A festive firefighter made headlines recently by abseiling down a bridge in Guatemala City, spreading joy and delivering gifts to local children. Hector Chacon, a dedicated municipal firefighter, clad in a full Santa Claus costume, gracefully descended 70 meters to meet the excited children waiting eagerly below.
At 78 years young, Chacon has been performing this heartwarming tradition for 27 years, aiming to bring holiday cheer to children from low-income families. “I believe all children deserve to have a toy for this time of the year,” he shared, embodying the spirit of giving during the holiday season. This annual event not only highlights the generosity of individuals but also fosters a sense of community during the festive time.
