the period of the festivals of end of the year is sometimes stressing, especially for the Father Christmas who must move with his reindeers at a speed of 5.800 km a second bringing in time time his gifts to the children of the whole world, according to a very serious Swedish study.

Between the 24 and on December 25, the Father Christmas must make 2,5 billion stops, if one leaves the principle that the children of all the religions will receive one present, explained to AFP Anders Larsson, of the company of consultants in Sweco engineering. “We estimated that there are 48 inhabitants per square kilometre on planet and that 20 meters separate each residence. Thus if the Father Christmas leaves Kirghizstan and voyage in the opposite direction rotation the ground, it has 48 hours to deposit all his gifts ".

If the tradition wants that the Father Christmas resides at the North Pole, several Scandinavian cities dispute the title of official place of residence of this last, among which Rovaniemi, in Finland. But according to the study carried out by Sweco, it is while being based in Kirghizstan, in Central Asia, that the Father Christmas would carry out all his displacements in an optimal way and would waste less time to move. “It has 34 microseconds for each stop”, i.e. to slip by the chimney, to deposit its packages and to set out again also quickly on its sledge.

According to another study circulating on the Internet, the attachment of the Father Christmas, in charge of tons of gifts and travelling at a supersonic speed, would be condemned to leave in flames and to disintegrate in 4,26 thousandth seconds, because of the resistance of the air.
