Some Sap Publicly Loses Push-Up Contest with Disney Character

Gaston

Bit of friendly advice: if someone’s job is to impersonate a notorious strongman, it’s probably not a good idea to challenge them to a strength competition. Unfortunately for some tourist dude at Disney World, nobody told him this before he entered into a push-up contest with Gaston from Beauty & the Beast.

Look, folks, I get it. The possibility of publicly emasculating someone at their silly, kid-entertaining job in front of your friends, family, and complete strangers can be very enticing. But the potential downside – getting publicly emasculated yourself by a guy who makes a career out of pretending to be a children’s cartoon character – as this poor bastard found out, simply isn’t worth the risk. Seriously, if the guy had won, nobody would have even heard about it. But he lost, in spectacular fashion, and now it’s all over the Internet.

Maybe next he’ll head over to the Haunted Mansion and try to scare some ghosts or get into a drinking match with one of the Pirates of the Caribbean.
