Nope, it's merely an urban legend. There is no such chemical that you can add to your pool that will reveal the presence of urine in the water.
I was told that there was a product or some type of pill that you can put in your pool, and what it does is when you have people / friends over and when they pee-pee the water surrounding them would turn a different color; like purple. Is there such a product??
If so , I want to buy it!!
In about 3 weeks I plan to throw a pool party and I want to toss that in the pool , so when they try to pee, they will have a sweet surpise that will go around them. hahaha

That story kept us in check as young uns in the 70s, and it is still going strong.
Yeah, but you can use OTO directly into the water and tell them that if it turns yellow, somebody pee'd. Add to the effect by putting some drops in a cup of plain bottled water (not tap water as it contains chloramines) first to show them that it will not turn yellow because there's no pee in it. THEN drop it in the pool, but make sure you have a chlorine residual too!
Then there's the one about...
Here's one: if the water is clear, why is it that we cannot see clearly underwater with our eyes opened?

I know you all knew the above, but just in case you want to prove to someone else (you know, the internet is never wrong!!)
I once knew a fellow who put some food coloring in a plastic squirt bottle, and was fond of easing up behind people in his pool and releasing a 'cloud' between their legs. The results were usually pretty comical, as everyone pointed and laughed. I seem to recall one guy getting pretty upset over it once, so I guess you have to know your victims... like any practical joke, there is always a risk of someone turning 'hole' on you.![]()
