Hugging competetion hyderabad manWe have seen several trolling gifs from YS Jagan Mohan Reddy’s Odarpu Yatra in which he is seen hugging people one after the other as they stand in line. But here is a man from Hyderabad, Krishan Kumar who created a Guiness World record by hugging a total of 79 people in just 60 seconds.

This feat on March 5th earned him a place in the history. The video is showing him quickly giving hugs to individuals – both children and adults – who are waiting in line for their turn, just like in those Odarpu Yatra days of Jagan before 2014 elections. In the video, we even find a man who makes sure that the volunteers move smoothly as they queue for a quick embrace.

Helping the man create the record are three others. Two of them are keeping track of the time using stopwatches and another man who is not seen in the video but can be heard in the background counting the number of people receiving the hugs.
