A firefighter dressed as Santa Claus rappelled down a bridge to give presents to children in Guatemala City.
City firefighter Hector Chacon donned the red robe and beard and, with the help of his colleagues, descended 70 meters to greet dozens of children waiting for him below.
Mr. Chacon, 78, has been doing this for 27 years and says the mission is to bring festive joy to children from low-income families.
“I believe all children deserve to have a toy for this time of year,” he said.
