Your body will explode yes, but not totally. and no you will not live to see another day, sorry.. =/

Exploding is a myth perpetuated by movies. According to NASA, you would simply lose consciousness in a few seconds and die from lack of oxygen within a few minutes. There would be additional injuries to your lungs (similar to getting the bends when ascending too quickly from deep water), some damage to your ear drums and probably some bad sunburn.
