Multi-billionaire Bill Gates has dunked himself in ice water after being challenged by Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg.
The Microsoft pioneer took the Ice Bucket Challenge to raise awareness for ALS, also known as Lou Gherig's disease, or motor neurone disease.
The video - posted on his gatesnotes blog - shows Mr Gates watching Mr Zuckerberg nominate him and then rigging up an elaborate tipping mechanism to out-do the Facebook boss.
