In the near vacuum of space being unprotected, just in a pair of jeans and a tee shirt or with a soft bodied space suit surely the body would expland slightly much in the way one does in a high flighing aircraft. If without a space suit I think that if the skin was broken anywhere on the body exposing body temperature blood it would boil off into space, with the heart still pumping it out of the hole. I guess the eyes or tongue would go first. So a slightly expanded body may spin backwards into infinity leaving a trail of dried blood in it's wake.

The pressure difference between 1 atmosphere and vacuum is the same as the difference between being on dry land or under 10 metres of water. Your body is robust enough to take it. Mind you, I imagine trying to hold your breath might be a bad idea.

Sentences to titillate and amuse. The worst adult story openings you can think of, by writers who will never admit it. Warning: some of these are extremely explicit, which means SEX. In other words, read at your own risk. Well, yes, I did say that if there was a warning I must have missed it. Sorry, I was distracted by "A Furry Tale" by Annie and Leah. I like beagles. Trouble is, last week was the first anniversary of our having to take ours to the vet for the very last time. I'm not normally that unobservant.
