Unless that water's below freezing point it's not dangerous. It's just cold water. Water + a few ice cubes isn't going to cause hypothermia unless like egypt 说 the person has a condition.
I can agree with 你 there, there can be some risk. My brother actually just did it with all his 老友记 (he had 前一个 open scrapes) he didn't even flinch so I don't think it's hugely risky.
and if 你 think it's dumb think about how many people didn't know what ALS was before this challenge came around. it's raised millions of dollars, why is that so stupid?
I did it and I nominated TDItwin and tdi100 (not sure if the 秒 one is right) to do it as well. All three of us did it. I donated 20 dollars after I did the challenge.
No, and unfortunately I'm not allowed to do it BUT I am going to read up on ALS, find out what % actually goes towards research, fine-print yada yada, then I'll donate :)
To those who are saying the challenge is stupid: hush now.
Yes many people are just treating it as some fad and have no interest in the charity.
But most 视频 I have seen, people have donated and spread awareness.
62 MILLION dollars have been raised for this charity because of this challenge. How can anyone freakin' complain with that amount raised?
Could there have been a less controversial challenge in place rather than ice bucket? Yes. But it is what it is, it will die down soon, and a shit ton of money has been raised and for the most part, people actually have this charity on their radar now. Job done.
Nah, but I think it's pretty nice to see that a lot of people who had ALS will die knowing that somebody cares about them and wants to prevent it. And there's been only one medicine for ALS since the charities have started (1920s I think) and it doesn't do much...
