Fun fact of the day: The smell at the pool is not the smell of chlorine. It is the smell of the chemicals produced when chlorine reacts with urine. It is the smell of chloromines, which is the result of chlorine interacting with ammonia, which is in large quantities in urine.

@freemo chlorine dioxide does however smell pretty bad :blobcatsneeze:

@icedquinn pure chlorine is pretty bad too.. i actually like pool smell though.

@icedquinn pure chlorine also can kill ya easily enough :) Usually bad smells are an indication of danger
