As the world’s obsession with the ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) Ice Bucket Challenge is amusing the masses while celebrities challenge one another via their various social media mediums, leave it to the one nicknamed “The Filipino Flash” to up the ante.

Former five-division champion Nonito Donaire exchanged the tiny bucket most have been using—outside Kobe Bryant and others who opt for an ice bath— for an entire dunking booth filled with ice water in his ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. He also donated money for each dunk in the booth, which sets him above most of the celebrities who are taking the challenge to avoid paying a donation.

Donaire mentioned he recycled the water used in the challenge in his pool and the landscaping of his Las Vegas home. So no one can post that now infamous meme complaining that people are wasting water to NOT donate to charity aimed at Donaire.

In all Donaire said over $5,000 was donated to the ALS foundation and zero water wasted.
