The 4ft 8ins Biles – who captured the hearts of American sports fans when she followed up her 10 Gymnastics World Championships gold medals with four golds and a bronze at the Rio Olympics – made a beeline for the 7ft 1ins basketball legend Shaq, a four-time NBA champion and 15-time all-star.

The 71cm height difference between the pair made the image a viral hit, with the shot being liked over 400,000 times after being posted on Biles’ Instagram page.
