Many african tribes (and a lot of other around the world) used to live damn fine (with food, water, and all what they needed...) and then the goverments, coloners and other invaders started pushing them from the "good parts" of the lands...Australian aborigins were pushed to live in the hardest part of the land...with almost no water, food...but they still alive...it's not about sharing, its about kicking the others ass...Venezuelan indigenous were almost exterminated...killed or used as slaves

first: only idiots with more $ then sense pay 10K for a bag.second: its not the fault of the rich that these people live in shithole Africa with no water. If they need better lives, they should move, migrate, ruuuuun to somewhere with clean water. Instead of just being a typical loser african with their hands out to the world. Solve their own problems.

What a pity that in the rich world, women pay $10,000+ just for a Gucci handbag - whilst these fine people have to beg for a well so they can give clean water to their families. What we have, we must share, if this is to stop.

Yeah, wonderful. If EVERY SINGLE RICH CELEBRITY did their part, that would be great, but they don't. A few here and there, the richest of the rich is fine and dandy but what about everyone else? I don't need to "find out first" before I comment. I already know. You need to realize that "what you said applies to only a few and more needs to be done" before you knock a comment.

The one who was sent to hospital discharged himself and went back to the place he stopped and finished the marathon the next day! Such pride!! They have raised over £60,000 and still counting. Incredible people.

They made front page of The Guardian today. Four out of the six finished in 5h 24min: well done guys! Isaya felt ill after 12 miles and left with another warrior. I understand he received hospital treatment and I hope is now OK. The 4 finishers were interviewed briefly on BBC yesterday and did not look tired at all.
