The city of Vilnius hosted the heated contest for tots aged seven to 11 months as they put their crawling skills to the ultimate test on a five-metre carpet track as adult team members waved toys and held out snacks to entice them.

The race saw 25 babies lining up ready to tart, but it's said some of them simply stopped to cry, while others sat in the middle of the track - and a few fell over.

The winner was Ignas Dovydaitis, who will be 12 months old in just two weeks.
