Drinking a large amount of sea water is dangerous for humans because it increases our salt level and effects our metabolism and causes it to go into crisis mode

Sea water is salty, too salty for consumption. Our kidneys cannot properly process that much salt. The salt will dry our bodies out resulting in dehydration.
