Most of the times is the metal bar that connects an emergency slide to the fuselage.

When the door opens in an emergency, provided the door is "armed" (the girt bar is locked on the fuselage), the door pulls the slide with it (since the slide sits on the door). Almost immediately after the door opens, a small lanyard is automatically pulled and discharges the bottle of the slide and the slide inflates to the outside of the aircraft and towards the ground.

The other end of the slide remains attached to the fuselage via the girt bar so that the passengers can jump on the slide and evacuate/slide-out of the aircraft.
