Drew Carey's reaction to this ice bucket challenge is spot on. It is disgusting.

By SHAUNA ANDERSON

It’s almost unthinkable that anyone thought this would be funny.

An autistic teenager in the US thought he was taking part in the Ice Bucket Challenge that has gone viral on social media raising awareness for ALS/ MND.

He thought he was taking part in something meaningful.

Something fun and lighthearted.

What happened was deplorable.

The teenager from Ohio was tricked into having faeces, urine, cigarette butts and spit dumped on him. His horrified mother found the video on his phone.

His mother told WJLA that he was embarrassed and didn’t want to tell anyone after the incident.

According to ABC 5 in Cleveland the bullies made the 14-year old boy strip naked and filmed the incident.

And then in a display of disgusting human behaviour they uploaded and shared it to Instagram.

The sickening video is still available on YouTube but we have chosen not to share it or show images from it. We don’t believe videos like this deserve any views, any airtime or any publicity.

What they do deserve though is exactly what comedian Drew Carey is calling for –  retribution.

The US comedian saw the video and tweeted.

He then went a step further and offered $10,000 to anyone who could find the perpetrators.

He was quickly followed by other celebrities.

Jenny McCarthy matched his $10,000 and then her husband Donnie Wahlberg went on Twitter  to say that he too would add to the reward, increasing the total to $30,000.

Wahlberg referred to the incident as a “‘shitty prank.”

TV personality Montel Williams voiced his support too, writing on Facebook that the parents of these teenagers need to take responsibility as well.

“Teach your children well. Quite frankly, the parents of the kids who did this ought to go to jail too.”

He pledged a “significant contribution” towards the reward fund. “Drew is a great guy — I wldnt have known if it wasn’t for him,” Williams wrote.

The local police department have released a statement saying they are working with the high school to bring forth charges to the students involved.

Meanwhile the REAL ALS/ MND challenge has received over $110.5 million in Ice Bucket Challenge donations.
