A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Morbid curiosity piqued, has a person ever been spaced? (Not just vacuumed)

The closest would be the Soyuz 11 disaster. A seal on the re-entry vehicle was damaged when the capsule detached prior to re-entry. Terrible way to go I imagine.

More pleasant, probably. Drowning takes a bit. Zero pressure results in a near instant blackout.
