Rapper-turned-actor Chris “Ludacris” Bridges sparked concern from some social media followers when he knelt on an Alaska glacier, dipped an empty water bottle into a blue, pristine pool of water and drank it. But an expert on glaciers from the University of Alaska in Fairbanks said the online brouhaha “was ludicrous.” “He’s totally fine,” glaciologist Martin Truffer said Wednesday. “It’s sort of understandable that somebody would be concerned about just drinking untreated water, but if you drink water from a melt stream on a glacier, that’s about the cleanest water you’ll ever get.”
