Pint-sized Romeo is well-known in his hometown of Phagwara, India – for his ability to lift 1.5kg dumbbells – despite his overall 9kg body weight.

Every day, crowds flock to the local gym to the see the mini-muscleman in training.

Unlike many dwarfs, Romeo is well proportioned, with a head circumference of 15in and a chest measurement of 20in.

    When I my daughter outgrew that tank top and those shorts and I dropped them in the Gaia Project clothes depository box I never dreamed they’d get sent to India!

    Oh come on, I’m talking about the guy on the right! Jeez.

    Although i´ve seen a guy as small as this fella over here in Brazil, who used to be a cover singer for a crappy singer, until he died, some of the pictures make me strongly believe that is a photoshop job by an indian guy with too much time to spare…

    Good for him, but lets get real, any normal sized 6 year old (boy or girl) would rip him in half.

    Yup. I’m thinking that it’s a photochop job. If it is real, I wonder if he is afraid of dogs.
