Toddler Titus has taken part in a basketball shoot off with Hollywood actors Channing Tatum and Bradley Cooper after the pair agreed to make a video with him.
Naturally, the mini basketball champ beat both of them hands down, Titus scored 14 hoops to Tatum's paltry four and trounced Cooper with 14 hoops to the star's meagre eight. Tatum said that for the second round the pair should arm wrestle, while Cooper said that he would train more and then challenge Titus again.
Along with his shoot off with the stars, Titus can seen scoring hoops from the top of a seven storey building.
Titus rose to fame after his father Joseph Ashby posted a video montage of his son scoring hoops at various heights from 3ft to an astounding 7ft. The video attracted over 12 million views and turned Titus into an Internet star, leading to father and son being invited onto the Jimmy Kimmel Show.
The latest video is the third one to be shared by Ashby and is soon going to become a viral hit with already over 500,000 views.
Ashby says that his son started shooting hoops when he was between 18 and 24 months just after he had learnt to walk.
