NOT that I’m saying I’m going to (I’m not) but what would happen to a person who drinks a lot of undiluted bleach and holds it down?

Impossible.
There is no way you would be able to keep it down.
First mouthful would trigger gag reflex and you would be throwing up all over the place.
It would burn your mouth and throat enough to scar and make you very ill if not kill you painfully.

Not something I would want to test out.

Bleach is a very strong oxidising agent, which would basically turn the fatty acids of the insides of your mouth and esophagus into soaps. It would then react with the concentrated hydrochloric acid in you stomach to produce large amounts of chlorine gas whilst destroying your digestive tract. It would be one of the more horrific ways to die because it destoys your internal organs, even though outwardly you look reasonably okay. Well until you start caughing up blood anyway.

Hello,
With bleach, it is an acid now the second you swallow the bleach your eppiglottis jumps right into the battle field, and prevents it from getting down your stomach, however it can only prevent so much, now your stomach breaks down food by churning, and so it if the lining of the stomach is attacked the gag reflex will take over. The acid will burn your stomach because it has a very low pH of aprroximately 1 not 100% sure about that, and will burn your oesophagus. So it is far too dangerous to even think of attempting!
