“I am Muslim, not the same as a terrorist. Do you trust me? I trust you!” read a sign, placed in front of a bearded man standing in the streets of Stockholm.
The trust experiment, which was earlier conducted in Toronto and New York, was put to test this time by YouTube user STHLM Panda in Stockholm.
In the uploaded on YouTube by STHLM Panda, shows a man standing in the streets of Stockholm, with his arms spread outward.At first, the guy, who was identified as Ashkan, did not attract much attention.
Then the magic started and hugs started coming as people watched.
A woman walked up to him and said “Of course, I trust you.”
He got 147 hugs by people of all ethnic backgrounds.
