Amazing social experiment!

[Cooludeful]

LOL at hugging the police officer. He soo wished he could just hug back.

[crazymusicgrl]

How.. Did hugging get banned?

[frankjutay]

I cried while watching this.... Thanks

[theoriginalako]

I'm smiling...this video hugged my heart.

[iml5xo]

-hugs- :)



[TheLiLPinkWinker]

This always makes me smile =)

[TheJacward]

That's touching. But I'm sorry, if I saw a guy with that sign, I'd assume that he was either a creep or was going to shank or grope me as soon as I went in for the hug :3

[systematic101]

@TheJacward That kinda should a problem with society as a whole. We tend to fear each other. Though I do understand the logic behind assuming the worst. 

[siriah1976]

Looks like 8 people does not know what it feels like to be hugged.

[Jesus45U]

Heh, the Danish police once did a "Hug the cyclists" campain.

[kurtattard]

this isnt a social experiment

this guy does that every day ! :D

[iAMVyt]

Anyone notice most of the huggers were female, lol. I bet if a female held a sign like that people would be all over her.

[gps456]

If I'm there, I'll sign the petition even if I won't avail of the free hugs though I'll really avail them when offered.

[AhoySavannah]

Oh the tears :')

[MIZZIELUV1996]

THIS IS SO TOUCHING THIS IS EXACACTLY WHAT THE GOVERNMENT DOESNT WANT US TO DO -LIVE TOGETHA IN PEACE AND HARMONY LETS PROVE THEM WRONG

[Jerbod2]

Now put a damn hot chick in a electronics shop - 80% of all men will hug her :D

[DRcaprice]

i will never trust people this much. i have my reasons and i dont give a fuck if i have right or not to say this. why are you fucking people crying? your just putting unnecessary trust in others, i understand that there are a lot of good people out there, but dont ever let your guard down because there are just as many bad people out there too, you just dont know. just look at some of the bad things humanities done. dont even have to put effort into it.

[someQsAsandOs]

So beautiful, I was excited and on the verge of tears the whole time. Keep up the good work! God bless you and your efforts.

[ColdClamChowder]

No, I'm not crying. I've got sand in my eyes. :(

[SuperWolfies]

I hardly ever get moved by things..

This video made me cry!

I'm so shy.. when people would carry those signs around where I live, I would just get embarrassed and walk away..

But now, I think I will hug them!

We're all human! No need to be shy! <3

[Kwantain17]

This was BEAUTIFUL !!!!!!

And i'm someone who doesn't feel any emotion lol

:D

[widdawiddawaldo]

man, that was beautiful <3 really put a smile on my face after a hard day at work x

[jhonnymock]

[yandroskhaos]

Left me with a smile on my face

[Apathyisthenewpissed]

Heh, of course the government wants to ban it.

[belauidid]

[kanook]

[NUJUNAUGHT]

THAT WAS THE COOLEST SHIT I EVER SEEN

[FEEDxURxHEAD]

[fomiz]

[Kwasi5179]

@fomiz ...then you need a hug

[fomiz]

@Kwasi5179 from now on anyone that replies to my comments and I dont like it will get a FUCK OFF regardless of what they say! Congratulations on being the fist! "FUCK OFF!"

[cbrstunter24]

Cops try to ruin everything

[UmYeahSoHereIam]

@ ethostvchannel, in Prosocial Behavior we show empathy and legit concern for others. "Altruism" is selfless concern for others. But in order to be Altruistic we must first have feelings of having the necessary skills to help, a sense of fellowship-responsibility to others and our a positive mood to have affective change. This video shows all of that. These "huggers" show security, responsibility, competency and positive mood..never getting anything back.That's Altruism at it's best. A+

[visual1677]

Wow this video is great i think i need a hug

[ethostvchannel]

Wha does this social experimet prooves? it's a trend to entertain

[cuzinoftheotherworld]

Amazing! It's nice to see some people not give up on humanity, or giving up their own humanity! It was really cool that some people that almost walked off did a double take and decided to get their free hugs!! Even the reluctant officers got a hug in the end!

[fabianroajs1988]

Wow! This video seriously brought some joy to my heart. Humanity isn't lost just yet with people like you here

[slyester33]

whats this amazing song?????

[driz27]

it is a disgrace...why do such a thing? fucking lonely freak...

