HUG SOMEBODY OR AT LEAST SUBSCRIBE TO HIM

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.

"How it all started:

I'd been living in London when my world turned upside down and I'd had to come home. By the time my plane landed back in Sydney, all I had left was a carry on bag full of clothes and a world of troubles. No one to welcome me back, no place to call home. I was a tourist in my hometown.

Standing there in the arrivals terminal, watching other passengers meeting their waiting friends and family, with open arms and smiling faces, hugging and laughing together, I wanted someone out there to be waiting for me. To be happy to see me. To smile at me. To hug me.

So I got some cardboard and a marker and made a sign. I found the busiest pedestrian intersection in the city and held that sign aloft, with the words "Free Hugs" on both sides.

And for 15 minutes, people just stared right through me. The first person who stopped, tapped me on the shoulder and told me how her dog had just died that morning. How that morning had been the one year anniversary of her only daughter dying in a car accident. How what she needed now, when she felt most alone in the world, was a hug. I got down on one knee, we put our arms around each other and when we parted, she was smiling.

Everyone has problems and for sure mine haven't compared. But to see someone who was once frowning, smile even for a moment, is worth it every time.

Why Did it get banned?

Public liability fear and red tape. But its all okay now! Make sure tocheck your local laws before embarking on your Hugathon!

Special Thanks

I would just like to thank Sick Puppies for their incredible song "All the Same " which the free hugs campaign video would have never been the same without.

For their music visit www.sickpuppies.net !"

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 from people seeking to participate in the Free Hugs Campaign and asking for permission. You don't need permission. This is the people's movement, this is *your* movement. With nothing but your bare hands you CAN make a difference. (OVER 40,000,000 VIEWS IN YOUTUBE if we accept its counting system)

  • @Spiritflier07 as crazy as we let it be.. act now.. gather up and remove the principal or whoever passed that prohibition.. i wouldn't leave my child exposed to that kind of enviroment..

  • @5haman yep....hugging is wrong according to the new world we live in...yet you can find kids grinding on each other at school dances... everything is inside out...hugging is bad; grinding is good....crazy world.

  • @Spiritflier07 "My daughter's school banned hugging on school grounds...." !!!!!!?!!!!!!

  • fucken hell i would under stand if it was cosplayers or frees hugging one other but not thing way but hugs are free so they don't have a right to band it.But if the person making problems an some a bunch of people say its a bad thing then they can jump in.

  • @ProfHinsley1 you need a hug

  • made me cry

  • that was a beautiful thing!

  • So, not to put a damper on things, but in the intro when it says all you had was a carry-on full of clothes and a world full of troubles or whatever, did you also have a guy with a video camera in your carry-on to tape all of this? It seems just a little too commercial for that sappy story in the beginning.

  • Hug!
