Pop
From Speedsolving.com Wiki
A pop is when the puzzle you are solving pops open (one piece or multiple pieces pop out) during a solve. This may be caused from multiple reasons. Some include: The tensions being too loose, or the puzzle just being bad.
If a pop occurs during your solve you can choose to reassmble it if not serious, or make your time a DNF if serious ( i.e like a popped Eastsheen 5x5).
An Explosion is a severe pop that results a significant portion of the puzzle to fall apart. Sometimes the puzzle may even fall apart in its entirety.
