I recall that, when I lived in London in the late 70s, there was a group called Tube Theatre, who did stunts such as Barry H's (above).  For example, a man would get something like a tie stuck in a door and ask for people to help release him.  It would remain stuck but he would say that it's OK as he would be able to release it at the next station, knowing that the doors would open only on the opposite side.
