Walking at 9 months

This is my baby no. 5 and the last ( spread over 20 years!) He has already begun to walk just before he was 9 months....its seems incredibly early, and looks quite strange to see him up against hist older brother 2 1/2. Pointless post really but just wanted to find out if anyone else has had a baby walking this early? He seems to have no fear at all and will happily head off in any direction that interests him. Its such an exhausting stage this as I can't leave him to play for one second before he is up and off!!
