Ludacris has let listeners know he feels perfectly fine — superhuman, even — after drinking water directly from a glacier in Alaska.

While in the Northern state to perform at the Alaska State Fair last week (August 23), Luda found time to witness the natural splendour and stay hydrated in his quest for a flavour many steps above Chicken-n-Beer, filming himself sipping crystal clear H2O straight from a mass of ice.

"I couldn't come here and just have a show," he says in the clip. "You know I got a bucket list — or as I like to call it, the 'fuck it' list. I've never tasted fresh glacial water ever in my life, and this is a first."

Luda captioned his clip, "Water So Good It Tastes Like GOD Made It. Well, Because He Did."

Despite his enthusiasm, viewers of Luda's video felt he was a little too quick to "Act a Fool," given that he appears to skip any and all water filtration or disinfection steps. 

As clear as it appears, water from a glacier may still contain bacteria or pathogens which could prove harmful to the human body.

O'Shea Jackson Jr, son of Ice Cube, shared a video of a TikTok user recounting their experience of becoming sick for two weeks after sipping glacier water in similar fashion.

However, Ludacris later shared how he felt no effects afterwards, sharing, "For everybody asking me how that glacial water really tasted, and when I tell y'all I'm a water snob, it was the best tasting water I've ever had in my life."

"As I drank it, I felt like every cell in my human body was being hydrated and rejuvenated at the same damn time … I feel like Superman," he elaborated. "Love to all the fans. It's different ways of life. I'm just trying to take y'all places and show y'all things. Come on now."
