Chances are you've got some free time at the moment over the university holidays. And what is the best way to spend spare time? By watching YouTube videos of course. Here we've gathered together some of the very best Christmassy videos the internet has to offer. Sit back and enjoy.

 

A Very Modern Nativity

Ever wondered how the Nativity story would play out in today's world of social media, mobile phones, emails and Amazon? Well wonder no more, as the charming video below shows you just that.

 

Brighton Christmas Lights

When a video of a seaside town’s Christmas lights goes viral, you know there’s something up. That’s exactly what happened last week when Brighton’s decorations became an internet hit for all the wrong reasons. I don’t want to say too much but, the person decorating Brighton clearly had a grudge.

(Unfortunately this turned out to be a hoax by comedy website The Poke, but still very funny.)

 

Beer Bottle Tree

Some clever drunk people have managed to merge two of Christmas's biggest traditions- alcohol and the tree. Below you can watch how they created a two metre high Christmas tree out of 1050 bottles of beer. It may not be traditional, but the end product certainly looks festive.

 

Carol Singing Flashmob

Flashmobs are a staple of YouTube so it comes as no surprise that this Christmassy version has had nearly 40million views. In the middle of a US shopping mall dozens of people suddenly all start singing. If this video doesn't bring you some festive cheer, then nothing will.

 

The Best Christmas Lights in the World

Some people make a real effort when it comes to decorating their houses at Christmas. Admittedly though, the families in this video have probably gone a little too over the top. With thousands of lights choreographed with Christmas music, these four different homes are the undisputed kings of the Christmas light show.
