9 times Christmas lights went very, very wrong (HILARIOUS VIDEO-PHOTOS)

One of the best things about Christmas is the decorating that goes into it.

Whether at home or out on the street, the bright lights are guaranteed to brighten even the most gloomy of settings.

Whether you want to turn your house into an explosion of light and colour or just want to add a bit of brightness to the neighbourhood, festive lights are a surefire way to get in the mood for Christmas.
