    hahaha... yes i was actually kinda taking the piss.

    I would not rule out something like that catching on when you consider what happened with the ice bucket yoke.

    Interesting social experiment and just goes to show what a big bunch of sheep we all are.

    I remember the mother would always say this when i followed someone i doing something stupid.

    "Would you stick your hand in the fire if he did it?"

    Get a few celebs to do it and i guarantee it would sweep around the world with a load of plebs trying it out.

    Every time I catch a glimpse of one of them "Ice bucket" vids, I always hear the voice of Big Davy in my head - like a bare-knuckle call out,

    "This is going out to you, Angela, ya big babby, and Jim and Little Tom. I'll take your challenge, and I'll bate it, like I bet your brother..See if ye are man enough..I'm in the prime of me life..."

    Richard Pryor took the challenge and passed it. Only a month or three in hospital with 60% burns. He was smoking crack at the time so forgot the charity he nominated.

    Any of our younger members think I'm joking, google the man. Better still, watch him on Youtube.

    Can't wait to do the "Something that by its nature or character serves as a call to battle, contest, special effort Challenge"

    or the Challenge Challenge as I call it.
