I expect NASA has done simulations in case of explosive diarrhoea on the ISS. Perhaps we should email them.

# It's happened:
Frank Borman, on Apollo 8, managed to vomit twice and have the shits.

Which apparently "left the spacecraft full of small globules of vomit and faeces". That was about 12 hours into a 6.5 day flight. Thanks, Frank.

And on a shuttle / spacelab mission, the following exchange was heard:

"...Say, Bill, was that a monkey turd that just floated past?"

"I believe it was, Don"
