I remember that episode of Mythbusters. Adam Savage was looking into the vacuum chamber they built to test the implant and observed that they did swell a little once they reached near outer space conditions of low air pressure.
I think the quote was something like "Oh look, they did get bigger..in the vacuum of SPACE!"
This urban legend is sadly busted. But it's not like 1000 Ways to Die has legit stories on it. Most of them are made up tales twisted from semi-actual accounts of odd stuff happening.
