Watch: What happens when Santa Claus settles 'naughty or nice' debate with lie detector

We have all been told all our lives that Santa Claus favours nice children over the naughty once. And many of us, during our childhood, have been extra nice just around Christmas time so that we were not left out Santa’s list of good children. But those were the old days.

What emerged was a clear pattern when asked about the gifts they want, all the kids scored ten on ten. But the lies came tumbling out when they were asked if they were nice or naughty. Some of the kids, however, were brave enough to be truthful throughout — they said Santa was more important than Jesus, they were not nice to their siblings sometimes, they may have pushed a classmate or two down the stairs during the year, and even lied to their parents. But Santa being Santa gave all the kids the benefit of doubt and presented them with a candy cane each at the end of it all. Watch this fun video here:
