Jeremiah Johnson from Fort Worth Texas recently won an MVP at the Youth National Championship in Miami, but people on the internet are not convinced he's young enough to accept the award. Johnson claims to be 12 years old.

An image went viral on the internet of the high schooler showing off his award, but also sporting a stylish goatee, which made people question exactly how old he is.





In the same photo of Johnson holding the trophy he also has a tattoo on his right arm, which made most people say there was "zero chance" he is a 12-year-old and that it's impossible to be 12 have facial hair, and get a tattoo.



The TikTok channel @hoodnews24 posted a video where they did a quick interview with Johnson. In the video they ask, "Hey man, I don't know, how old are you?" to which Johnson responded, "12."


Nobody in the comments believed Johnson was 12 years old. Someone jokingly commented, "Mustache says grown man, biceps say 12 years old."


Some people even demanded to see Johnson's birth certificate, proving his age. Here Jeremiah can be seen with his dad at the age of 10. 



"He may only be 12 years old, but that mustache says divorced at least twice," someone said.


They grow up so fast these days.
