arithmetic - $1 +1$ is $0$ ?​

So:

$$\begin{align} 1+1 &= 1 + \sqrt{1} \\ &= 1 + \sqrt{1 \times 1} \\ &= 1 + \sqrt{-1 \times -1} \\ &= 1 + \sqrt{-1} \times \sqrt{-1} \\ &= 1 + i \times i \\ &= 1 + (-1) \\ &= 1 - 1\\ &= 0 \end{align}$$

I can't see anything wrong there, and I can't see anything wrong in $1+1=2$ too. Clearly, $1+1$ is $2$, but I really want to know where is the incorrect part in the above.

Answer

$$\sqrt{ab} = \sqrt{a} \times \sqrt{b}$$ is valid only for non-negative real numbers $a$ and $b$. Hence, the error is in the step $$\sqrt{(-1) \times (-1)} = \sqrt{-1} \times \sqrt{-1}$$
