Chris Pratt Showered In Ice Is Every Girl's Dream

by Emma Goddard

In what has become viral throughout the U.S., the Ice Bucket Challenge, created to help spread awareness for ALS — also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease — has generated a major following from celebrities and us little people alike. From The Fault in Our Stars actor Ansel Elgort taking the challenge and donating $500, to the Kennedy family doing so and also nominating President Obama (as many people have), the support is ongoing. However, while many of the Ice Bucket Challenges out there have been pretty similar, some individuals have taken a more comedic route to the challenge. Guardians of the Galaxy actor Chris Pratt brought a hilarious twist to the Ice Bucket Challenge, providing us with a unique take that many of us probably haven’t seen on our Facebook news feeds.

Although I know that, personally, I would have liked to see Pratt pouring icy cold water over himself shirtless, his adorably funny video made up for that. Those abs, though. Rather than submitting to the cold as thousands of others have, the actor decided to substitute in his own version of “ice” with two alcoholic beverages. Classic. I’ll drink to that!

However, if you thought it couldn’t get any better than that, you are quite mistaken. The video only becomes more hysterical when two women (one who could possibly be his wife Anna Faris) poured two buckets over ice water on Pratt from a balcony above. And it wasn’t scripted, which is the best part of it all. Poor guy didn’t see it coming. Pratt may not have been prepared for the freezing change in plans, but it all made for what is probably one of the best videos out there.
