What happens here

With all the hinge pins loosened or partially removed, the next step is to safely detach the door from its frame. While it is possible for one person to remove a door by holding its handle and simultaneously pulling out the pins, this method carries a risk. If not handled carefully, the door could fall, potentially scratching or denting the floor or damaging the door itself. For enhanced safety and to prevent any damage, it is highly recommended to have two people remove the door. One person can steady and support the door from the other side, while the second person fully extracts the loosened pins, allowing the door to be gently lifted off its hinges. Once the door is successfully removed, it is ready for subsequent tasks such as painting.

Goal: Safely detach the door from its frame

use you can either one person can remove the door or two people can remove the door. One person now if I take and grab the door to remove it I can hold this side the handle and pull the pins out and then the door will release. But sometimes if you're not careful it could fall on either end and scratch or dent your floor. So it's good to do it with two people. One person could be on the other side holding the door and then you can pull these pins out now that they're loose. Then you're going to get the door off and then paint the door.
