Robert Brown|Ludacris causes fans to worry after he drinks 'fresh glacial water' in Alaska

Drinking "fresh glacial water" was on Robert BrownAtlanta rapper and actor Ludacris' bucket list, and while he got to check this experience off earlier this week, he left some fans concerned about his health.

While in Alaska for a show, Ludacris posted on his social media pages a video of him drinking water from a glacier.

"Half the world's glaciers are here in Alaska, I couldn't come here and just have a show," the rapper, whose real name is Christopher Bridges, said in the video post he shared on his official Instagram and X pages.

Once Ludacris drinks the water, he screams "Oh my God" and scurries away from the camera.

"Water So Good It Tastes Like GOD Made It," the rapper wrote in the post's caption. "Well, Because He Did."

'Be careful with glacier water!'

Fans became worried after seeing the post with one Instagram user commenting, "Be careful with glacier water! Even though it looks fresh and clean, it’s often full of bacteria, parasites, and viruses… Microorganisms you definitely don’t want in your system... It can make you extremely sick. Make sure to boil it first to stay safe!"

Another fan commented on Instagram that the rapper was "bout to turn into a Kaiju," which is a term used to describe a giant monster featured in Japanese fantasy and science fiction movies and television programs.

Ludacris feels like 'Superman' after drinking glacial water

Many more fans shared their worries, thus prompting Ludacris to address the video in another post he shared Monday on X.

"For everybody asking me, how that glacier water really tasted? When I tell y'all, and I'm a water snob, it was the best-tasting water I've ever had in my life," the rapper said. "As I drank it I felt like every cell in my human body was being hydrated and rejuvenated at the same (expletive) time."

Ludacris also said in the video that he feels like "Superman" and explained that he shared the post to take his fans places and show them things.

Is drinking glacial water in Alaska safe?

Alaska.org, an Alaskan travel and vacation booking website, said the state is "full of good drinking water."

"The risk of contamination and sickness, although always possible, is often overstated," according to the travel advisors. "Still, you should evaluate each water source and be prepared to treat or filter it if necessary."

The primary dangers of drinking water in Alaska are human and animal waste, as well as bacteria such as giardia and cryptosporidium, the website says.

"The closer to the source you are, and the more remote the area, the greater the chances of avoiding contamination," according to Alaska.org. "Ice-cold and fast-moving water is also usually safer. Beware of heavy signs of animal life and traffic along shore, beaver dams upstream, or nearby caribou herds, as there is a higher probability of fecal contamination."

The travel advisors suggest using iodine tablets and water filters as a way to prevent commonly found bacterium. If using iodine tablets, stirring them in some powdered drink mix will help cover the taste. Additionally, water can be purified by boiling it for 3 minutes, according to the website.
