The Bodybuilding Champ With Dwarfism | BORN DIFFERENT ─ Barcroft TV

THIS 4ft 6" dynamo is taking the social world by storm – by claiming the title of UK's Shortest Bodybuilder. Choon Tan, 25, from London, was born with a rare condition called X-linked spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda, a form of dwarfism that affects around one in 150,000 people. At school, his height meant that Choon was vulnerable to being bullied. The turning point came when Choon left school to go to college and he was spotted by a professional bodybuilder who offered to coach him and take him to competitions. In 2015, Choon was officially named UK's Shortest Bodybuilder, a title he wears proudly.
