That is not how pressure differentiation works.

Wasn't there a gif just last week that showed exactly the opposite? Involving a crab and a pipe?

Whoops, I was wrong. You actually literally explode.

Might not have been the exact same gif, but essentially yes.

Whoops, I was wrong. You actually literally explode.

Subsequent investigation by forensic pathologists determined D4, being exposed to the highest pressure gradient, violently exploded due to the rapid and massive expansion of internal gases. All of his thoracic and abdominal organs, and even his thoracic spine were ejected, as were all of his limbs. Simultaneously, his remains were expelled through the narrow trunk opening left by the jammed chamber door, less than 60 centimetres (24 in) in diameter. Fragments of his body were found scattered about the rig. One part was even found lying on the rig's derrick, 10 metres (30 ft) directly above the chambers. The deaths of all four divers were most likely instantaneous.

Gods below, I would hope so.

Thunderin' Jaysus, that's nightmare inducing

It's kinda' nice to get that occasional reminder that reality actually actively hates everything living and wants it to violently explode. There's a reason most* stuff is either dead rock or some sort of gas. Physics hates it and wants it to become a less ordered system.

*So far as I'm aware, anyway.

Frumple, how dare you?

The Sun is a miasma of incandescent PLASMA, not gas! D:<

By extension, so are other stars. The really big stuff that most of the universe is made of, afaik~

CORRECTION!

The universe's visible matter is 99.9% hydrogen.

Of course, it -is- in plasma form but isn't incandescent, it's ionized gas, controllable by magnetic fields.

[Frumple]

Plasma, right, right. They didn't tell me about that stuff until after high school, and it comes up so little in the day to day I'm still lagging a bit internalizing it as an actual state of matter.

Though... I didn't say anything about the sun, per se. I was... perhaps pointedly ignoring them >_>

Anywaay.

HOWEVER!

Something like 75% of the universe's total mass is in fact DARK MATTER, at least according to astrophysicists!

The universe is ~68.3% dark energy, ~26.8% dark matter and ~4.9% normal matter. 75% of that normal matter is hydrogen.

[10ebbor10]

Also 20% doesn't matter, but who cares about that.

[Putnam]

All matter matters.

To be fair, the gas song is much catchier.
