inferno, or how they make Steven Segal actually think he can act. It's all Hollywood bullocks.

torching a car dealership and then topping yourself on in an airplane toilet - that's quite fucked up really.
