So many things I could type here... I'll just keep it silly:
Some people think drinking peroxide will give their body "extra oxygen".
Certainly seems like a better idea than drinking dihydrogen monoxide... Monoxide means it only has one oxygen. That sounds dangerous and I hope people drinking it manage to get enough oxygen somehow.
If it only was dihydrogen monoxide... these days they're putting all kinds of chemicals in water... oxidane, hidrol, hydric acid, oxygen hydride, hydroxylic acid, hydrohydroxic acid (and a bunch of other acids, really), μ-oxidodihydrogen...
Ah yes, you breathe through your gut. Even if it did provide oxygen you'd burn through it in a few minutes at most.
With 30%, it’ll burn for a while…until you pass out from the pain
I swear dihidrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a poison. I remember our chemistry teacher telling us to be careful with it. 2HO, H2O, HO2, and H2O2 are all very different things. But essentially, if there was more oxygen (the part of the air that we breathe in and do not breathe out because we need it to survive) in our water, more specifically 1 more oxygen atom added to the water molecule, it would become poisonous to us.
