"Everybody needs a hug. It changes your metabolism."

—Leo Buscaglia

World Hug Record on Train Station

British rail passengers are renowned for their indifference towards fellow commuters. But that didn't stop 112 people, many of them total strangers, to set aside their usual cultural reserve towards fellow passengers at St Pancras station in central London as they set the Guinness Book of World Records record for the most people hugging for 60 seconds.

BE THE CHANGE

Hug as many people as you can today. Chances are pretty good you'll get lots of hugs in return!
