Yeah I think all guys there know that these viral things are for charity etc.
People thought it was silly two summers ago, but the Ice Bucket Challenge Internet sensation actually gathered enough funds to make an important breakthrough in ALS research.
The University of Massachusetts Medical School's Project MinE recently discovered the gene that is responsible for ALS. Project MinE scientists were able to research this gene with help from the ALS Association, which donated $1 million from the Ice Bucket Challenge.
The identified gene is NEK1, which its variants could provide clues to understanding and potentially treating familial and sporadic ALS.
"The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge enabled us to secure funding from new sources in new parts of the world," Bernard Muller, founder of Project MinE and ALS patient, said in a statement. "This transatlantic collaboration supports our global gene hunt to identify the genetic drivers of ALS."

Glad to see that something good came out of the Ice Bucket Challenge.

There needs to be more such charity kind-of challenges...
This challenge was made to understand what people go through who have an ALS...
-I'm glad that the challenge was a helpful one even though it was extremely stupid.

ALS is really sad but there are people taking advantage of people's sympathy to scam a couple bucks
YESS! My fucking death flashing before my eyes was no longer in vain.

I am not a middleman nor do I buy/sell anything. If you are being contacted by someone off-site from MPGH then it's not me! Please report these to me via PM. Don't be stupid, think first.
It was for a good cause but people took it too far.
