David "Big Dave" Sylvester photographed at Rittenhouse Squarein Philadelphia, PA USA for The Guardian "Experience" feature.David Sylvester in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where he lives.
David realised some people were hesitant about hugging him when they didn’t know the first thing about him.
It’s rarely just a hug; it’s conversations, moments, confessions. When you’re willing to embrace a stranger, people open up.
People tend to be cautious at first. They hover, watching for a gimmick, until someone grabs a hug.
David carry a clicker to count the number of people he's hugged – his record is 1,300 in a day.
When Covid-19 hit, the hugs stopped.
With hugs still forbidden, in 2021 he drove across 48 states doing good deeds.
