Children

[sonnchenundhomie]

It's only a little boy, who loves sports and has an amazing talent ... okay the father isn't okay. He put Richard on a strict diet.

[RonalGinho1990]

sò carini...sò  :'-(

[TSavage1953]

The kid is clearly on roids. The parent should be locked up for child abuse.

[ZZSFAN]

1:55 You think ur cool, or shit? FUCK OFF, SHITHEAD.

[thegentelman37]

thats abusing lol

[medvaput]

Fuuuuuuuuuu

[IndoJaps]

thats the real spartan kid!!!

[Teter21]

dude if this kid cut his hair just right and bleached it blond he would look like super sayajin 2 Gohan

[AleksSaf]

УЖАС!

[maqitos]

ITS A BOY ?????'

[plumeegaree]

OMG ! ses parents ne pensent donc pas à sa croissance ? Des os d'enfants ne sont pas faits pour supporter tout ces exercices.

[AlessioZinfadel]

Non mi piacciono i bambini super muscolosi

[weatherboi]

If he cuts his hair, will he lose his strength?

[ZZSFAN]

@weatherboi LOL

[TheCcrizZ]

why does he have a pony tail?

[Quarter32]

[951pi1]

[tataratataratata]

povero bambino non crescerà di un centimetro,però potra vantarsi di avere un fisico pauroso e di aver fatto un record

[MegaPupsilein]

der ARME junge!!

[catycaty81]

[Lukeblueslover]

once grown up he might have serious problems...imbecile parents

[I3arjoX]

is she a gir?

[choelude]

@I3arjoX not really..

[tekelets]

whats his name?

[mastermickey27]

i look like this now but i train more than him and he is still getting stronger faster than me i train 3 hours every day and it is hard as hell and i can barely do 100 dips with 60 pounds damn this kid is one hell of a man dont mess with him

[nikosaspros]

Indeed I thought he was a girl. Should this be on account of excess testosterone aromatizing into estrogen? Yet as a professional I wonder whether soft children bones will benefit from accelerated calcification triggered by resisted exercises...

[aquilasicula]

Poor child! This is only violence against children.

[busterhound333]

that is just sick looking+the boy is just ugly

[TheApocalyptical1]

Richard Smalak has a channel (bodybyrichard) He seems quite angry, and gets into comment wars often. He didn't recieve steroids but precursers which metabolize into steroids. Russians are fixated on physical strength and how it may be enhanced via steroids during early development. In Russia, there are many kids just like this, perhaps in much worse condition. They're used as human test subjects for large scale KGB research, to create a sort of "super-soldier/worker."

very tragic indeed

[TheLara09]

omg i thought that was a girl :-O but their ugli no offence ta him or her

[bmwm5thebest]

stereoids

[shmoab]

I think I'm going to puke.

[MyMoonISHoney]

i think im gunna puke too D:

[Rikypanc87]

Ecco quando avere paura di un bambino. Certo che è brutto però (in viso).

Here's when to be afraid of a child. Sure is ugly though (in the face).

[flipessorry]

that's a chick...

[PenzanceGunner]

Wonder if he will have problems later on in life regarding wear and tear. The body can only do so much for so long.

[JamesTheEntertainer]

Hes hardly big any more hes the size of an average 17 year old

[kaanthekiller]

srry 0:45

[kaanthekiller]

0:46 or 0:47

[Murthahg]

i´m realy jealous of him

[saltfan2]

Hahaha! that cid is so fucking ugly!

[C0305743]

yes.....i agree

[Saufbold123]

Its sick thats all...

[GenrichVoldemar]

Взрослые развлекаются похоже. Интересно, что скажет им этот ребенок когда повзрослеет. Не совсем понятно чего хотят добиться.

[frank13b012k9]

haha this is awful, his face makes him look like a girl

[katzruler]

the kid will be healthier from the training, if his parents don't let over do it....besides ,he speaks better than Arnold did when he came to america

[tedchirvasiu]

sorry coz i say like this but THIS BOY'S LIFE IS FUCKED OFF

[insideofyouazer]

@tedchirvasiu I like the part that his parents are masters of martial arts this kid will beat everyone :D I hope he will use his power for good reasons ... but the part I dont like that he has susch a body totally agree with u

[3GO3US]

looks horrble, incredible what some parens do with their innocent childs...

