BLOODY lucky escape, there.

I'm not sure it's all that lucky.
An oven door-seal should be able to withstand a few hours of heat, surely? I assume that there'd've been a fair amount of smoke when he opened the door, but there's no obvious reason why a well-maintained oven wouldn't be perfectly safe.

Years ago in bedsit land
I passed out with a dole mixed grill (burger, sausage, potato waffle) under the grill on the baby belling.
Woke up in a haze of blue smoke with a cough that lasted a week. Oops!

Yes, it is very dangerous, especially in a small kitchen with the doors and windows shut.
You'd have to be passed out drunk in that kitchen. Happens more than you'd think.
