Santa Claus has been paid compensation after fighter jets scared his reindeer to death.
The Danish Air Force has paid £2,854 in compensation to part-time Santa Olavi Nikkanoff.
His reindeer died of heart failure when two fighter jets roared over his farm.
Rudolf has been grazing peacefully at the farm in central Denmark when jets screamed over at low altitude in February.
The reindeer collapsed and died.
His death meant Nikkanoff had only one reindeer left to pull his sleigh at Christmas.
He complained to the air force which agreed to pay for a new reindeer and cover his vet's bill.
"We're more than happy to pay if it means that children around the world will get their presents," said air force spokesman Captain Morten Jensen.