[johnnysalsalsal]

girls should be able to do to.

[theduckreturnstokill]

Lolz he would  me up ^.^

[BeetWeen613]

wtf???

[bidderr000]

I'm sorry but his UGLY. IS HE A SHE OR WHAT.

[Igotopinions]

It amuses me that they need subtitles for when he speaks

[Igotopinions]

This is so unhealthy it's not even funny.

He will have arthritus when he hits 18.

[nashkarin]

there is  a reason why normally doctors tell u to wait til certain age to start weight lifting wtf?XD

[crapuzzii]

PAURA!!!!!! col cazzo che gli rubo le caramelle a questo.....

[architetto80]

Quando nuotavo all'età di 12/14 anni facevo agonismo e andavo in piscina 4 volte la settimana per circa 2 ore al giorno..poi un bel giorno propongono a me e agli altri di fare un po' di potenziamento muscolare nella palestra a fianco..Durò circa 2 settimane xkè, dopo aver sentito il parere di alcuni medici, la società nuoto ci informaò che a quell'età (fase dello sviluppo!) non era stata una grande pensata inquanto i muscoli ne avrebbero risentito! Quindi i tuoi genitori sono dei poverini

[bibbyshibby]

you don't train a friggen seven year old with weights are you friggen stupid his bones will be shattering when hes 20. i dont care how tone you are definition is mostly body fat at 7 HOW MUCH BODY FAT DO YOU HAVE?

[JohnnyCreampuff]

Quote: "his bones will be shattering when hes 20" WHERE do you get this nonsense??

[expostfactum]

There are dozens of little kids on youtube doing this. And there are thousands of self proclaimed "experts" both men and boys who think they know what they are talking about when they defend this crap. This kid is only about 5 feet tall now.

[JohnnyCreampuff]

So are YOU a self proclaimed "expert" qualified to debunk this kind of thing? With all due respect, when statistics show the number of children now days who are obese and diabetic due to a lack of exercise, I really think it is quite foolish to worry about the very few kids there are who are strong and tireless due to vigorous exercise. Vigorous exercise certainly never hurt little Johnny

Sheffield (Boy on Tarzan series) who is now in his mid-70s.

[expostfactum]

Once again...I have not claimed anything..I have only pointed out that there are many "experts" on youtube who claim this is all healthy. The only problem is that EVERY FUCKING MEDICAL TEXTBOOK ON CHILD DEVELOPEMENT clearly states that this type of heavy lifting is unhealthy in the NATURAL developement of a child. You should spend more time reading up on child developement and less time showing everyone what a dumbass you are on youtube. I only hope that you are sterile.

[JohnnyCreampuff]

I have talked to an Orthopedist who said that heavy lifting by children CAN affect their plates BUT he also conceded that sedentary children are MUCH worse off in the long run. So I'm just putting some perspective in the matter which obviously you don't understand. BTW, you're showing everybody on youtube what a dumbass you are by claiming the kid is totally fucked up when he is NOT! The kid is doing just fine today and what you are claiming is nothing short of slander!

[expostfactum]

Your not putting any perspective anywhere. Your talking out your ass and trying to save face in the process. Allowing your child to be a big fat assed blob of goo is abuse....period. Working your child like a dog to make them look like a full grown adult body builder is abuse....PERIOD!!! There is no lesser of two evils here...abuse is abuse. They are both unhealthy and cruel to inflict on a child. Difference is, one can be corrected the other is permanent.

[expostfactum]

So there is a huge population of overweight children...how does that justify what has happend to this boy or others like him? Statisics show that children these days have cavities too, by your logic we should make them drink floride by the gallons to strengthen their teeth...Oh wait, excessive amounts of floride is toxic and fatal...but thats ok.. at least their teeth will be strong (sounds really stupid doesn"t it?) One extreme doesnt justify going to the other.

[JohnnyCreampuff]

What an idiotic analogy! Let me put this in box car letters for you: THE KID IS DOING JUST FINE TODAY!! HE IS NOT FUCKED UP!  Yes, his father was an asshole but the kid overcame it all and he STILL works out! ANY reputable pediatrican will also tell you that kids now days need to exercise more. But idiots like you will cry ABUSE everytime they see a kid who is exceptionally strong and who exercises vigorously!

