I think he might be flexing his abs cause it looks like hes laughing.

Actually, the guy in the OP is pretty ripped. Genetics is a factor, but that guy had to do a lot of work to get his abs like that. He's not bulky, but he's built.
Yeah, you gotta lose fat by dieting and gain muscle by working out with weights. For getting "ripped" you do medium weight and high reps. Say, 3 sets of 12 with a weight that gets pretty hard to lift by rep #10.
Or maybe just be a swimmer. They have bodies like that.

low body fat is key. that's why I look pretty "ripped" despite having no muscle mass whatsoever. 6% body fat is nice 
It's not in my genetics to be ripped. When I got out of high school I played football for a season and did some very very hard workouts. I weighed only 135 lbs. Yet I still didn't look ripped. You could see my ribs and my collarbone, but my genetics dictates that my muscles are smooth and I always have a "soft" appearance. I think my skin is pretty thick.
Some people can diet and they'll rip up and they'll have good definition. Others will just be skinny, but won't be defined. I was working out constantly yet never could develop a toned physique. My dad and my brother are the same way- we can lose weight and get as skinny as we want, but we won't look jacked, we'll just look boney and weak. A few years ago I dieted down from 220 lbs down to 165 lbs. Yet still, I had no definition. The only time I could see defined shoulder muscles was when I was taking a load of 1-AD.
I'm 29 now and have been lifting since high school. I can do the weight I just don't look it.

If you get serious about lifting, try not to get discouraged. You'll find that genetics plays a huge role in things and you'll probably never get to where you want to be (do any weightlifters?). You'll also have to put up with people telling you that you're not trying hard enough. My friend is genetically ripped and he sits on the couch and eats potato chips, beer, and soda. His brother does the same yet can pick my friend up over his head- without going to the gym.
I wouldn't follow any of those fad diets (Atkins, South Beach, etc...). I recommend the "everything in moderation" diet. Eat smaller portions, and choose healthier foods most of the time. Eat 6 smaller, spaced out meals rather than the traditional 3 big ones. You gotta get enough calories to have energy for your workouts. And, take a multivitamin. Good luck!
