Bean has been born.

TheStar.com - Rare gene may treat muscle deterioration

"Somewhere in Berlin, Germany, is a baby Superman, born with bulging arm and leg muscles.

Not yet 5, he can hold 3-kilogram weights with arms extended, something many adults cannot do. He has muscles twice the size of other kids his age and half their body fat.

DNA testing showed why: the boy has a very rare genetic mutation that boosts muscle growth."
