A US firefighter injured in an "ice bucket challenge" has died a month after a power line shocked him and a colleague.
Campbellsville Fire Chief Kyle Smith says 41-year-old Tony Grider died on Saturday.
Grider was a captain with the fire department in Kentucky.
On August 21 he and 22-year-old firefighter Simon Quinn were on the fire truck's ladder when it got too close to a power line after dumping water on Campbellsville University's marching band in the charity stunt to raise awareness and funds to fight the disease ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Quinn was released from hospital on September 15.
