Man Challenges Gaston to Push-Up Contest at Disney World, Gets Owned
by Andy Neuenschwander
An interaction between a Disney park patron and one of its costumed characters has gone viral, and when you see the video it's easy to understand why.
This Disney fan and his brother went to Disney World and decided that they were going to issue a specific challenge: they were going to see if they could best Gaston in a push-up competition.
The actor playing the "Beauty and the Beast" villain was ready for the challenge, though, and managed to not only beat his challenger in number of push-ups, but also give him a bit of villanous trash-talk while he was at it.
"So...this got infinitely more attention than I thought it would," the uploader of the video wrote on YouTube after the video racked up millions of views. "We were just having fun and I thought a person or two might get a chuckle out of it. When my brother and I go to the Disney parks (which we love), one of our goals every time we enter is to make someone's day, even if it's just one person. Hopefully we've been able to do that on a little larger scale; and, hopefully again, in a way of which Walt would be proud."
