Free Hugs Campaign! v. newfoundland

[CMPFMS]

I want a hug too!

[MrMonopoly2007]

should make an updated version call it Free H1N1 .

[FromOutOfTheMist2008]

haha i huged these peoplez ^^

i love living in Newfoundland cause most people are so nice here!

[scamoo]

That's true, when my friends and I are downtown if we see someone who looks or for some reason is epic or we think needs a hug we just go up and ask ^_^ Though Newfoundland his it's problems so does every other province, every other country and I still think Newfoundlanders are the nicest people I have ever met (My grandparents are from NL but I lived in Ontario for most of my life)

[newfienow]

great video. You are right from what I have seen. I have lived other places and Newfoundland has a low crime rate (although crime is everywhere) and it is very friendly and beautiful. Thanks for posting this video.

[CarbonBullets]

Not EVERY one participates in our annual, Seal Hunt, that We have been doing for hundreds of years. 1. Baby Seals "white coats" have not been hunted since the 80's. 2. No clubs, clubs are banned from the hunt,3. guns are used for instant death. if you think this hunt is cruel then walk into a chicken farm, watch them get there beeks cut off in the first month of life. then tell me a instant death of a seal is crule, and look at the whole "hunting for Sport", killing for the antlers.

[NEWFiSH2984]

Hey Everyone! To see how nice warm-hearted hugglie-wugglie Newfoundlanders are & hug, kiss & care for Harp Seals, type "Seal Hunt" up at the top here on Youtube in the Search videos box! Can you believe a group of people could be capable of that much love? Love them to death. Hey, if Newfoundlanders are capable of such love toward a mother & her child, just imagine what they could express when it comes to their spouse & people too! GO Look! Check out the 3rd seal hunt video in search. *WarmHUG*!

[Ross175]

you speak as if people from the province of newfoundland were handicapped or from a different planet

[MelissaEmmaLilly]

NO she is only speakin the truth! Newfoundland ia a beautiful place, the people are so nice an loveing! It has pretty much NO violence too!

Thats why I moved here!

[Ross175]

no your right, thats the same reason i stay here

[NEWFiSH2984]

Yeah! Newfoundland has No violence Look!

NEWS: "St. Johns - A Newfoundland man has been charged with assault, enslavement, forcible entering, following a break-in on Mundy Pond Rd Friday. The Newfoundlander was arrested after police were called to the centre city home where he allegedly forced his way in, & attacked a woman."

"Newfoundland school teacher charged with assaulting autistic boy"

"Dunville man charged with 2 counts of sexual assault"

"St Johns man facing weapons charges!"

[OneTreeHIll1992]

man your a sick fuck... like other places in the world havent had worse things like the USA hmmm lets see rape, gang voilence, drugs, everything in the book all the us is capable of is to produce hard criminals , so next time just think of that dick head

[1961GibsonSG]

Are you a vegitarian? Are you completely free of animal products of any type?

If the answer to any of those questions was "no", and It's a pretty safe bet it was, please take your ignorant, smartass attitude elsewhere.

Otherwise, explain how that's different from raising cattle for food or any other type of livestock.

Newfoundland's not perfect. It's not all that special. It's also not some hick province with a bunch of barbarians.

[jodyjody25]

[MoseyBurns]

You should have got in there more with the camera. I know it seems invasive but it would make the video much more interesting to watch.

[NinaMarie6320]

[kefka666333abc123]

[misscanada2007g]

[Spikeymiss]

Hugs From Labrador :)

[roflmissle]

Good stuff, I heard about free hug day, I didnt bring a sign to school, but i still offered my hugs up to anyone. I was called a few names, but more importantly I made a few friends. Keep bringing the love, peace!

[Covey69]

Nice up beat song , I thought it went together well personally. Stepping outside the box is cool, most people wouldn't have the guts to do what you did. I Liked it.. I really could use a hug but I'm way over in Edmonton Alberta, lol.

[aminakoyum]

you are all dicked i mean hugged...

[sfrancis2]

Wow haha. Alot more hugs than the original I think. Newfies are the coolest :P  yay us!

[endofeverything123]

is that josh deveraux in the video?

[endofeverything123]

us crazy newfies FTW

[MAFoley54]

Buch of assholes, go do something productive with your time!!

[YuukaYagami]

Free hugs from Edmonton!

[Nesdoog]

Hugs from here in St.Johns. It's nice to see.

[picturesinclouds]

Watch LONG BEACHIN WITH MO

here on you tube, there is an accoustic version of "all the same" with interviews w/sick puppies & Juan Mann,

hug away.

[ninoisagod]

shoulda kept the og song

[jsfunfun]

are ya'll screeched? (sp?)

[syriush]

Yo! Super Crazy Pozitive action :-) Hugs from Poland

[tyciol]

Noone knows everyone else in a uni. At least it would help connect a campus. It doesn't matter how foreign the neighbourhood you're hugging in is, it's still better than nothing. Considering it's a pair of girls doing it rather than a super-tall australian guy, I'd say starting somewhere comfortable is wise rather than in the middle of city. The point is, make it spread.

As for the music, again, better than nothing. The first made it lovely, this makes it cool. The point is to get it around!

[Mas35NYR]

~Hugs from NYC~

[nolo1973]

Black Eyed Peas sings the song and I agree it is distracting. I dance to it more than watch the video. Hugs from Buffalo,NY!

[Piliskner]

Yea I have to agree this is absolutely diferent from the original one the point is not to hug most ppl. You kinda ruined the whole idea.

[theduderinok]

i think its great...classmates or strangers..i doesn't matter..hugs are hugs...its all good! :) And the music works great too in my opinion. nice!!

[fluidstatic]

Must do this in PDX.

