Five-year-old Romanian weightlifter

Giuliano Stroe has six-pack abs before turning six years old. And he's also in the Guinness Book of World Records before he can probably even read it.

Though it's highly unusual (and possibly unhealthy) for a child to start weight training at such a young age, the pre-schooler entered the record books earlier this year after completing the fastest ever 10-meter walk with a weight ball between the legs, which is both both highly impressive and highly specific. Since then, a four-minute video of Stroe has hit the Internet and made him a viral sensation.

It looks like a training montage from a Rocky movie, minus the Survivor soundtrack. (And, interestingly, Guiliano Stroe is almost the same size as Sylvester Stallone.)

This really angers me..

The extent some parents go to for a little publicity, fame or money. Their priority should be the well being of the child.

The little Rambo may be happy now, because he thinks his parents are so pleased with him. But later on, he will regret losing out on the simple pleasures of his childhood.

neyo.. i think that's the point he is a kid ..he needs supervision and guidance from his parents. yes he is happy now because maybe he thought this is good and he is famous but what will happen to him after..how about his health.

i hope he's parent will realize this before it will be too late.

This is so dumb. Why would any parent want their 5 yr old kid to look like that? And yes its going to effect his growth and his height.

"Qatari", be given a passport and a new Arabic name (Abdullah Saleh Saif or the like), and in a few more years he'll be representing this tiny Gulf nation in Olympic weightlifting competitions!

Oh wait. Deja vu. My bad. They already did that with the guys from Bulgaria.

I think it's not really child abuse coz the kid loves what he is doing, just like some of us who loves tumbling when we were kids except that there's somebody like his father who motivates him, but the problem really is his growth.

By abynel• 28 Oct 2009 09:23

this is child abuse....right???....well in my own opinion it is....the kid should be playing with toys for kids not with body building stuff.

well ikei, i think his muscles are too firm already and it's going to be hard for the muscles to expand during his growing period. A person should at least reach puberty before engaging into body building. my own opinion only...
