Bizarre footage has captured the moment two Santas began a dramatic brawl in a Russian shopping mall as horrified children watched on.

In the clip, one of the pair shouts 'This is my territory' before the two men begin fighting on the floor of a food court inside the mall in Blagoveshchensk, Russia.

Children sat on red and green chairs to the side of the brawl watch in shock as the costumed men roll on the floor in the bitter punch-up.

Near our home town we would always go see the same Santa at the mall - every year.

One year we stopped in at Wall Drug during the summer. Watched a short show with some “Cowboys”. Our son said something like “That’s not a cowboy - that’s Santa!”

So I’m taking the kids through the food line, and my wife goes back to the cowboy - (”You know - he DOES look like Santa!”) Turns out it WAS the same guy - 1200 miles away!

I can’t recall what we told our son. Yes - we were the terrible parents that lied to our kids about Santa - even when they were probably older to know better.

I remember one Christmas when one of our daughters “accused” us of being Santa.

“What!? You really think me and mom would buy all of this stuff for you!!??”

“Oh. You’re right! I KNEW those kids at school were wrong!!”

I was also the first to jump in when anybody spilled anything on the carpet to clean it up. I wouldn’t get mad - accidents happen. But I was always on top of it to clean it up. “Okay - you can’t just lay a wet towel on it - you have to get some rug cleaner and scrub it and then the wet towel ....oh here - let me do it!”

So me spilling some eggnog, cookie crumbs and soot from the fire place onto the carpet kept it going for awhile too. “Okay kids, why don’t you help mom with breakfast while I clean up this mess that Santa left. I can’t believe how messy he is!! You’d think coming into somebody’s house he would be more careful....”

I think it was Christmas when I was in 2nd grade that I analyzed the handwriting and determined Santa and Mom were the same person.

Mom said, 'don't tell your little sister."

Years ago, I went with a cousin to his daughter's place for Thanksgiving. The son-in-law came in dressed as Santa and gave out presents, then left. Later he came back in regular clothes and his kids told him, "Daddy! You should have been here! Santa was here!"

Since this story is from Russia, wouldn't these characters be Grandpa Frost?

I’m thinking vodka was involved.

The real Santa was at Hudsons dept. store in Detroit. All the others were his helpers we were told as kids.

That image was created before my time, but was still popular when I was a child. It brings back fond memories of a time when America still had a moral compass, as well as adherence to a rule of law.

What have we done?

That’s funny. Pulled the guy’s pants off! I bet there’s a more secure top on that cage by tomorrow.
