Humans don‘t explode in a vacuum, that‘s an urban myth. The atmosphere difference between the earths surface and space is magnitudes less than between the ocean floor and the surface.

Wouldn't the boiling point be dependent on the local pressure? If the blood is able to boil it feels like that implies the body would already be "opened"
