Removing the hood by yourself is relatively easy, unless it's windy! Grab it inside the scoop next to the center support and put your hip into the front center, lift up and away you go. I have never had any issues on my own. What you do gain is the ease of working on the engine bay w/o worrying about hitting you hear on the hood!!! 
That's how I did it back in 1976 and I only weighed 110 pounds soaking wet
