No. Bladders don't explode. The tissue structure of this organ is extremely flexible, and simply stretches as needed to accommodate the body's waste byproducts until 'elimination' (urination). For an explosion to occur in nonexplosive material, an abrupt extreme increase in pressure is required in an enclosure not suitable for that rapid pressure increase. The bladder does not meet either of these conditions. There is no natural method of 'abruptly increasing pressure' in the bladder to a point of explosion. Any pressure on the bladder that reaches an 'unbearable' level will usually result in the person urinating to relieve the pressure (often referred to as 'wetting' your pants). A bladder can rupture though.

The only possible exceptions would be where there is an actual physical blockage, which might happen with a surgery or cancer. It isn't something that could happen normally.
