Feivel, you have to drink an insane amount of water before it will kill you

true

but not an insane amount before it can cause an excruciating headache.

i once drank about 2 gallons over about 6 hours before Yom Kippur

the headache was so bad i couldnt break the fast (until the next morning). i was too nauseous from the headache.
