Lithuanian Baby Racing Champion mired in performance-enhancing scandal
By John Herrman, 4:20 PM on Mon Jun 1 2009


Kajus Aukščionis is quite possibly the fastest baby in the world. Sure, he's been training since he was five months old, but his real secret is much closer to our hearts. He loves laptops. There's a lot to think about here. What are the mechanics of a baby race? Are people betting on this? Or, most directly: What the hell, Lithuania? But I'll leave those thoughts to someone else, because I see something beautiful here: This is the story of a tiny little human who has, at least for now, become the Usain Bolt of babies, all because he loves technology, even—or perhaps, especially—in the form of his dad's janky Dell laptop. It's almost enough to bring a tear to my eye.
