Apollo 1 and her crew were destroyed in an electrical fire on board the spacecraft during a training session while on the launch pad. Gus Grissom, Ed White - the first US citizen to walk in space, and Roger Chaffee lost their lives within minutes, well before anyone could open the cumbersome hatch or even get close enough to the craft due to the intense heat.
