What Vince Brasco may lack in height, he more than makes up for it in dedication and work ethic. Known by many as Mini Hulk, the 4-foot-one-inch-tall bodybuilder shows up big time at the gym. Despite being born with a form of dwarfism called achondroplasia, it doesn’t stop Brasco from hitting the gym as hard as anyone else. The 25-year-old from Pennsylvania has become a professional bodybuilder and he has definitely put in the work to earn it.
Vince, who weighs 87-pounds, can bench-press 265-pounds, which is over three times his own weight. Mini Hulk revealed that he became a bodybuilder to avoid the weight problems that those with dwarfism often suffer from. “I wanted to be a role model to everyone who has dwarfism. If you have a dream, go for it and never give up. Always believe in yourself,” he told Strength Addicts.
Besides always being at the gym, Brasco is a firefighter and says his upper body strength enables him to kick ass at his strenuous job. “I work out a lot – as much as I can down at my gym,” he said. “It really helps on the job. You need to be strong.”
Mini Hulk is quite the celebrity, here he is with one of his fans, Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Keep crushing life, Mini Hulk.
