It's time we stop doing the challenge already. Just donate if you get challenged. And perhaps it is a good time to also donate to other pressing matters. Here are 15 reasons:

1. Safety is important.

2. Riding on a horse while doing it is just plain stupid.

3. Collateral damage.

4. If you can't take the cold, don't do it.

5. Other people can get hurt.

6. The bucket can hurt you.

7. Your bikini might not be able to take the cold.

8. Sometimes, the bucket is heavier than you think.

9. You might endanger your child.

10. Your friends might do this to you:

11. You'll need more than $100 to fix your gutters.

12. Your funky hairdo gets ruined.

13. You might get sabotaged.

14. Or slip, even before you can take the challenge.
