51-year-old Jeff Ondash from Ohio just spread a lot of love. Standing on the Las Vegas strip for 24 hours, he broke the world record for most hugs in one day. Using the name “Teddy McHuggin” for the day, Ondash ended up giving 7,777 hugs. But the experiment had a serious side to it: McHuggin’s other goal was to raise money for the American Heart Association.
