No but if the pilot warns the passenger that opening the door in-flight

opens the door and falls out I'd say the passenger has some responsibility.

Did these radio announcers actually tell contestants that they risked death if
they drank too much water?

Do pilots encourage passengers to open doors in flight after telling them how
dangerous it would be?

They had certified nurses and doctors call in and state that
they risked death. The announcer's response: "It's okay. They had to
sign disclaimers."

Incidentally, 8 hours later, one of the contestants died of
water intoxication.
