6-year-old boy did 10,000 pushups in 3 hours?

Lu Di, 6, does pushups as other young kungfu students watch at a kungfu school in Central China's Henan Province July 26, 2006. According to school president Shi Yongdi, Lu did 10,000 pushups in three hours and twenty minutes four days ago. Since he shows so much promise, Shi says the school will waive his tuition for ten years.

While I’d like to give the person who witnessed this feat the benefit of the doubt… did he really do 10,000 pushups? I mean that has to be some kind of egsaduration. Holy hell that's a lot of pushups. Can people in the Army even do this many this fast? The kid is only 6! Article here.
