Remember those adorable twin toddlers who, back in 2013, had the cutest Taekwondo fight of all time? Well, there’s a new tiny Taekwondo practitioner on the Internet, and he’s really cute too. Like almost unfathomably cute, considering he’s not a puppy or a baby wombat.
Watch as the tiny tot tries every possible strategy he can think of in order to break a board. He tries everything — jumping on it, kicking at it, knocking it over, stomping on it — and does not stop, even as his classmates giggle. That’s perseverance.
Finally the little warrior figures out how to break the board, earning himself a white belt. He should also get some kind of special medal or patch for creativity and awesomeness.
