Pretty much the same thoughts I was having. I don't know enough about physics, but, i would think that the pressure would equalize between the two tires.

They used to to make a little unit that would limit the pressure from a regular gas station hose. It kept you from blowing your tire off the rim. I would love to get my hot little hands on one. Problem is, I don't remember what it was called.
