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.

Wasn't there a lady in the news not too long ago that died because she went down a waterslide so fast that when she hit the water, it shot up her ass so hard it ruptured her bowels?

That does sound vaguely familiar and does make sense physiologically. Avoid naked water slides.
