Today has got to be record day, because these oddities are breaking all sorts of records.
No, it's not an illusion, nor is this image photo-shopped, but this 2-feet 9-inches tall man, Aditya "Romeo" Dev, is "the world's smallest bodybuilder." The 19-year-old lives in Punjab and was recently honored by the Guinness Book of Records in 2006.
As reported by The Telegraph (portion of photo by Barcroft Media):
While most dwarfs have large heads compared to their bodies, Romeo is perfectly proportioned, and despite his diminutive stature has triceps, biceps, calves and thighs that would make many a full-grown man blush...Click here for the full story and many more images.
"I've been training as a bodybuilder for the last two years and by now I think I must be the strongest dwarf in the world," said Romeo.
Romeo is famous in his home country, and his father has spoken of his pride in his son's determination to overcome any difficulties in his path. "He has never been bothered at being so small. He has no inferiority complex. He is the jewel of our family."
