Sarcasm isn’t helping.
We don’t know for certain because that’s the quality of reporting we get in this world, but putting the available information together it seems he was able to find the handle and open the door. He experienced some panic of course, which is to be expected when there is fire.
Meanwhile, dozens or possibly hundreds of gas cars also caught fire on the same day, with causes like road hazards puncturing gas tanks, but most of those incidents don’t make the headlines, because they are not Teslas.

- natch 5y agoYeah I wasn’t complaining, just observing, so I agree with your last point. But I disagree about the expensive part. The up front out the door price seems high, but you save so much in other ways that it ends up having a lower total cost of ownership than a mid priced car like a Camry, for me at least. YMMV.
