Depending on the distance between you and the exploding grenade, the effects range from very little to devastatingly lethal. There is a pressure wave that can cause injury and death. This wave can pick up pebbles and small debris and project it into you. The lethality of this shock wave diminishes the further you are from the blast.
Most grenades have a metal shell that can fragment into hundreds of small piece of shrapnel. These jagged pieces of metal can shred human tissues and penetrate quite deeply into the body. Again, if one is close to an exploding fragmentation grenade, they will be hit with many of these fragments. If one is further away, they will be hit with fewer fragments, maybe even none.
Some people will throw themselves on a grenade, in order to protect other people around the grenade. Although this is usually lethal, one British soldier did this recently and survived by wearing body armor.
