"I was actually wondering about why he was still intact in any part of his body"
Well, depends on where in that house he was in relation to the bomb. If the bomb went off a couple walls from him [say, he was in the outhouse], he would be hit and killed by the flying chunks of collapsing walls. If these chunks were large [i.e. relatively few in number], there would have to be significant parts of him left more or less intact. If the bomb went off within few feet of him then it would be another matter.

I just realized that I was sort of fantasizing that that 500lb bomb fell right on his head.
