#XMAS JAMMIES - Merry Christmas from the Holderness Family goes viral!

Set to the beat of Will Smiths 'Miami' this Christmas video by the Holderness family has erupted in the last week and has become a Youtube sensation. Posted on the 11th of December it's already been viewed over 12,000,000 times and is only accelerating.

Set to the beat of Will Smiths ’Miami’ this Christmas video by the Holderness family has erupted in the last week and has become a Youtube sensation. Posted on the 11th of December it’s already been viewed over 12,000,000 times and is only accelerating.

For what reason has it gone viral? do people really find it hilariously funny? or so sickening that they had to share it with others?

This is the response from the Metro newspaper in the UK to the families antics "At first glance it’s a cute home video, but within moments you realise the horror of what it would be like to spend Christmas with the Holderness family".
