The best in the world come in all shapes and sizes.

Never has that fact been more clear when Olympic champion gymnast Simone Biles came face-to-waist with Cleveland Cavaliers superstar LeBron James during a game against the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday.

The pair of gold medal-winning athletes posed for a snap or two together at the game, resulting in images that barely look like they're real.

The reason? At 4'9, Final Five gymnast Simone stands at almost a full two feet short than 6'8 NBA champion LeBron.

The photo, which Simone shared on Instagram, shows the petite gymnast in a blue Cavs shirt standing with her arm around LeBron, her head not even coming up to the towering basketball player's chest.

Simone's fans on Instagram couldn't get enough of the photo, with one writing: 'Wow David and Goliath.'

'Omg Simone!! You are like an ant compared to him!!!' said another.
