Boy, 5, does 3,600 push-ups ( 2003-10-09 13:26) (China Daily)
A five-year-old boy easily did 3,600 push-ups in 20 minutes, Nanjing Morning
Post reports.
Shi Hengcheng, a monk from Shaolin Temple in Central China's Henan Province,
also held 25-kilogram barbells for two minutes after finishing the push-ups, the
report says.
The boy aims to break the Guiness World Record - which is 10,000 push-ups in
six hours for adults; and the same number in seven hours for youths.
Shi was sent to Shaolin Temple to build his body when he was two years old
because he had been ill since he was born. There he got extensive physical
training.
