In the 1981 movie "Outland", starring Sean Connery, there is a scene where a construction worker in space gets a hole in his suit. As the air leaks out, and his body is exposed to a vacuum, we watch in horror through his faceplate as he swells, and explodes.
A somewhat similar scene is in the 1990 Arnold Schwarzenegger movie, "Total Recall." In that movie, Schwarzenegger leaves the pressurized habitat of a Mars colony and begins to blow up like a balloon in the much lower pressure of the Mars atmosphere. He is saved by the creation of an entirely new atmosphere by an ancient alien machine.
The question is, What Happens To The Human Body In A Vacuum?
