How do you make history? By taking a page from Gandhi’s book and hugging it out, of course! At least, that was Nick Cannon’s motive. The rapper/actor/AMERICA’S GOT TALENT host attempted to break the Guinness Book of World Record for the most hugs given in an hour.

Cannon stood outside of the New York Mets’ CitiField for an hour with hopes of hugging more than 1,749 people and thus, breaking the current record held by Nick Vujicic, who’s held the record for a year now. Unfortunately, Cannon’s efforts were unsuccessful, as he missed breaking the record by 52 people. Congrats, Vujicic, you’re still undefeated!

Regardless of the title, there was a good cause behind it. For every hug dispersed, a toy was donated to a child at the Mets Care Room in the New York Hospital of Queens, so record or not, someone went home happy!
