There are some myths about what happens when body is exposed directly to space. The official scientific theory is that alot of things will hurt the body after 90 seconds.
First, the gases expand in the
lunges and form airbubbles that could kill a man immediately. The water
in body will convert to vapor, the moisture in mouth and eyes will boil
and the moisture in muscles and soft tissues will evaporate, causing swelling.
Loss of vision, freezing nose, blue skin and sunburns follow. Interestingly, the heart and the brain will continue their work for another 90 seconds.
Theoretically, treating pressurized oxygen before these 90 seconds could lead to complete recovery with only minor injuries
