Standing 4 feet 8 inches tall, Simone Biles packs a lot of punch in her tiny body. Short stature isn’t unusual for gymnasts. But it sure makes for an interesting picture when we see the gymnastics GOAT socialize with some of the athletic giants of the country.
But with a height of under 5 feet, it doesn’t take a lot to tower over Simone Biles. In fact, in a rare image, we even saw British racing driver Lewis Hamilton dwarf the gymnastics legend. And he’s probably one of the shortest drivers on the 2022 F1 grid.
