It is possible. It depends on the differential pressure, and did the Italian have a glove on, or bare hands? How big was the hole?

Deep underwater….lots of pressure on the outside, and you need greater pressure on the inside so you are not crushed.

Space….a vacuum (no pressure) so the outward pressure is the 1 atmospheric pressure on the inside…in other words, not a big differential.
