Mixing toilet bowl cleaner and bleach can create a toxic gas. I used to work with a woman who almost died because of it. She had lung problems for the entire rest of the time I knew her.

Featured snippet from the web
Acid-based toilet bowl cleaners and bleach are also a very dangerous blend. Some people may add bleach to the bowl but the combination of bleach with the acid releases chlorine gas. Even at low levels, it irritates eyes, nose and throat and causes coughing and breathing problems. Very high levels can cause death.

If you get the proportions just right, some *explosive* nitrogen trichloride can form.
