Li Junhao, from Bozhou, Anhui province in central China, was raised by disabled parents after being diagnosed with congenital muscular dystrophy at birth, causing muscle atrophy and joint deformities in his legs.

A viral video posted online on April 9 shows Li confidently tossing aside his crutches, lifting himself into a handstand, and launching into a breakdancing routine filled with challenging moves.

During his performance, Li supports himself entirely with his arms and core, executing moves where his legs swing in the air in circular motions.

In a push-up position, he kept his legs off the floor while bouncing and rotating his entire body to the rhythm.
