Answer #1

i dont think your heart can explode,but a blood vessel in the heart csnt explode or rupture if it is in a lot of pressure, but i dont know anything that can make your heart explode,maybe if you see a handsome or cute person,it can explode but not literally, at least i hope its not literally O.O, :*)

Answer #2

only if a surgeon plants C4 inside.

Answer #3

it cant really explode. an explosion happens when there is large amounts of expanding force due to a rapid chemical exchange or decomposition. you can have an artery burst by it being clogged and the heart trying to work and push the blood through. But i dont think the heart can burst. in order for it too burst you need 2 opposing forces. Imagine squeezing both ends of a tube of toothpaste so it it burst in the middle. you need that kind of force for your heart to burst. But considering that your heart is a muscle made out of muscle cells, its really acually kind of strong. the arteries attached to it are much weaker and if for some reason your heart was experiencing that kind of force your everything attached to your heart would fail first, making the pressures equal and although you would still be dead, your heart, intact.
