It’s quite difficult to open from the inside because of the suction/ vacuum, maybe having a thin tool to hand to make a gap would mitigate suffocation

You only get a vacuum if the fridge is colder than the outside.

(Hot air gets in when you open it, then cools down and contracts once you close it. So pressure drops a little.)

Semantics really , I wasn’t trying to prove a point. I understand convection of body heat/breath/carbon monoxide poisoning.

My point is, if the fridge isn't running anymore, it won't be difficult to open from the inside.

Depends how weak one might be through lack of oxygen. I get your point
