Real life Popeye, Matthias Schlitte is a German arm wrestling champion, who has a superhuman right arm due to a rare genetic defect.
Nicknamed as "Hellboy" Schlitte's left arm is of normal size but a rare genetic defect makes his right forearm bone 33 per cent larger than his left, News.com.au reported.
According to Yahoo! 7 Sport, the 27-year-old said that his gift was recognized when he was 3-year-old but when he was just 16-year-old he went to bar in Haldensleben and weighed only 65kg, so all the bigger men laughed at him but when once he beat all of them they all started to respect him.
Although, he is not a religious person but he believes that it was a gift from a higher power and this was his calling in life, he added.
Schlitte is now 11 years into his arm wrestling career and is a seven-time German champion and 14-time international champion.
