Remember the recent, disturbing video of a two-year-old Indonesian boy chain-smoking?
It went viral, spreading quickly across TV talk shows and newscasts, sparking outrage and disbelief.
So, reports CBS News Correspondent Jeff Glor, a CBS News team travelled to the Indonesian island of Sumatra in search of the boy.
And just before midnight, our crew found Aldi Suganda, in the quiet fishing village of Musi Bbanyuasin -- lit cigarette in-hand:
At home, Aldi plays with toys and grips a bottle.
But his tiny hands also light cigarettes with the familiarity of a seasoned smoker.
Man you can get rich selling cigarettes to this kid.

ANOTHER KID WITH A SMOKING HABIT
Chinese toddler Ya Wen started downing pints and smoking up to a pack a day after being struck by a speeding van and spending five days in a coma, her parents told the Yangcheng Evening Post.
"She likes drinking," her mother, Gao Wen, said.
"Three glasses of beer is no problem to her."
Gao Wen said her daughter's personality changed dramatically and she started acting like an adult shortly after leaving the hospital.
First, she was busted hiding in the toilet smoking her dad's cigs. Then she began stealing them from a store - until the owner let her have them on credit.
"The first time I found her smoking was in the toilet," her mother said.
"Before that, I often saw cigarette butts in the toilet but thought they were my husband's, until I saw my daughter smoking there."
The store owner said he assumed the child was buying the butts for Dear Old Dad, adding that the child would take up to two packs away at a time.
Next thing you know an infant is going to be hooked on cigarette and 40 ounces.This is crazy. Video when you jump.

THIS IS WHAT A SMOKING TOODLER LOOKS LIKE
This is the two-year-old Indonesian boy who throws a tantrum when his parents refuse him a cigarette.
Ardi Rizal was given his first cigarette by his father when he was just 18-months-old.
The smoking toddler was witnessed by a reporter who recently visited his home in the fishing village of Musi Banyuasin, in Indonesia's South Sumatra province.
'I'm not worried about his health, he looks healthy,' shrugged the boy's father Mohammad Rizal.
'He cries and throws tantrums when we don't let him smoke. He's addicted.'
Ardi's youth is the extreme of a disturbing trend. Data from the Central Statistics Agency showed 25 per cent of Indonesian children aged three to 15 have tried cigarettes, with 3.2 per cent of those active smokers.
The percentage of five to nine year olds lighting up increased from 0.4 per cent in 2001 to 2.8 per cent in 2004, the agency reported.
A video of a four-year-old Indonesian boy blowing smoke rings appeared briefly on YouTube in March, prompting outrage before it was removed from the site. Hey let him smoke. Maybe then he might lose some weight and not die from heart disease.
