A 10-year-old boy amazed pedestrians near Nanjing Railway Station last Wednesday by being able to lift a 40-kilogram steel ingot over his head on one attempt.

During the performance, the boy, surnamed Wu, lowered his waist, took a deep breath and lifted a pair of steel plates up to his head with ease. Wu's father said he started training his son on weight lifting since he was 3. When Wu was 5, he was able to lift things weighing more than 25 kilograms.
