Super strong mutant baby (Real Story)

There's nothing special about him -- unless you count the genetic mutation that gives him muscles twice the size of other five-year-olds.

That's REAL LIFE. I'm talking PALLADIUM. Confuse the two at your own peril :)

Arnold Schwarzenegger had 21 inch biceps by the age of 16.. was he a freak?
Yes, yes he was..
However, just because a kid has a rather prominant genetic quirk does not make him a freak of nature.. we all have genetic differences, they are fairly random, some are beneficial, some are not so great.. most of the time, the differences that are not so great are the ones that are noticed, while other people go their entire lives not thinking twice about stuff like..
"Hmm, nobody in my mothers side of the family ever died of any type of cancer".. or.."You know what, everyone I know has broken at least one bone.. I never have.. even that time I sprained both my ankles, or that time I fell backward off the top of that wall and landed with the branch under me, across my back.. that should have broken something".

When both parents require reading glasses by the age of thirty and one of their kids has 20/20 vision their entire life?
When one small village manages to survive the Black Plague just from a quirk of fate and a lack of receptor sites on cell walls?

While the muscle baby is fine now, when they get older, they will face a whole heap of social pressures, judgements and unwanted attention.. I am glad I'm not muscle baby, because that kid is not in for a very happy life, thanks to the rest of us.

*waits for this one to turn into an argument about diets*
There you go man, keep as cool as you can.
Face piles of trials with smiles. It riles
them to believe that you perceive the web they weave
and keep on thinking free.
