VIDEO: Man dressed as Santa Claus rescued after getting beard stuck while abseiling into shopping mall
Children at a shopping centre in Reading saw Santa Claus make an unusual entrance after his beard got stuck in the rope he was abseiling down.
Steve Chessell - from 11th Battalion Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers - spent 40 minutes suspended 15ft in the air before being rescued by his colleague Marc Hilton, as hundreds at Broad Street Mall looked on.
The 32-year-old arrived to cheers but laughter broke out when it emerged he had become stuck.
‘Say “hello Santa!”. Ho, ho, ho hello Santa,’ the shopping centre’s announcer had said. ‘He always likes to make an entrance. He’s used to coming down chimneys, but we’ve never seen this before.’ Click below for full story -
