Well, it started off as kind of silly (and not very good). You see, the elves bet Santa that he couldn't fit down a chimney. Santa took the bet; the elves laughed because, well, Santa's pretty big around the belly. But the elves forgot to say "you can't use magic". So Santa could go down the chimneys using his magic from stardust and moonbeams... But for everyone else, it's not safe to go down a chimney. People cannot fit and get stuck in there...then the fire department has to come and rescue them.

TaigaThe tradition of Santa climbing down chimneys is believed to have originated from various European winter solstice customs and folklore. It was popularized in 1823 by the poem "A Visit from St. Nicholas" (commonly known as "Twas the Night Before Christmas"), where Santa is described as coming down the chimney to deliver gifts to children.
