In Texas a man dressed up as Santa Claus got stuck while rappelling down a billboard, proving only the real Santa should try anything that crazy.

Professional rock climber James Bossum was supposed to rappel down an 80-foot sign, but about halfway down, his long beard got stuck in the rigging.

Firefighters were able to get Bossum down by using a ladder.

Despite the ordeal, Bossum said he enjoyed himself and would probably do it again.

That is too funny. I got my REAL beard caught in a figure eight last summer It ripped about 3 inches off one side. Painful and scary But all turned out OK Next time I will put a rubber band around it

OOPS
Double post.

The irony is I am so careful when it comes to safety, then I go and mess up on my self.
