A chilling simulation showing the fate of a person in space without a space suit has left viewers deeply unsettled.
The unusual video, shared on YouTube by DG EYE science, demonstrates the brutal impact of being exposed to the vacuum of space without any protective gear.
Space suits are meticulously designed using advanced technology to shield us from the extreme conditions of space, and being stranded without one is a scenario many would dread.
Fortunately, the video reassures us that a person likely wouldn’t explode, which offers some relief. However, the alternative consequences are equally startling. See for yourself:
In the initial seconds without a space suit, the gases within the human body would rapidly ‘expand,’ leading to ruptures in the lung tissues.
Within just five seconds, the ‘water on the surface of the eyes, skin, and mouth’ would begin to evaporate, while the water in your blood would start to ‘boil.’
A closer look at the video reveals the body swelling and increasing in size due to the skin’s elasticity, which is ‘strong enough to withstand the pressure.’
Following these events, the heart would ‘slow down and eventually stop,’ as the person floating in space succumbs to asphyxiation.
