ice bucket challenge is out of control )))

[pronk]

“Price Is Right” host Drew Carey wants to catch a group of Ohio teenagers responsible for a “horrendous” ALS Ice Bucket Challenge prank on an autistic boy, and is willing to chip in a $10,000 toward a reward fund.

“WTF? Just saw this. Horrendous. These kids should be arrested and expelled,” Carey tweeted after reading a Cleveland.com report about a group of Bay Village High School students who tricked a 14-year-old special needs student into dumping a bucket full of urine, spit and feces on his head.

^^^ That is fukked up.

I seen a ice bucket challenge earlier today with some guy getting the water/ice dumped on him from the front bucket of a backhoe and the shovel dropped down amd hit him in the head and almost broke his neck.

I would also like to add that I liked Drew Carey better when he was plump.

The only thing to say about this ice bucket challenge is they keep 73% of the money to pay ppl running it while putting out a measly 27% to actual research.
It's a fukkin joke.
This is why donating your money is insane.
It doesn't go where it should go.
Media is pathetic latching on to shit like always.

Pete Frates did a great thing here, and it's too bad these charities do what they do and get away with it.
It's still horrible how much money is wasted that ppl donate.

Unless you check the box on your donation - then 100% goes to research.

That 73% isn't just "paying people running it".

Programs include things like education programs, wheelchairs for those afflicted etc - that's part of the 73%

86.4% of statistics are just made up on the spot. FACT.

Another one bites the dust...

LOUISVILLE KY. (Reuters) - A Kentucky firefighter who was severely injured a month ago while helping college students take part in an "ice-bucket" fundraiser died on Saturday from his injuries, authorities said.

Captain Tony Grider, 41, of Campbellsville was hurt along with three other firefighters when an aerial ladder got too close to a power line as their department doused a university band with water.

Kyle Smith, the chief of Campbellsville Fire and Rescue, said Grider died at noon at University of Louisville hospital.

"His family would like to sincerely thank all of those who have been there for them following this tragic accident," Smith said in a statement.

Grider and his three colleagues were injured on Aug. 21 when they were attempting to help students at Campbellsville University participate in the ice bucket challenge to raise funds to fight amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease.

Grider and another firefighter, 22-year-old Simon Quinn, sustained electrocution injuries in the initial incident. Two other firefighters suffered lesser injuries coming to their aid, officials said.

Quinn was released from hospital earlier this week.

"These injuries were very severe and both firefighters have fought extremely hard to overcome them," Smith said.

Arrangements for Grider's funeral service were still pending.

...how many more morons will be victimized by this nonsense?
