  9. I've seen (and hugged) people in Shibuya in Tokyo who had Free Hugs signs. Shibuya is the site of the busiest road crossing in the world (am sure you've all seen pictures).

    I never knew it got started by someone in Oz. Thanks for the post Bobby :)

  18. WOW this is such a moving video its amazing.

    more people should really do this, if they did maybe there wouldn't be so much negativity between people.

    personally im a goth and everyday i will leave the house to find that im getting can's thrown at me and names shouted at me, it isn't a nice feeling at all, but maybe if more people did this and broke down the walls between ages, beliefs, fashion, color and race maybe there wouldn't be the world would be a better place to live.

    years ago me and my friend did something similar to this video, we went around our local town and if there was anyone around that looked like they where feeling down and needed someone to talk to we would and then give them a BIG hug at the end, or if they didn't want to talk we would just give them a big hug.

    anyway thanks Bobby for sharing this video with us all, and people please find it in yourselves to do something like his where you live as you have no idea how much of a change it will make.
