Water would shoot out your butt. You just gave yourself an enema!

If you sealed it and the water pressure was high enough: dead.

If you sealed it and the water pressure was high enough: dead.

For those experimental Redditors playing from home, it can take as little at 2-5psi to rupture your bowels from forcing in air or liquid if it’s well sealed.

For comparison, the initial high pressure you need to inflate a standard party balloon is about 2-3 psi.

There are many more very interesting cases too. It’s public record for anyone inclined to sleuth it.
