What would happen if a volatile anesthetic were drunk in its liquid state?

Death: Death- volatile anesthetics are administed as a vapor for inhalation in fractions to several percents concentration. The liquid form imbibed as you mentioned is fatal. Anyone abusing the liquid form by "huffing" will also overdose quickly and die.
