AT just 2ft 9in, Indian muscleman Aditya 'Romeo' Dev is the world's smallest bodybuilder, reports the Daily Mail.

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.


I can't work out if this is the real deal or a hoax?

Don't think it's been doctored, supposedly has an entry in the Guiness Records:

Aditya Romeo Dev has been declared the smallest bodybuilder on the planet by the Guinness Book of World Records. He has custom-built dumbbells that combined, are 1/3 his body weight.

Fast Facts:


Age; 19
Resides: Phagwara, India
Height: 2 feet, 9 inches
Weight: Less than 20 pounds
Dumbbells: 3.3 pounds
Head circumference: 15 inches
Chest: 20 inches
Biceps: 6.5 inches
Thighs: 8 inches

I couldn't find him on the Guiness website, and I don't have a recent book
