Remember the Free Hugs Campaign? I posted an article about it on the AFP website last year when this video, viewed more than 19 million times, first hit YouTube. Since then, Juan Mann (not his real name) and his campaign to bring hugs to everyone has spread around the globe, with “hug” videos from several other countries now on YouTube.
So I thought it would be fun, a year later, to revisit the video that helped kick-start the movement. Give it a watch. It’s entertaining and, in a strange way, inspiring. I suspect John Lennon fans, especially, will enjoy it. The music is by Sick Puppies.
I guess it proves what just “Juan Mann” can accomplish if he markets his message effectively.
