World's strongest boy, 5, breaks world record for air press-ups

Feb 27th, 2010, 11:19 am

Guiliano Stroe is a five-year-old boy with a six-pack that would be the envy of most grown men, and now he has set his second world record in a matter of months.Guiliano, dubbed the world’s strongest boy, has set his second world record in a year, smashing the record for air press-ups.

Little Guiliano astounded onlookers when he performed 20 of the tricky press-ups – where you push your body into a handstand without your feet touching the floor –beating the previous world best of 12.

Last year, Romanian Guiliano was entered into the Guinness Book of Records after completing the fastest ten-metre handstand walk. Which he did with a weight between his legs!
Guiliano’s Father Iulian Sproe, 33, himself a former gymnast, said: “I took him with me to training at the gym ever since he was born. But he’s still only a child and if he gets tired or bored we go and play.”
