Ok, we have differing opinions on the affects on the human body in deep space. It started over a scene in the new Star Wars movie, in the movie a character that has human organs is sent unprotected into deep space. The debate is over what the affects of deep space is on the human body. One side supports the idea that in a gravity free environment the human body would be depleted of oxygen and death would come from asphyxiation while the other side states that the blood would boil and the human organs would explode. As so, the Star Wars movie in this scene is inaccurate. 

Does anyone know which side is correct?
