We combusted upon death
As in as soon as the heart stops beating we explode.
Things to consider
- Funeral homes influence on economy and cemetary space
-Faking deaths
-Occurance and risk of murder and violence
Just think how every day things and history would be impacted

Hospital staff might be a bit more scarce. :p

The amount of cleaners may also increase.

Vsauce did a video on this and there crappy, unreliable records of this happening.

Humans are beings that are meant to exist on earth as we are. If we were different we would have existed on another planet or even another universe which would have accommodated us better.

If humans just suddenly started exploding after death, then the world would be in trouble. Even killing someone would be a risk, docters would be at risk. Everyone would be at risk

Off topic: Would a suiced bomber explode twice? Probably not.

We wouldn't have to worry about getting stabbed by anyone and all suicidal hoes would get locked in a mental asylum.

Lmao a bigger explosion would occur if they have a bomb on them. In this world suicide bombing can be achieved without even needing a bomb. But murder would likely be very low in close quarters

Its not causing the death its the result of death

I think I understand. For example you know how in funerals people say she died peacefully in her home or in her sleep or w/e. As humans we naturally combust on death so people will see it as beautiful/sad.

It would suck though because if other people died because one person did it would set a chain reaction so people explode one after another.

Then we wouldn't have people who donate organs when they die. We wouldn't be able to study a dead body so we'd be far behind in the medical field.

Getting rid of evidence in murder would be easier. Large crowds would be considered even more dangerous to be in.

Because everyone always automatically dies on the spot when they get stabbed? Another illogical post from you.

The list will just keep on expanding. Especially if this includes pets/animals/other forms of life.

From the way hospitals and emergency personell carry out their procedures (since nonody wants blood and organs exploding on them) to the way we as a society dress around each other (since nobody wants blood and organs exploding all over them due to unexpected deaths).

Even your favorite book may be written differently.

The whole strategy and approach of war would change.

I mean back when people would use swords and shields in battle. That would be near impossible if bodies exploded when the heart stops, all the bodies that would be on the battle field, exploding at random times killing people, who would then explode.

In order to suffer less casualties, during battle there would have to be some way to get rid of the dead bodies of those around you on the battlefield. Would change everything, we would probably have completely different weapons and ways of fighting.
