When it comes to Christmas Trees, Steven Newland, from New Zealand, takes the cake!

The creative Christmas Tree decorator is a pilot who puts tremendous effort into the festive tradition every year.

Starting off the tradition in 2005 with a "Christmas Rock," the family has certainly developed their Christmas Tree design over time.

And in 2017, things started to get really interesting...
