Thanks for the clarification. I knew the whole lungs problem and that was really what I had in mind but just kind of assumed there'd be similar dangers to other bodily functions but I see that's not the case.

I do believe the water would still be an issue for your eyes and maybe even mouth but good to know you wouldn't immediately have blood literally boiling in your veins.

I agree that the water exposed to vacuum would evaporate over time, but I'm not sure it would be directly harmful beyond the dehydration.
