Santa rappels down to deliver gifts to Guatemalan children

77-year-old firefighter Hector Chacon played the role of Santa Claus in the La Paz suburb of Guatemala City. He has been handing out presents to local children for 26 years now, and shows no signs of slowing down.

"It's a great emotion that's difficult to share, but it's a joy, completely," he said.

Presents that were handed to the children came from a donation drive at fire stations in the country.
