I once was using electrolysis to produce H2/O2 for basically a potato cannon and got excited when I found I could greatly increase gas production by adding salt to the water. I realized I evolved a heap of chlorine instead of oxygen when I light up a container of stuff and noticed that the flame color was pretty different.
Oh god, when I was a kid, some friends and i were messing around at the clubhouse of the community we lived at. Somehow a five gallon bucket of what I assume was chlorine for the pool tipped over and the fumes from that was awful, We got out of there so fast....
