Hi everyone -
Unfortunately, we are going to have to close this thread. No one here is a doctor, medical examiner, or other expert to be able to determine how, or if, this happened.
Thanks for understanding.

I agree with caregiver, I have not heard of this, and I don't beleive it can happen.
The answer is that it did not happen. The story is absolute nonsense.
It is possible, for a body that is decomposing, to generate gases within the belly, but even then, the skin will evenbually split and there will be no ":explosion".
it could of been a rupurted appendix or gallbladder that would not come out of a person but it could explode in the walls of the stomach causing death from the posion
If the person died and no one was present after time and I don't know the length of time it takes. but in time peritonitis sets in and the body can explode.
I have never heard of an internal organ spontaneously exploding on the wall. Are you sure the friend is telling an accurate description of what happened? Perhaps there was projectile vomiting?
