A muscle-bound five-year-old has become an internet sensation because of his incredible feats of strength.

Giuliano Stroe, from Romania, performs grueling stunts such as walking on his hands with a medicine ball between his legs on YouTube.

He earned a place in the Guinness Book of Records earlier this year when an Italian TV audience saw him perform the routine over 30 meters at top speed.

He also does impressive cartwheels and back flips off a table top, and a dazzling gymnastics routine on a horizontal bar.

The cartoon-loving Romanian youngster, who lives in Italy with his parents, has been trained from a baby, reports The Sun.

Dad Iulian, 33, said: "He has been going to the gym since he was born. I have trained hard all my life and always take him with me.

"But he is never allowed to practice on his own. He is only a child and if he gets tired we go and play."
