VIDEO: Irishman takes the Ice Bucket Challenge atop New York skyscraper

A Donegal man has gone one further with perhaps the biggest ever Ice Bucket Challenge to date.

Not only did Niall Gillespie complete his challenge on top of a partially-built skyscraper above New York, but he also used a construction bucket holding hundreds of gallons of freezing water.

Niall completed the challenge with his buddy Henrique Almeida and even took off his hard hat.
