- Some babies kick a lot in the womb
before they're born,
and others wait til they're out,
like our next guest.
We got a 21-month-old
mini martial artist
who has kicked his way to 100 million likes on TikTok.
Let's take a look. (audience cheers and claps)
(bottle thudding)
- [Caesar] Only the cap. (cap pops)
- [Caesar] Oh, ah.
(audience applauding)
- Please welcome Joshua: Super Baby,
and his parents, Caesar and Natalia.
(audience cheering and applauding)
- Thank you.
- So, Caesar, how did all this get started?
- It started when he was seven months old.
I saw Josh had lifted up his leg
and start kicking before walking.
And I am a Martial Artist myself.
I'm a Taekwondo master, 6th degree.
I've been over 44 years in martial art fighting; competing.
- [Steve] Oh, okay.
- [Caesar] And also, I think he gets
a little bit after his father's footsteps.
So, I try to invest my time in him.
So, after that, this guy became,
like a-
he became one of the most talented baby in the world
because he can kick, like-
he kick everything he sees.
But, what's most impressive about Joshua
is his balance
and how he can
concentrate on the time
when he's doing the kicks.
But, yeah. He start at 7 months old.
(Caesar laughing)
(audience laughing)
- So, let me ask you something.
Natalia, you've got your hands full right here.
- Yeah.
- This must be in the genes. I mean-
Are you a martial artist, too?
- Yes. I'm a black belt in TaeKwonDo as well.
(audience clapping and cheering)
- [Steve] Oh, well, this explains it.
- Yeah.
- [Natalia] And I was training throughout my whole pregnancy
until the last day.
- [Caesar] Wow.
(audience cheering)
- Did you all meet in the martial arts?
- [Natalia] I graduated from a law school. So I didn't-
- Oh, you went to law school?
- Yes, but then I decided-
because I wanted to do martial arts all my life
but my parents kind of
never let me do it.
And one day, I was just driving home
and I saw the martial arts school next to my home
in Beverly Hills, and I decided,
Okay. I have to walk in and see what's going on there.
And I met Caesar
and he just told us
I can do private classes
and I started to train.
- [Steve] Oh. So, she walked in,
- [Caesar] Yeah.
- [Steve] You knew right away she needed special attention.
- Exactly.
(audience laughing)
- [Steve] So, private lessons right away Caesar?
- I guess so.
- Private lessons right away.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Are you two shocked by all the social media attention
that Joshua's getting?
- Yes, I am.
The video's, like, more than 100 million views
all over the world
and people actually calling me about Joshua.
- [Natalia] (to Joshua) Yes, that's you baby.
- This one, he was 1 year and 2 months right there.
And when I saw that, then I said this guy's-
something in him is very special
and as a master in Taekwondo,
every kid is very good.
I think martial art's awesome for them.
Build, you know, self-confidence; self-esteem.
And Joshua has all of that at this age.
So, I think he's just gonna get better and better.
- I mean, he's not even 2 years old yet.
- No, no.
- [Steve] That's young.
- 1 year and 9 months.
- But, you said something about balance.
That's really-
that's very unique at that age.
- [Caesar] Yeah.
- To be kicking and staying on one leg without falling.
(audience clapping)
- He's not even 2. Where does he go from here?
- I think we're gonna go-
he's a big star, you know?
He's loves action. He loves attention.
And wherever we go with-
wherever I go with him,
yeah, he likes to do a show for everybody.
So, I think we have
a little new Hollywood-born star right here.
(audience clapping)
- Okay, well let's see.
Show me something.
They got a little demonstration.
Let's see him do his thing.
- I have some stuff here.
Let me ask if he can do it.
Joshua, do you wanna-
Joshua, do you wanna take this cap
out of my mouth to show them?
Hold on. Let's see.
- [Natalia] Action.
Kick. Kick.
- [Audience Member] Whoa!
(audience cheering and clapping)
- Whoa, you see that?
Joshua, you wanna do a kick right here, fast?
Oh, ah.
(audience clapping and cheering)
- Oh my god. Oh my god.
That's was good.
Now, let's see something here.
- He just be waiting.
(audience laughing)
- Look. Aww! Joshua.
Can you take this out of my mouth?
(audience clapping and cheering)
- [Natalia] Good job.
- Wait, but, do you know how hard that is though?
- Now, we're gonna try something.
See if he can break a board for everybody.
Gotta hit hard, okay?
1, 2, action!
(board breaking)
- Yay!
(audience cheering and clapping)
- Good job. Give me a five.
- Give five, give five.
- [Steve] But he don't even be waiting though.
Ain't no set up.
(audience laughing)
- Go 'head. What, you got something else?
- I wanna do a challenge here.
Joshua.
I wanna see
if you can do something with Joshua, with me.
Josh is gonna take a carrot out of your mouth today.
- Joshua-
(audience laughing and jeering)
- [Caesar] Let's do it.
- Caesar, look at me man.
(audience laughing)
I don't want your baby to mess around
and kick me in my mouth
'cause I ain't really good at the,
'Oops, I'm sorry', I don't really-
I ain't really good at that, Caesar.
And then, you being a 7th degree Taekwondo
and then she being a black belt,
I'm just gonna end up getting my ass whooped up here.
(audience laughing and clapping)
- Ain't no need in me going through that.
But, I can hold it. Let me hold something
and see if he'll kick it.
- If you put in his mouth, he'll take out of your mouth.
- If I put it in-
- Yeah. Joshua!
- [Natalia] Joshua.
- Joshua!
Do you wanna kick? Look, Steve-
Steve gonna hold something for you.
- Okay, hold on, hold on.
Okay, now listen to me. (audience laughing)
Listen to me, Joshua.
Slow down. Take your time. Don't get excited.
I'm gonna put it up here by my mouth.
- [Caesar] Just go a little bit lower. That's it.
- Your eyes is too wide.
Wait a minute. Step back a little bit.
- [Caesar] Step back.
You're gonna kick the thing outta his mouth, okay?
- I'm nervous.
(audience laughing and clapping)
Don't want this carrot.
- Okay you gotta kick it outta his mouth.
- Okay, I'm gonna do it but listen to me man.
Stop all this, here.
You looking at-

'Cause you're too edgy. (audience laughing)
Let me get down here.
Okay, now listen to me.
