Rizal who lives in a fishing village Musi Banyuasin, Indonesia, smokes at least 40 cigarettes in a day. He got addicted to smoking after his father gave him a cigarette when he was just 18-months-old, reports thesun.co.uk.
He weighs more than 25 kilograms and finds it almost impossible to run with other kids.
"He's totally addicted. If he doesn't get cigarettes, he gets angry and screams and batters his head against the wall. He tells me he feels dizzy and sick," said his mother Daina.
Rizal smokes a particular brand and his habit costs his parents more than 5 USD a day.
The officials of the village have offered to buy the family a car if he quits.
However Rizal's father Mohammed, a fishmonger finds no problem with his habit and believes his son is quite healthy.
"He looks pretty healthy to me. I don't see the problem," said Mohammed.
