Ice Bucket Challenge?

There are 3 things in this world that Kolby Johnson can't abide:  Paula Abdul, reggae music, and cold water.  In fact, I think the last one on the list is his kryptonite.  When the challenge to raise money for ALS started going around the Internet, I knew Kolby was starting to squirm in his seat.  It wasn't long before his nephews challenged him to do it.  And we all knew we were about to see something real special - a grown man chicken out and go underground.  Next thing we knew, he's dug this beauty out of storage - an insanely constricting wet suit he bought from the DI in high school.  It took three of us using every ounce of muscle to get him into it, and the zippers were bulging but he completed the challenge.  Does it count if he only felt the sting of the ice on his bare feet?  His true challenge then became removing the wet suit.  The hood was so tight, we nearly pulled his head off.  But I've got to give it to a guy in his late 30s that can still fit into his high school wetsuit!
