That doesn't count!

It wasn't a bucket.
Have you watched many of them? All kinds of different containers have been used in the challenge.
Yes I have. Explain to me how it doesn't change the observation that it isn't a bucket.

Ah Joel you are like me. A purist. I know people use whatever they have handy if they don't happen to have a bucket.

So the solution is to lie in wait for the next time Mat comes back to Australia. Wait until he's relaxed and then spring out of nowhere with a bucket of ice water.

I wasn't commenting on it not being a bucket; I was commenting on it not counting. If that's the case, then a huge percentage of the other challenges also don't count.

To me the point isn't the dunking. The point is donating money afterwards. The video bit is just something fun to share with friends because watching somebody writing a check just isn't exciting enough to go viral. (As much as I love watching Patrick Stewart, that's probably not going to be good enough for everybody else. )

I think the only thing that could be more viral is some charity urging you to post you doing something funny with your cats. People go crazy over cat videos. I'll admit to a weakness for that kind of stuff too. :)

Really? For some reason, I never took you for watching online cat videos.


LOL!

I think it's great fun and all for a good cause. It's brilliant to see famous faces doing it too and best of all I loved Cub's one with Tex himself giving him a soaking. He was on my list of people I nearly nominated. Just wanting to share the fun with friends!

As I posted on BFG, Tex really DID cheat. i know, I know, Tex is the fedora, the fedora is Tex, so it's only fitting he would wear it, but still......

I agree Chandler. At the very least his hair should have gotten wet.

I guess it's a testimony to how good an outfit the trench coat and fedora are for everyday wear.

Should have challenged Chris Jones - there would have been no Fedora that way, but clever thinking by Tex!

I don't own a trench coat any more, but I have 3 fedoras and they do work very well to keep rain off.
