Hugs, Handshakes and Fist Bumps: The Responses From Homeless After Receiving $100 Will Brighten Your Day

There are different styles of giving back to the community and those in need. Some take a more direct approach, giving money or items directly to the homeless.

And while it's not the first time we've seen a video showing the reactions of the needy receiving $100 from a stranger, a similar short film from a new YouTube channel, as one commenter put it, shares "how good it feels ... to help somebody out."

The video by Utah-based GivingBack Films shows a team going up to those in need and handing them a $100 bill -- no questions asked.

The responses range from prayers of thanks to handshakes, hugs or fist bumps -- or a combination -- all of which come with an extreme sense of gratitude. There were also a lot of "God bless you's" issued.

One recipient who had lost his job said he had a "string of bad luck, but this is definitely going to help us out."

GiveBack Films creators stated that they "have been fortunate enough to be in a better position than a lot of people in the world. For that reason, we want to give back, and that is what our channel is all about." The channel plans to release a new film every Monday.
