Yes. It depends on the blood vessel and where it is, but yes a rupture to a blood vessel can kill you. A blood vessel is more likely to "pop" or rupture if it has an aneurysm, which is a local weakness where the blood vessel has stretched from the pressure of the blood. This is more likely to result in death if it is in a large blood vessel or in a critical location, such as the aorta or a vessel in the brain.

What causes blood vessels to rupture?

Blood vessels can be ruptured by extensive pressure to certain points of the body. Whether it be internal or external, certain force applied to your body builds an accumulated amount of blood calls to form together thus creating the vessel which carries the blood cells to rupture to relieve pressure. Think volcano or filling a water balloon until it has reached its capacity. External pressure caused by blunt force, ex: a hard hit to the body causes a blood vessel to rupture as you would expect a hole to occur in wall from a hard hit. Blood vessels are delicate and depending on person to person any force pressure etc applied will indeed burst, tear or rupture.
