Of all the fictional Disney characters to bro down with, Gaston has to be at the top of the list.

Case-in-point: That time when an Ironman triathlete challenged him to a push-up contest and lost.

At first, it seems like Gaston might not win. He was moving quicker than the challenger, but wasn't going quite as deep.

He drops the gauntlet, though, when he switches to one-handed pushups and offers a helping hand to the Ironman visiting New Fantasyland at Walt Disney World Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.

If only the Beast in "Beauty and the Beast" had challenged Gaston to a battle of fitness instead.

Maybe Belle's tale then would have gone differently?