[MatthewLeelev]

@driz27 I think you are a douchebag.. This was an awesome video.. =p

[YungZ905]

he's a gypsy pickpocket lol

[goudz23]

I'd give him a hug fa sho!

[XxrobotxX2]

I wonder what would happen if an unattractive person would try this

[hoonz915]

[trigea]

[TheLiLPinkWinker]

[asubjectiveopinion]

1:13 That's a beautiful moment.

[Magic9053]

BEAUTIFUL !

[Vampiresanddemonds]

This is so amazing, it really makes you think about how little people think about others around them. I would have given him a hug, and hug others too.

[rj2689]

it gives a new inspiration to all human...and for just a little hug!!!

[DaredevilnV]

I was driving in Edinburgh yday and this guy had a sign on his car that said Honk if you want a hug, so I did, he got out his car and we hugged and just went back to driving was great, its a good feeling to hug someone you don't know I'm going to do this one day I hope.

[RaZorXwireXbabyX]

Aw that first hug is just so cute. He's so tall and she's s little!

[rannedwards]

Great!!!! Great!!!! Great!!!! Great!!!! I am so full of joy. What a great social experiment....

[mary95601]

what's next, outlawing of people saying "I love you"? More power to Free Hugs Campaign... I think u should make a GIANT HUG all across America!:) PEACE!;)

[raddog13]

so he's going around hugging kids thats creepy!

[fasthandsz]

only reason why they hugged because of the camera around.

[rannedwards]

@fasthandsz They are totally unaware of the camera. The camera is not out in the open or visible to the people around.

[Purpleluver259]

sorry but i wouldnt hug a stranger because i have no idea if they wanna molest me or sumthin...but i would hug mickey mouse at disney world, but only cuz thats his job :D

[rannedwards]

@Purpleluver259 If you are a kid, that is a totally appropriate response.

[mechael1983]

I just want to cry!

[animereader1]

i totally hug people when they have these signs out :)

[ginaven1]

[danlikestacos]

[Jackjack505]

[fatima1quadaffi]

this was so sweet it made me cry idk why.... immagine if we all gave hugs instead of killing eachother and going to war with eachother

[EGarrett01]

Wow he must've pulled a SWEET number of wallets off those people.

:)

[lauranameo]

I remember a couple of people with thoes signs at the big bean in chicago. I hugged them and signed. It was nice.

I wish I got more hugs

[svcreddy91]

i wish the video quality was better though

[danlikestacos]

he copied it, if you search free hugs you get the good quality version

[KHSladyBALLA07]

Wow, that was amazing. Except for that stuck up cop at the end.

[agher1]

free hugs!!! <3

[un0m3asa13ah]

There are many days when I wish there was someone around to just give me a quick hug. Hugs are great.

[injectioncrisis]

That's so sweet! :D

[shiggityshwaaa]

[callmeservant]

I wish I would have found them dang it! lol :(

[aBeRcRoMbIeNY]

[RaZorXwireXbabyX]

You could get kicked out. I went to walmart and did this and I got kicked out.

[weedo84]

yeah ..I guess they dont wanna encourage pick pockets..

but hugs are great still hahha

[Bloodshotbuddah]

yeah well that was a store itself, if it was a more public place like a park or a street plaza youd be alright

[ultimatetalesfan19]

LOL

Yeah we would kick you out.

[lsuperstar1357]

This world should allow this. everyone needs a hug every once and a while

[Bloodshotbuddah]

Its little things like this that give you hope for humanity

[LunaticFringe40]

Who sings this song?

[LunaticFringe40]

Never mind, I see who it is now.

[rufflemania123]

all the same by sick puppies

[shea1888]

i've hugged people with those signs before :D

[ShotokanKarateRules]

"Free" hugs? I've never had to pay for a hug!

[callmeservant]

Hugs sometimes are given at a price just not money

[ShotokanKarateRules]

Ah ok, gotcha.

[watheller]

hugs are illegal in this great nation

[KempsGrl]

weird

[ItsnatalieS]

Rock on! Love you guys

[whitestkidsinthehall]

I have tears on my cheeks. So cute!

[GIshy2008]

[poisonwood23]

[Saph9292]

That was the most beautiful video - my heart melt every time I see it. Thank you.
