EveryAmp

A short demo shows how to use the Tesla Model 3's mechanical emergency door release on the front doors as a backup to the electronic release. It notes an on-screen warning that frequent use could damage the door seals.
HN cites it in threads about Teslas trapping occupants to show how the manual release is located and used.
