Answer 1

The amount of water you drink in a day is fine.  But there is a way you can die from drinking too much water.  It happened to a lady in LA last year during a radio contest.  She drank and drank and drank...but wasn't aloud to urinate.  Her brain swelled, and she died.  It's called water intoxication (hyper hydration.)

Answer 2

It actually is.  I had a friend who is on our school's football team and he was drinking about 2 gallons of water a day.  He ended up really sick.
