TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO GOT MAD AT ME FOR THIS VIDEO: Since the ice bucket challenge began, over 15 million dollars has been raised for ALS research. I think thats great, but when you consider all the star power of Robert Downey Jr., Dwayne The Rock Johnson, Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, and countless other A-list celebrities who have actively gotten behind this cause by posting videos-- the fact that not more than fifteen million dollars has been raised is a tragedy. Its tragic because I dont believe one of those celebrities even bothered to share the slightest clue about how or where to donate money for ALS research-- hell, I think Charlie Sheen and Bill Gates were the only ones who even hinted that the entire point IS to donate money. All those other celebrities just poured water over their heads and named three random people, without including any call to action which actually benefits victims of ALS at all. Had all those celebrities given this cause any thought, hundreds of millions of dollars might have been raised, and a whole lot more awareness. Lets start a new trend-- by actually letting people know how to donate-- visit this page: alsa.org/donate/ Im nowhere near as rich or famous as many of the folks youve seen pour water on their heads, but I cared enough to get educated and donate one thousand dollars of my hard-earned money to alsa.org/donate/ With love, Steve-O
