(OIL INDUSTRY) a disaster consisting of a rupture of the pipe carrying oil away from a wellhead. Basically, when oil coming out of the ground through an oil well is released into the open air, or pours into the ocean.

In 1991, after Iraq's invasion of Kuwait was repulsed by the US-led coalition, the retreating Iraqi forces used incendiary explosives to blast open and ignite the streams of crude oil coming from Kuwaiti wells. This was the largest mass blowout in industry history.
The Deepwater Horizon blowout is incorrectly called a "spill" by many news outlets. It is not a spill, it is a blowout.

Oil wells, particularly those drilled underwater, are required to have a functioning blowout preventer. The one of the Deepwater Horizon was made by Halliburton and was defective.

taco blowout 

When you're eating a taco and it falls apart because either the soft taco tortilla is too thin, or you made your own taco and put too much in the taco.
This restaurant sucks! This is the 2nd time I got a taco blowout from here.

When somebody has an explosive bowel movement, and it splatters all over the toliet.
I wondered why there was such a horrible smell after Scott when to the restroom. Then I went in there and saw he had a major blowout that went all up under the toliet seat and beyond.
