Actually, a bazillion amps *won't go* though 0 ohms because the door is

generated by electrical current. Or Power.

0 ohms is just that, a superconductor, and researchers have put millions
of amps through superconducting rings to get huge magnetic fields. The
problem is that if they heat up enough to have **any** resistance the
current can cause so much heat the now non-superconductor can explode
from the stored energy.
Power is current squared times resistance.

Yes. I was of course thinking of infinite resistance and should stop
writing two-sentence posts when it's very late and I'm tired. On the
other hand, it generated your response. Nice to meet you, Bill. :-)
