Gaston goes Beast mode on Disney World visitor’s push-up challenge

Jan 6, 2015

Disney World guest, Blake Platt challenged Gaston, the villain from "Beauty and the Beast"  to a push-up contest.

Gaston agreed to the contest and asked the crowd to count.

"Come on, hurry up, you're too slow, " Gaston boasted.

Gaston won the count, but continued to show off by doing one-handed push-ups.

"Need a hand?" asked Gaston.

Platt struggled to continue and eventually fell to the ground.

It was all in good fun, though, as Platt said, "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."
