The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge has taken the world by storm and has even made it’s way to South Africa – and man, have those videos been hilarious! To celebrate this phenomena, I thought I would share my favourite videos from around the world with you guys!
First, a little history behind the trend. The point is to raise awareness, and some funds, for the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Association in the United States. Here, you can either donate money or dump a bucket of ice on your head. After the ice has been dumped, the person then nominates more people to do the same.
Now one may think that the celebrities are not helping the cause by dumping ice on themselves, but, the organization has raised over $15,6 million! Last year by this time the organization only raised $50 000 so I think the celebrities have done a fantastic deed here. These are some of my favourites:
Taylor Swift
The Vamps & Fifth Harmony
Katlego Maboe
