Tylenol, when taken in quantities other than those indicated on the bottle, will indeed cause poisioning and can lead to death depending on the extent of the overdose.  Consuming a bottle of tylenol will result in death within 24 h due to severe damage to the liver (which will cause it to shut down)- however, if prompt hospital treatment is sought an antidote called N-acetylcysteine, or Mucomyst, can be given which can save the individual.