[expostfactum]

Children who play sports or bike ride or gymnastics...ect are vigorously exercising. Kids like this are being abused to satisfy some sick perversion of the very people who are supposed to be protecting them. Your a fool and i've grown tired of you. I only hope you have no access or dealings with any children anywhere, ever. Your stupidity, when it threatens you, is fine, when it is inflicted on innocents, that is a different story.

[JohnnyCreampuff]

All I've done was point out some basic facts to you that cannot be disputed. I've also tried to put things into their proper perspective without threatening ANYBODY. But instead, you just want to resort to name calling and slandering. Fine, believe what you want to believe because I've also become tired of you.

[Paravain]

He went lucky. He could as well develop physic or mental problems as he grows up, as well as he could have been shattered in both ways by his fathers methods.

Even if you point is valid that youth dont exercise enough, its a wrong attempt to put them into something they have to bear with. children have to enjoy the activity they do and they´ll do it enough to not get obsese or anything related to that.

Society has a much to firm grip on children today, with too much pressure on parents and kids

[showteklover]

holy fuck kill that shit

[ZyphonZest]

that nigga is badass

[Bucktooth001]

DBZ

[iowast1130]

[Francescafromitaly]

[Slay200]

wow that kid has some fucking gay pants

[qtq000]

idiots parents.

[tuvaletsifonu]

i guess they're raising an assassin

[yawalad]

his dad gave him roids and escaped to not go to jail. he is an adult now btw.

[JohnnyCreampuff]

No, not quite. I think he's 16. It has never been alledged that his dad gave him steroids although he MIGHT have. BTW, I think his dad DID go to jail.

[calvinGirl90]

ew. he dosn't knwo any better becaue his parents have drilled it into his head that training is what he loves.

[xXx13cornholio13xXx]

ah i think good hes in such shape i just pray hes alright wen he gets older and nothing decides to fail on him. im 14 yro and i cant even pick up 40lbs and im not fat either!! id kill to look like him

[ju5t07]

lol xD

[tititrance88]

Che cazzo di schifo!!!!! Però senza pugni che tirava......ce stil!!!

[frassicaz]

delinquents

[nez2008]

what does he eat? steroids? Lots of protein? This is not good in his age

[abodigibine69]

his dad gave him steroids

[JohnnyCreampuff]

That has been aledged and it might be true BUT it has NEVER been proven.

[Igotopinions]

Uh....It was all over the news when they found out he was given steroids. The mother testified and said it was true. She was in on it. The Child himself even gave supporting evidence saying that his dad slipped powder and such into his drinks. I think that the dad was even on the run when they found out that he gave the kid steroids. Hopefully you aren't one of the people who checked Wikipedia. It's a really unreliable article. He was 'Roided, just accept it.

[JohnnyCreampuff]

NO, it was NOT all over the news! And NO the mother did NOT testify that it was true! Neither did Richard give supporting evidence that his dad slipped him steroids! Perhaps it was the SPECULATION that was all over the news. In a most recent interview with Richard (now 16), he once again squelched the rumors that he was on steroids so I don't know where you're getting your information from. I would provide the link with the most recent interview but youtube will not allow me to post links.

[Igotopinions]

That's because you don't have a link. EVERY (and I mean every) YouTuber knows how to skip the no links rule. Even the SPAMMERS know. What are you, the child's father? Seriously, he took steroids.

[JohnnyCreampuff]

Igotopinions, no matter what I tell you, you will believe what you want to believe so my effort is probably futeless here anyway. But I'm telling you, there is an MSN video link to the most recent Sandrak interview showing that he is doing GREAT today at 16 and where he once again denied ever taking steroids. Pretty much contradicting what you said that HE said. BUT for some reason or another the link will NOT stick here. Perhaps I'm an ignorant youtuber cause I don't know how to post it.

[expostfactum]

He was just a kid...how the hell does he know what his father put in his food? Of course he is going to defend his family and himself. Didnt Barry Bonds also claim he didnt use them either? I guess we all know how that turned out. Also, you should go and do some research on what kind of a person his father was. It isnt good reading.

