According to Ryan Fitzgerald's YouTube video, all he wanted to do when he gave out his cellphone number was be a good listener to anyone who needed to talk. Since his Friday message of, "I never met you, but I do care," he has received over 5,000 calls. T-Mobile, Fitzgerald's cellphone provider, has advised him that he is no longer eligible for weekend minutes. Fitzgerald's inspiration was Juan Mann's "Free Hugs," video on YouTube, which showed a man hugging strangers. He stated that the video of Luke Johnson, who posted his phone number on YouTube in September and has since received over 138 thousand calls, is very different from his video, which relates to human interaction.
