Yes, and if you are curious because of the old wives tell about finding out the sex of a baby- it won't work, but it will splash up and burn you. The fumes are also toxic and will stick up your house.
The reaction of Drano (TM) and aluminum produces aluminum hydroxide and hydrogen gas. Hydrogen itself is not toxic to humans. If it displaces enough oxygen in the air, it will asphyxiate a human. But hydrogen rises quickly, and thereby dissipates quickly in open air. Hydrogen is not explosive, but it burns very well.
it was a yes or no question
Drano was created in 1923.
When Drano and aluminum are placed together in a bottle it creates an explosion. The explosion varies when immersed in water. Whereas, it only melts.
Drano is an alkaline cleaner.
Drano is not hydrochloric acid... Drano is the exact opposite. It's a base. This is why people end up doing stupid stuff and getting chemical burns on their face. If you think Drano is the same as HCI, then mix some Drano and HCI. If your right and its the same thing, nothing will happen. (Hint: Make sure you have somebody standing by to drive you the the hospital after you mix it).

Drano contain sodium hydroxide (NaOH).
Little if any. Drano is, in essence, lye.
Yes, the main ingredient in Drano is sodium hydroxide, a strong base.
Drano has an approximate pH level of 13-14 which is very basic.
If the amount of Drano consumed is small enough, a person can survive drinking it. Contrary to other website information, Drano will not produce a high. People who drink Drano may not die, but they face a lifetime of misery and surguries to repair the damage. Drano is extremely caustic, and damages to the mouth and esophagus can be extensive.
You make a corrosive and possibly toxic solution; dangerous to plants and animals. Only to be attempted in a laboratory and under professional supervision.
No, you cannot mix both bleach and Drano due to safety reasons. If you really want bleach then first use the Drano and then wait before using the bleach.
