    Theres always a small number of mishaps or accidents in any human endeavour.So thats not the issue-the issue is is it wildly reckless and I think not.

    I have edited the post with a video of a child who fell over because of this stupid task.

    All the parents could do was laugh.

    I'm guessing your talking about the kid who jumped into a disused quarry after doing the ice bucket challenge. I'm up for banning jumping into disused quarries, but I can't see how the ice bucket challenge came into it

    Stop being miserable

    This is just as ridiculous as people who insult those of us who have no interest in the challenge.

    When did everyone become so immature and stupid?

    Oh sorry, when I said twice I meant zero times. Numbers sometimes confuse me, I've had too much ice water thrown over me and it's numbed the braincells.

    I have no interest in doing it myself but if others do, go for it. I don't understand how you just fall over from having a bucket of water thrown over your head, were they using a slingshot or something?

    I know it's cruel and bad of me but I just had to laugh at that video. That must've hurt her so bad.

    No. The young girl was so traumatised that she ran off and slip over because of the fright.

    It won't be long before there's a fatality.

    You wish to make a meme which is raising awareness of a condition which blights lives and raising money for the charity concerned illegal? And this is not authoritarian because?

    Op your life sounds pretty shit if this is enough to get upset about as much as it clearly has. Maybe you should try and get your leg over, find some hobbies, or party some more. Jeez :o

    You are missing a big factor which is that most people probably aren't donating and just doing it for the laugh.

    I think there should at least be an age restriction.

    What about hypothermia?
