United States gymnast Ragan Smith isn't very tall. American basketball player DeAndre Jordan is very tall.

Both are the perfect size for their sport. But when the two took a picture together at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro Saturday, it revealed a humorous juxtaposition.

Smith is an alternate for the U.S. women's gymnastics team. She was born and raised in Georgia, and she is 4-foot-6.

But next to Jordan, who stands at a towering 6-foot-11, Smith looks pretty tiny.

Don't let her small size fool you! She is just as athletic as Jordan, if not more.

She has incredible balance that led her to a Gold medal on the balance team while representing the U.S. in the Pacific Rim Championships earlier this year.

Jordan is a member of the Los Angeles Clippers. We'd like to see him try and walk across the beam.
