Benedict Cumberbatch gets five icy hits during his Ice Bucket Challenge

LOS ANGELES: Actor Benedict Cumberbatch stripped down for his ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, which was shared by the Moto Neurone Disease Association last week.

In the two-minute video, the 'Sherlock' star gets doused not only with just one bucket of freezing cold water, but five icy hits, reported Us magazine.

"I've been nominated to take the Ice Bucket Challenge by Tom Hiddleston. Please text and donate generously and... Bring a bucket," he said.





In other ice-dumping rounds, Cumberbatch, 38, gets hit while wearing a suit, hanging out in the shower, and sitting on his motorcycle.










The elegant British actor nominated producer Harvey Weinstein, Australian pop star Kylie Minogue, and race car driver Lewis Hamilton to complete the challenge.
