One of the biggest stunts online and in social media right now had very low-key beginnings on the professional golf circuit.

The so-called ice-bucket challenge—dump ice water on yourself, post and tag yourself on social media and challenge others to do the same—got its start among golfers as a way to support pet charities. In just a few weeks, it has become a major fundraising coup for patients and organizations with ALS, a neurodegenerative disorder. It is commonly called Lou Gehrig's disease, after the baseball player who had it.
這個(gè)叫做“冰桶挑戰(zhàn)”的活動(dòng)要求參與人將一桶冰水澆在自己身上，然后將整個(gè)過程發(fā)布在社交網(wǎng)站上，并提名其他人來(lái)接受挑戰(zhàn)，這個(gè)活動(dòng)最初是高爾夫球員為支持寵物慈善發(fā)起的。在短短幾周內(nèi)，冰桶挑戰(zhàn)成為為肌萎縮性脊髓側(cè)索硬化癥（ASL）患者和相關(guān)公益組織籌集善款的重要活動(dòng)。肌萎縮性脊髓側(cè)索硬化癥通常被稱為葛雷克氏癥，是以曾經(jīng)患有此癥的一位棒球運(yùn)動(dòng)員的名字命名的。
One common stipulation gives 24 hours to complete the dare from the time they are nominated; otherwise, the participant has to donate at least $100 to the ASL Association.
