Usually your bladder won't "burst" in that way. The bladder has a built in hormonal mechanism that it will automatically release it's fluid if you do not release it when it sends the signals to your brain to do so. It sends more urgent signals based on how full it is. Perhaps if something goes wrong with that mechanism, you could experience that type of issue. But in most people, if they continued to ignore those signals, eventually the hold on the bladder sphincter would just release on its own. It's a self-preserving mechanism.

More likely if you drank a lot of water very quickly, you would simply die from water poisoning.

No it would not ever burst, you could possibly stretch it and put unnecessary strain which could lead to wearing depends earlier then the rest of old ladies but eventually your muscle would become tired from holding it in and you would just pee on yourself.

i don't think drinking really bursts a person's bladder. A car crash or some hard impact on it, can, though. I don't know if a person dies, but i don't think so.

I'm workin on it

yes. My grandmother died of a burst bladder.

it will only burst if u cant use the bathroom like if something goes wrong but if u jus drink alot it will not burst cuz ur brain will tell u to release the urine and u cant hold it in
