Bill Gates takes the ALS ice bucket challenge like a boss. +1 for the funny face he makes when the ice water hits.

Unlike the Menea Tu Chapa dance challenge that came before this, this ice bucket challenge wastes water when we're in a drought. People should be more considerate of the environmental impact when they start these fads.

Bill lives in Northwest Washington in a suburb of Seattle and, yes, on a lake (Lake Washington).Do you understand that not the whole world is in drought right now? From the river/lake/pond at his feet I am pretty sure Mr. Gates is not at this moment truly wasting water.

I sure hope you are making a funny.. if not..then
Apparently you don't know how water works.
When you use it.. it doesn't just go away. You should go back to school and start in kindergarten. Of course that might be a waste of time since they really don't teach much of anything that is useful in school anymore.
And the "whole world being in a drought".. ummm.. no. And I am not the only one that would disagree with you.
What was he doing with the propane torch?
Back in the day I had an animated gif of Bill Gates growing red horns and a pointy beard on a web page. Wish I would have kept a copy of it. It was funny.
Lets hope Elon Musk shows this patent troll better sense.

Just because he lives on or near a lake doesn't mean half of Washington is not in a drought status. The water obviously is from city water judging by how clear it is compared to how green the lake is. Sort of expected more originality, creativity and intelligence.
Next time, write a QQ letter to the city of LA for not changing out there two iron cast pipes that popped last month and wasted 20 million gallons of water a piece before you whine about people wasting water and environmental impacts.

Yeah the handiman nerd in me went WTF with that... ummm MAPP gas (yellow container, propane is blue) on a bar does nothing... and you sure as hell didn't need the welding mask with anything you do with the torchWhat was he doing with the propane torch?
I used to think he was a cold hearted a**hole in the 1990's; but given his activities after he effectivly left Microsoft, I have nothing but admiration for him. He is actually a good human being.
For a guy who supposedly is giving away his money, he gained $7 BILLION between 2013 and 2014 (Microsoft makes up less than 20 percent of his total fortune).
Every time I see somebody do something for charity and/or raising awareness, it never fails to see people QQing about how they go about it. And in return all it does is make me want to do something out of spite.

Didn't take long for some conservatroll to compare Bill Gates to Hitler, Nazi Germany, and etc. Fact is, he has done more for the world than just about any conservative.Not too impressed with billionaires daring other billionaires to do stuff that is staged and filmed. The lint from their clothes probably contains enough $ to pay for whatever cause they wanted to fully fund!! The first 16 seconds seems like a promo for the Surface 3!!
Jobs coming back to Apple was the best PR ever for Gates. Before this happened, most people felt THIS way about Gates and with good reason..
I still don't think Gates is all that charming and admirable..

I love how he pretends to draw up the plans (despite them clearly being computer drawn), and then pretends to assemble the rig using a propane torch (despite the poles being clipped together).
Nothing says "I care about ALS" quite like having someones else do all the hard work for you.
Make a (tax deductable) donation to ALS? Check. Spend the afternoon building a ice water rig? Nope, too busy counting his money.
I'm surprised he didn't pay a professional stunt-double to take that cold shower as well.
