Because the giant warning on the bottle in bright red print with a skull and cross bones isn't enough, hundreds of people are wheeled into emergency rooms every year after mixing a deadly combination of ammonia and bleach- a corrosive concoction that can cause the lungs to fill with liquid.
Should a person misguidedly join these two in a most unholy matrimony, they may feel fine for a short period of time until they notice white spots in their peripheral vision. (That would be the lack of oxygen to the brain.) Then they may feel woozy. Then if they're lucky, they'll wake up on a gurney in the emergency room with a breathing tube down their throat and a totally hot doctor-- who probably thinks they are an idiot.
As a rule of thumb, never mix any household cleaners together, ever- as many of them have either a bleach or ammonia base. In the quest for a supercleaner, you'll have to use that good ol' fashioned never-fail product- elbow grease!

I almost died mixing them together, when I went to the ER room the doctor said that there are quite a few deaths each year from people combining the mixture. Ammonia is hard enough on the lungs so tell you husband to go easy on the ammonia, in fact the windex already has the ammonia added.

When you mix bleach and Ammonia you are actually mixing Chlorine and Ammonia.
In case anybody doesn't know this Chlorine is also the active ingredient in Mustard Gas.
I kind of like Dark Knight's answer as well. Give your house that Texas City / Oklahoma City look. But let me know first so I can be on the other side of the State no make that other side of the country.

Because the ingredients in the two do not mix. They put off a cos tic gas and will eat the flexible pipes up in a washer. I know this because that is what happened to my washer years ago and I learned not to mix the two together. Try an experiment. Go outside and mix the two together and stand far away from them and watch what happens.

I did this long ago, I don,t think they even had a warning at that time, so I learned the hard way, I'm lucky to be here to tell about it, and you can be sure i'm very careful now.

There is a huge chemical reaction that will burn your lungs.
