During our trip to cape york a very strange thing happened. I placed the pottie on the ground,(it hadnt been emtied for 3 days and was packed in the back of the ute ),i noticed it was a little wobbly on the ground and the sides seemed a little balooned, so i lifted the lid,and pulled the slide lever out and the boooom, a giant poo explosion. Liquified poo and urine covered my hair,face and body as well as a small amount in my mouth when i gasped. Can any-one explain why this happened. thanks peter.

Face too close to pottie!
Sorry, can't help but you certainly have my sympathy. Not much fun.
I'm sure that a couple of regulars know the answer you seek. Good luck. Cheers
Have done similar ..... but yours sounds a bit worse, I didn't get any in my mouth. I had used too much Sodium percarbonate (napisan) & it was hot weather.
Having to burp the Porta Pottie is a standard part of the routine before use with my unit. Mine is over 10 years old and the seal gets lubricated every time the cassette is emptied. My PP is stored under the bed so I value the fact it does not off-gas even in the hottest of weather. If there are obvious signs of pressurisation, a Wet One in the bowl before opening the flap/slide is a good idea. and keep the lid closed.

I confess that I had to have a bit of a laugh when I read this post. Then I recalled as a 10yr old on grandads farm, the time when I stood behind a cow when it coughed and farted at the same time. The result was much the same.
Taken to the yard and hosed down in the middle of Winter in the UK was not funny.

Yep, and milking 300 cows in a Herringbone Dairy sometimes resulted in a semi-liquid shower. Cheers
