Seriously, How does a door just "fall off" during flight?

RE: Don't people check those things
they don't "just" fall off ... i suspect that the door in question has stops intended to react outward pressure only (as ou'd expect from cabin pressure). then there'd be a fitting so that the door doesn't fall off under its own weight. if this isn't maintained properly the door could come loose.
but there'll be a whole safety board analysis of what happened and why.

Not so with modern designs and smaller airplanes.
