00:00Oh, I find it is too right.

00:03There's always kids that, you know, they want to prove that you're not real.

00:08Well, pull the beard and see.

00:18I'm Santa Ron Robertson.

00:20I am the president of Forbes, the Fraternal Order of Real Bearded Santas.

00:24Welcome, and thank you for joining us for the 18th Annual Santa Reunion.

00:30Our reunion, I think, is really important because they've just gotten through with their

00:36busy season, with all their responsibilities, so it's a chance to get together, let off a

00:41little steam, relax, and have some fun.

00:45Does this swimsuit make me look fat?

00:50There we go.

00:50One, two, three.

00:51What I do is a passion.

00:54My actual dream is to become the first African-American Santa on the Coca-Cola commercials, billboards,

01:01the Coca-Cola Santa, just to say that we are up there as well.

01:05The money that I've spent in building the sleigh, I've told her several times that I probably

01:17have a whole $40,000, $45,000 in it, when actually it's probably twice that.

01:22There has to be at least $100,000 in the sleigh.

01:25I've started eating proper and exercising a lot, and I've dropped a total now at about

01:35135, 140 pounds.

01:37The idea that we should be 350-pound obese monsters, it just isn't good for our health.

01:44I have people come up to me all the time, and they'll say, that's not, oh my God, that

01:50is real.

01:51We bury several of those Santas every year.

01:55Here you go, what can you see in this school?

01:57It is like the harbor of Santa schools.

02:07Now Santas are more demanding, they want to look different, they want to look better.

02:11It's like a competition between the Santas, who's going to look the best.

02:26I really do believe in Santa Claus.

02:28The true believers, it doesn't matter how old they are, they still believe.

02:32Of course I believe in Santa Claus.

02:34I am Santa Claus.

02:36Do I believe in Santa Claus?

02:37Every day.

02:38Every day I look in the mirror.

02:39I believe in Santa Claus.
