A 4ft 4in bodybuilding dwarf, who claims to be the "strongest man in the world," is in love with a 6ft 3in transgender woman.

The 52-year-old Anton Kraft, who has benched an incredible 36 stone, met his willowy lover China Bell six months ago and started dating, the Daily Star reported.

The 43-year-old from Florida, who was born male but has now transitioned to female and is Kraft's biggest fan, said that she thinks Kraft's weightlifting is so sexy because he's sexy, adding "when you hold a world heavyweight title, that means a lot."

Bell added that she has never dated a 4ft 4in guy and I was just so curious, adding that she is glad she gave him a chance because he's an amazing person. She's different and he's different, and where they're from, different is good.

The powerlifter, who only dates women who are more than a foot taller than him, says he enjoys dating a transgender woman because she was born a male and is doing the utmost to become as feminine as possible and he finds that most women born as women do not spend as much time on their appearance.

Kraft, who has been powerlifting for 10 years and says he has the highest bench press record of all time for his weight class, said that he may go down on one knee and ask for Bell's hand because he thinks her name would look so good with his last name.

He added that right now he feels like he is the luckiest man on the planet. They are all happy and good and he has never felt better than he does now and that would be thanks to Bell.
