    Chlorine is already in drinking water. But at a really really low concentration, 2-3ppm for drinking water and 3-6ppm for pool water.

    Deaths from mixing bleach and acid cleaning products have been recorded, so not a very high concentration is needed to be fatal.

    The same thing that happens to everyone that does not have chlorine in their drinking or pool water... they die.

    Pretty simple.