[JohnnyCreampuff]

Well, how the hell do YOU know what his father put in his food? I'm fully aware of the abuse his father bestowed on him. The guy was a chronic alcoholic who beat his wife and his kid. The nightmare didn't end until Richard called the police. The fact is, the kid was tested for steroids numerous and came up negative each time. Had the kid been on steroids like everybody here said he was, the kid would be dead by now. But Richard is very much alive and well today and doing just fine.

[expostfactum]

I never claimed to know what his father put into his food. Im only pointing out that young children probably wouldnt know if they were being drugged or not. Therefore, taking the word of a child on what they may or may not have been exposed to is not really that intelligent. Are you really that dense? The fact that you actually do know what an idiot his father was, can you really discount the possibility? This child is the victim here...Dont forget that.

[expostfactum]

The child's father is in jail for beating up his mother....hmmm doesnt that go hand in hand with roid rage. This kids life is totally fucked up. He and his mom had to go into hiding to get away from the retard father

[JohnnyCreampuff]

Where do you get off saying that Richard Sandrak's life "is totally fucked up"? Yes, his father abused him terribly when he was a little guy but the fact is, Richard courageously overcame all that AND his exercise ethic stuck with him. As he said in a most recent feature on MSN, "I motivate myself now". He now works out 90 minutes a day and is still an ambassador for child physical fitness and HIS GROWTH IS NOT STUNTED. He's STILL lean and muscular but no longer out of the extroidinary.

[expostfactum]

His growth is stunted. He is only 16, he has an entire lifetime of possible problems arising from his dipshit parent's abuse. Frankly I wouldnt want that hanging over my childs head for the rest his life. Admire him for what he has managed to overcome so far, but dont sit there like a dumbass claiming his "exercise routine" was anything but abuse. I hope the best for him, he certainly deserves it.

[JohnnyCreampuff]

WHERE in the hell do you get your information from? Point me to a CREDIBLE source that says his growth is stunted and that he has a lifetime of problems ahead of him. He certainly didn't look stunted to me in a most recent video I saw of him. In fact, he looked extremely healthy and fit. I'm not saying what he went through as a little kid was not abuse BUT as bad as it was, he overcame it all AND the exercise ethic stuck with him.  BTW, heavy lifting starting at age 20 can give you problems.

[JohnnyCreampuff]

The dad was arrested and jailed on DOMESTIC abuse charges.  There was NOTHING in the complaint about him giving his son steroids. A quote from Richard in a most recent interview: "People said I took steroids which is completely not true cause I've taken numorous tests and it all turned out negative". So when YOU say "The Child himself even gave supporting evidence..." I have no idea where you're getting this from because the quote I gave above definitely contradicts this statement.

[Global567]

i suck his dick

[wexLa]

it isnt good for him ... and he cant fight at all :P son of a bitch

[sladang]

DAD GAVE HIM STAROIDS!!!

[abodigibine69]

yeah he said he remembers his dad putting powder and stuff into his food and drinks

[cxcorporation]

he parents are assholes, ore thear muscels are nice. He is to young for bodybuilding !!!!

[dusmanlariminbasina]

but, doesn't lifting heavy weight prevents children to grow taller?

and why the long hair?

[scondore]

it doesnt stunt growth unless A: there is not enough protein in the diet, or B: you damage a growth plate or something along that line. other than that your fine

[Lehoanglong]

omg ... i want to be like him lolz !

[ErnestGaskin]

his parents, imigrants or not, are assholes.

this will make him quassimodo. youre not supposed to train until your bones are ready to it. noone could gues how bones will grow now.

maybe jackie chan and terminator are his idols, but when adult, he will be able to play just in another remake of rear window.

[ErnestGaskin]

watchin it for second time i see that his spin is already destroyed.

good luck, little child.

[trepidante4]

socmel

[djjazzydj]

all he needs now is TO GET HIS HAIR CUT!!!

[MatteBIack]

he's a commiee!!!!!!!!

[bigahbirdie]

lol guys he walks like that because that's how he wants to walk jaja he can walk normally... i've seen many kids that walk like that!

