This 2ft 9in Indian would kick your ass if he could reach it

Jebediah Springfield, the founder of The Simpsons’ home town, famously declared that ‘a noble spirit embiggens the smallest man’ (and yes, ‘embiggens’ is a perfectly cromulent word). The living embodiment of this sentiment can be found in the world’s smallest bodybuilder, Aditya ‘Romeo’ Dev.

According to the fine journalists at The Daily Mail, crowds flock to see Romeo blast his guns on a daily basis in his hometown of Phagwara, India, and he regularly lifts 1.5kg dumbbells, despite only weighing in at 9.05kg himself.
