I hate hand dryers. 'Cause you just know that a whole bunch of folks before you walked out without washing their hands, anointing the doorknob with shit and piss. When there are paper towels, you can use one to open the door on your way out.
I love these things because they actually work! I first encountered one at Valleyfair, which is an amusement park here in the Twin Cities. I have no fear of water rides now, because I am sure the XLERATOR will dry anything–hair, towels, socks, etc… The first hand dryer I’ve ever seen where the last step is not “wipe hands on pants.”
Have you tried the hip-knee-heel method (HKH)?
With proper leverage, you can dig the bone of your hip into the open space of most institutional door handles. Swinging your body around, you can usually jiggle the door just slightly ajar after several attempts. (Be careful of the backdraft suction.) Once the door has presented an edge, you can slam your kneecap against it and, applying sufficient pressure, push the door open enough to wedge your heel between the door and the door jamb. (Be quick, however, as there can be a tendency for an unbalanced door to close prematurely, and pinch a blister into your shin or calf.) Having gained a foothold with your heel, you can use the weight of your body to spin away from the door, thus effectively kicking it open enough so that once you have spun 450 degrees, you can slide through the opening sideways.
these are almost as good the instructions for getting through the Hidden Temple
