Really cool video on utube - free hugs

This video is really cool. It is a true story about a guy who gave out free hugs in the mall in Sydney, Australia, then his hugs were banned and he circulated a petition and the council allowed him to give out free hugs again. It's a really cool video. It was put up at the end of September and it has had 5 million views now and the hugger was flown to America and interviewed by Oprah. It's worth a watch. Music is cool too. Check it out. free hugs vid

I predict he will one day hug the wrong person and be beaten to death with a blunt object.
If he just kept his hands to him self like Mrs Butts his kindergarten teacher had always told him

the 2 asshole posts before Indigo should take the advice... if you havent anything nice to post , dont post at all. ( or at least constructive.)
this little video has best intentions in mind, and it was one of the only things that brought me some solace when i lost my mother , remembering that people can actually be " good " and that human nature isnt automatically one of a vile nature.

Im not flaming, but I believe that I have the right to express my opinion that that video is not really cool, but in fact cringeworthingly not cool. And even a little bit silly.

i think that if some loser has noting better to do than be a hippy and hug people, he should be drafted to whip his pussy ass into shape.

In 4 years we'll see a news posting of that guy arrested for some sort of public indecency, a large huggie porn collection and some serious stalking and harrassment suit by the thousands of women he hug molested.

I like the verse in the song that says
"I don't care, no I wouldn't dare to fix the twist in you. You've shown me eventually what you'll do. I don't mind, I don't care, as long as you're here"
That's beautiful.

I liked this video. It gave me the warm fuzzies, and I'm the most bitter fuck in the world. It made me wonder about what it means to be human... like, what is it with hugs, ya know what I'm saying?
