Don't make him angry, you wouldn't like him when he's angry.

Not yet 5, he can hold seven-pound weights with arms extended

Last time my 3-year-old grandson came to visit, he picked up a pair of 8-lb dumbbells and ran around with them. He almost threw one through a window.

Somewhere in Germany is a baby Superman, born in Berlin with bulging arm and leg muscles.

Is his name Hanz or Franz?

LOL, you should write to Dr. Schuelke. Maybe the good doctor could publish another paper based on the little guy.

7 pound weights maybe some adults can't hold them arms extended, but most can unless they have a broken arm. I wonder if this isn't a genetic throwback.

The boy is healthy now, but doctors worry he could eventually suffer heart or other health problems.

Ahhh, yes. The downside. Anybody who doesn't believe that this is an issue should look at the life expectancies of animals that are bred to be big and strong -- they're typically much shorter than other pure-bred breeds.

This sort of discovery is interesting, but I think the potential for serious problems is probably pretty high.