[heatherisrad]

Well i think the music is awesome. Althought i don't know who this is.

[archergirl2000]

Still counts as strangers cause Universities are pretty big, I'm sure they didn't know everybody ;)

Much love to you guys!

[tktoadE]

To everyone who loves the Free Hugs Movement: come see the Free Hugs Movement alive and well from around the World--- Australia to Korea to Poland and much more in the new YouTube Free Hugs Group at youtube(dot com)/group/FreeHugsMovement !!! You are welcome to join and discuss with others and share videos.

A big hug to you from the USA!

[Jlobedou]

Agree with killerclair! Better stick to the sick poppies's!! HUGS!

[killerclair]

the music RUINS the video.

[Arlakossa]

Beautiful, wonderful. Huggers ftw.

[p0ison1vy]

i think the point of this is to do it to complete strangers, not kids that go to your school.

but kudos that you did it at all

goodgoodgood

[juliaforgreenday]

Could've used different music...so not doing it justice :'(

[juliaforgreenday]

Haha i love that you guys did this!

So sweet..i'd like to try it sometime :)

p.s. i'm a newfie too I just read about this in my sister's MUN newspaper so i decided to look for it! haha Newfies Rock!

[Sowhattt]

CANADIAN HUGS ARE THE BEST<3<3

omg, I'm so glad someone is preading the love... keep it up guys... huggers from all over the world keep on huggin'

[infinitevil]

I attend MUN and I missed all the free hugs :(

[lilgreendude]

Good job.

[beltanegoddess]

Hugs from California!!

[Knighthis]

i like how you creepy retards flock to anyone that stops, and then you almost seem to demand the hugs, the idea was good, but why cant you just go and do it, and not freak out and have to post it on the internet

[kmann23]

I am all for the free hugs campaign but the problem I have with this video is why a University? I mean it's just to easy. The free hugs campaign should be on the city streets. Where you can meet all kinds of people, not just university students.

[chrizcrozz]

Agree to that.. spread the love to other people... old people, kids, disabled, everyone....

[mneeve]

Who cares it they did it on a university campus, the hug campaign was for people that "need a hug", some students are far more stressed out than "people on the street". Whereever, whenever, and whoever shouldn't matter, as long as people are doing it.

[Bobdolepants]

Proves there all good people in the world, this increased my faith in human beings. Get more huggers out there!

[debcoart]

Fantastic!!! Love it and the music that you picked. Thanks for passing on the Free Hugs!!! come see the painting that I made for Juan and Shimon.

[angel48]

awesome that you guys tried this. hugs.

[shymmy]

yeah canada rocks, newfies rock, from alberta myself, been meaning to visit newfoundland one of these days, keep up the good work.

[Vinzaf]

Could have used some Newfoundland music. ;/

[endres85]

Wow that so cool,

I have been thinking about doing this at my college. Can you give me any pointers. Did you ask the college if you could do this or was it just random? thanks

from a college student in Michgan, USA

[chrizcrozz]

Look for Juan Mann, the man who started it all at Australia and also the Korean. You'll know their purpose. Its not doing it just for fun...

[sakisimple]

Awesome

[GoddessGood]

I dunno, seemed to me that the music was appropriate enough. It looked like maybe the guys that came up just wanted to hug a girl. I don't know if or how much this video was sped up, but the hugs were of a rather short duration ... more like polite hellos than real heartfelt hugs. Just my opinion.

[mazi07]

it was done in double time so it wouldnt be long and boring. 7 minutes of hugs isnt as fun to watch :P

[BSchmidt959]

jeez. you guys were trying to look cool, and adding popular music...

you need to find music thats actually on the level, and has the same feeling

[kingafrokyle]

Nice one guys!!!

such an awesome thing you guys are spreading the msg!

Peace

Kyle

[SmashBass]

Great idea. I can't watch this though. Hearing (c)rappers butcher Dick Dale's music is more like a stab in the eye than a hug. Yeah, change the music. Use the original track not this rubbish. Happy hugging!

[paulito332]

remember: all we need si love!! from uruguay south-america

[hamdi02]

yess CANADA

[bjtindle]

To all you poo pooer's, get a life. Hugs to everyone in this video! Good job.

[tvitems]

i love how poeple are sitting there on the benches chillin and watchin. hah

[Phil2o06]

Hug at their best but like the others said the choice of music was pretty bad.

[miezu]

get a real job

[guy2759]

You gotta change the song..it's too fast

[jcastanza]

I hope the mojo continues to grow. We have to remember that Dave Matthews started it all.

[zapmaster100]

lol i did this at my school

[TrialLeadSinger]

The music isn't doing it justice. Good job though on the campaign.

[connie727]

good on you

[Egregius]

I love this response. Too bad the music selected is a rape of a Dick Dale song. :(

[ellywig]

I want a free hug *pouts* Maybe I can hang around the UC randomly in hopes they'll come back... or offer my services around final exams when people really need the lovin' XD

[hmarty]

ellywig, start your own movement darlin. that is what this is all about. If you aren't being hugged, you aren't huggin! Peace Hope you are hugged and hugged.

[nsnsuperwoman]

I need to walk by the UC more often :P Next time have a traveling free hugs campaign to bring hugs and joy to all mun students! :D

[DeLaRime]

keep on going .. nice

[Infuel]

nice job, takes courage to do it, Gratulations, but the song just doesn't give it the right touch ;)

[vodkacrumble]

no, 'my humps' would have definitely made the whole production more classy, i feel.

[wojtek198900]

haha... good

[MrFrankBullitt]

I just realized how stupid the lyrics to this song are.

[isohy]

Great work...

[Fangen88]

such a positive reaction from people :)

[PeaceOnEarth123]

Excellent!