[badboywon]

he looks liek me.................jkjk lol

[paddypadman2]

Amm this is really weird and he walks really weirdly.. I have a feeling its cause of the whole working out..

[GreenDress25]

girl!

[bloodfestbogota]

I tought lifting weight is bad when youre young....Im not sure,....didnt like it

[Alex131787]

ya its meant to stop muscle growth when ur older

[dr2]

... hes stay 4 foot for the rest of his life HAHAHAHHA what a dumbass

[Florida31]

Yeah, the six year old child is too dumb to recognize he is damaging himself.

Haha, idiot!

:|

[JohnnyCreampuff]

Richard is 16-years-old today and he's doing just fine.  He no longer bodybuilds but he hasn't damaged himself.

[kerrywsmyth]

I don't get it. I've been involved with kids wrestling for over 20 years. I've probably seen over 20,000 kids come up the ranks, some of which have become some of the greatest athletes in the world. Not one single kid looked ANYTHING like this kid. Either he has a physical abnormality with his body, or his dad pumps him full of steroids.

[Revilox90]

the part that pissed me of the most is that it looks like a girl

CUT THE HAIR

[SStockstill]

it's an ugly girl

[jaybirdeyes]

he is so cute

[skychannels]

[LUTONBUSTYGAL]

[MisterCleo1]

[DashTube1]

[pokjin]

At least i had a childhood.

[SignMeUpForThisBaby]

Child Abuse

[chalino92sanchez]

thats gross not cool gross

[annabethj]

This is an old clip, since this aired his parents have gotten divorced and the mother is letting him be a little boy more than a little machine.

[bodega87]

[anassjoui]

[Speedtouch100]

Sorry. BOY???

[emMkAyY]

[Nakata995]

If she'd already dead, will she come back to life?

[finalstrike777]

this is hella old

[ukharris]

i had no sound while i was watchin this an untill readin your comments, swear it was a gurl

[flipflopsneeded]

dude that's a girl.

[DeReCk120]

i serisoly wouldnt like to get near her lol

[WhiteScott]

thats some really sloppy boxing, even for a little kid. His parents must suck at martial arts.

[Igotopinions]

Agreed

[wiwiwii]

look like a girl!

[chiwon84]

that's not good for his health also, I think.

[chiwon84]

So creepy.

[fnog9]

The scary thing is he looks like a miniature she hulk. Seriously gotta cut his hair. One of the strangest thigns I've ever seen.

[AlexiLaihoRules]

He kicks my ass haha

[dankelts]

Get that kid a haircut and let him act like a 7 year old! His parents should be sent back to Russia.

[allmage]

esat bien que haga ejercicio por que es chibolito es mas feo que la mierda

[raynaoc]

This video is REALLy old. The kid is fifteen now. Google "little hercules Richard" and you can find his website. He looks a little less ripped now.

[usa2555]

ya seriously.. i agree with blafin...

[meleeECI]

He is extraordinary, but they need to work on his speach and make sure he stays in school and works hard to get some skills.

[Blafin]

Just Parents trying to live their life through their kids.

The trouble is the kid will suffer for doing that to his body at such a young age.

[mohammudmusleh]

thats disgusting

[bert872]

i saw this on tv, the kid had like 1% body fat and there was suspicion that his dad was giving him supplements to keep him toned.

[euphanasiarecords]

lol redneck kid

[altergirl24]

1) The kid is a mutant. The same way Lance Armstrong is a mutant. Sometimes the chromosomes line up just right to allow the human body to do some extraordinary things. Any other child would not have the physical coordination to learn what he has at such a young age.

2) He spends less time per day training then most kids spend playing video games or watching tv. Allowing a child to engage in an activity he so clearly enjoys is not child abuse. He's healthier then most girls in gymnastics.

[Igotopinions]

Simple Version: Da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da da STEROID MAN!

[rodunited]

could be worse he could be another fat kid, but this is just weird

[lohegrim]

The boy became a circus attraction... if it is that, what the parents wanted, they reached it :/

[urgrad03]

Poor kid will never be more than 4 feet tall unless he stops with all the weightlifting.

[bridgetterocks]

LOOK at that flowing hair!!! totally barbie!

[txt0]

lol will soon see a muscled barbie on stores

[mc93safc]
