I love this video, and I love even more that Matt is a Seattleite
I think it started as a little home video and then Stride paid him to go around the world and dance with people. It's pretty much one of the best things a person can be paid to do, I think.
I cry a little more each time I see it.

I like the free hugs thing a bit better. Call me an old softy. But
here's a recent add to them all. And check out some of their other missions. I killed myself laughing at some of them yesterday, such as the Food Court Musical, Rob!, Best Game Ever, and Even Better Than The Real Thing. These folks kill me.

I LOVE Improv Everywhere! The food court musical is a good one, I really like the one where they stop moving in Union Station for five minutes.

My friend told me that he had recently observed someone dressed as a zombie holding a "free hugs" sign. Wonder how many people took the offer?

Happiness is frequently contagious -- few people are able to watch the above video without smiling.
I've watched it a couple of times now, and I guess I just don't see what the fuss is about. I'm not smiling. Place me in the list of the 'few people who are able to watch it without smiling' list, guys.
Okay, guy travels overseas, dances with some locals. Comes back home and edits it with some emotive music . . . .
Right . . .

Actually, if you
knew me, and some watchers have met me, I'm a really relaxed and friendly guy. But as I said, I just didn't smile when I saw Matt dancing all over the world. To me, it's a bit contrived, something you'd see in a new age store, and it makes me cringe.
