Is this the fastest seven-year-old in the world?

Seven-year-old Florida schoolboy Rudolph Ingram shocked onlookers, when he took just 13.48 seconds to complete a 100 metre sprint. The youngster, known as 鈥楤laze鈥, is aiming to one day smash the 9.58 second world record set by Usain Bolt.

His dad, Rudolph Ingram Senior, got him interested in track running when he was three-years-old and told Radio 5 Live he's 鈥渙ne of the fastest kids around鈥.

鈥淗e鈥檚 very quick. His feet go up and down so fast so if you鈥檙e coming out slow you鈥檙e in trouble.鈥

鈥楤laze鈥 is also a big fan of American Football, and aims to one day compete in the Olympics as well as the NFL.
