News: We would like to thank and hug every one of you for making this video Youtube video of the year! Check out our video thank you message here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99CuM6abT2Q-----------------------------------------------Sometimes, a hug is all what we need. Free hugs is a real life controversial story of Juan Mann, A man whos sole mission was to reach out and hug a stranger to brighten up their lives. In this age of social disconnectivity and lack of human contact, the effects of the Free Hugs campaign became phenomenal.As this symbol of human hope spread accross the city, police and officials ordered the Free Hugs campaign BANNED. What we then witness is the true spirit of humanity come together in what can only be described as awe inspiring.In the Spirit of the free hugs campaign, PASS THIS TO A FRIEND and HUG A STRANGER! After all, If you can reach just one person...Music by Sick Puppies. Their album is out April 3rd called "Dressed Up As Life". Go out and support these guys.(Visit http://sickpuppies.net or http://myspace.com/sickpuppies for the music)-------------------------------------------------PS. The response to this video has been nothing short of overwhelming and touching. Hugs to every single one of you who messaged. There has been thousands of emails from all over the world by people seeking to participate in the Free Hugs campaign and asking for permission. You do not need permission. This is the peoples movement, this is *your* movement. With nothing but your bare hands you can make THE difference. Imagine all the people.------------------------------------------------http://www.freehugscampaign.orghttp://www.myspace.com/freehugscampaignPress/media/management contact:paul.stepanek@oninternational.com

Jul 20, 2008 - That's crazy. I feel like crying now. I was in a bad mood and my friend passed on this link to me - It. Is. Amazing. Unfortunatly, I'm on the same island as ApocolypticDeath, however I find that it doesn't matter. Have a sign that says "Free Hugs" hagning around your neck... You know, I might actually do this.

Jul 20, 2008 - Its intresting how the police or security gaurds there wanted to ban the free hugs? they just want to dehumanise sociaty. their point of view is the more time spent hugging the less time spent shopping. bastards
