ALS Ice Bucket Challenge Gone Viral

The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge has exploded online as a viral phenomenon, prompting new interest and attention towards the ALS disease. ALS, also known as “Lou Gehrig’s Disease,” is a muscular degenerative disorder that affects the muscle neurons of the body. Eventually, it leads to paralysis, vital organ failure and, in some cases, death.

This social media phenomenon involves dumping a pail of ice cold water over your head and then challenging three other people to do the same within 24 hours. If you do not accept the task, you will have to donate $100 to the ALS Association which fights amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.

Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga and Mark Zuckerberg have all taken on the ice bucket challenge, unfortunately President Obama turned down Justin Bieber’s nomination but pledged to make a donation.

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg jumps on the viral Ice Bucket Challenge trend, challenging Bill Gates to do the same to raise awareness of motor neurone disease.

Justin Bieber – Ice Bucket Challenge

First time round Justin Bieber, similarly to Charlie Sheen, didn’t quite get it and decided not to use ice or a bucket to complete the challenge, creatively opting for a saucepan and just water. That’s more like it! After admitting his Saturday attempt at the ALS ice bucket challenge was feeble, Justin Bieber repeated the challenge on Sunday, and for good measure did it topless

This blog is a platform to share what I love in life: food (eat), travel (play), photography (art) and life (thoughts and ideas). With passion for food, I share my foodie adventures and indulgences here. “There is no love sincerer than the love of food.”

Traveling makes us a better human being as we recognise the similarities and celebrate the differences of cultures between where we travel to and where we come from. “The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.”

Photography do more than just capturing the best moments in our lives; they also help us tell our life stories. “Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”
