      Honestly, I don’t know but I don’t think you would want to do that.

      In fact I’m pretty sure that if you drank enough of the stuff in a glowstick, you would be likely to die.

      Yeah, I’m pretty certain that no one should ever do that. Please don’t try this at home.

      There’s hydrogen peroxide in glow sticks, which is highly corrosive, so you would severely burn your insides.

      That would not be good!
