In a story comparable with David and Goliath, an 11-year-old girl defeated the most intimidating specimen in all of Disney World's Magic Kingdom with a clever trick.

Challenging the narcissistic villain from Beauty and the Beast, Gaston, to an arm-wrestling match, the girl showed confidence in the face of a laughably impossible opponent.



After Gaston impressed the world, yet again, last week when he single-handedly won a pushup contest against another confident guest, this little girl knew she could only defeat Gaston using her wits.



As the girl and Gaston clutch hands, with the match about to commence, Gaston asks for somebody in the crowd to say "go." Suddenly, in a lightning flash move, the girl rips her hand out of Gaston's grasp, licks it, and then slaps a horrified Gaston's hand down in an easy victory.



The girl walks away in stride as Gaston helplessly screams, both disgusted and disgraced.



"What was that? No! That does not count! I want a rematch right now!," yelled Gaston. "If I had done that to you, you'd be passed out from swooning!"
