I don't usually do profiles of non-actors, but Kyle Landi has 364,000 followers on Instagram, 784,000 on TikTok, and 71,000 on Facebook, so I think he's famous enough.
Kyle was born in 2000 in Milton, Ontario, about 40 minutes from Toronto. He was premature, with several holes in his heart that almost cost him his life. But he survived, and by age seven was following his mother to her home gym to work out.
In 2022, he and his stepfather, amateur bodybuilder Joe Dominie, were in Las Vegas for the Mr. Olympia competition, when they noticed a pull-up booth at the fan expo. Kyle ripped his shirt off and started doing pull-ups.
That night he told his parents that he wanted to become a professional bodybuilder, so they started a TikTok account for him and uploaded videos of the pull-ups. By morning they had a million views.
Less than a year later, Kyle became the first Down Syndrome bodybuilder to win a mainstream competition, the True Novice at the Pure Muscle Championships. He also won the Spirit of Determination Award, sponsorships from WolfPack and YoungLA, and an opportunity to train with the legendary Arnold Schwarzenegger at Gold's Gym.
At this point, you probably have three questions.
1. Is it ok to find him attractive?
Sure. People with Down Syndrome can date like anyone else.
More after the break.
2. Is he gay?
No idea. He doesn't mention romantic partners on his Instagram.
3. Is he Superman?
Probably. But his stage name is the Green Ranger.
I'm not going to look for nude photos of Kyle, but I have some of other guys. Guess which has Down Syndrome:
