What were you doing when you were 5? I, for one, was living my best life with parents taking care of all my needs and wants.
And so, it is shocking (and slightly unsettling) to see 5-year-old Arat Hosseini from Iran playing football, climbing ropes and building muscles.
Some say he is the ‘strongest kid in the world’ and we can see why.
According to reports, his father started making him workout at the age of 2 (I’d ask what you were doing at 2 but it’s unlikely anyone of us remembers).
Since then, there has been no looking back for Arat, who has now become an internet sensation with over 2 million followers on Instagram.
Among other things, what has caught people’s eyes are his football skills.
There are multiple videos of him, dribbling past his fellow young opponents making it look like an unfair game to be honest.
Recently, one such video was posted by Indian businessman Anand Mahindra who initially thought him to be a girl.
When I first saw this in my #whatsappwonderbox I thought it was a little girl & was amazed. Then trawled the net & it seems it’s really a 4 yr old Iranian boy! I’m still impressed by the way! Enjoy… pic.twitter.com/pqfPMhMRoR
