4-time Olympic champion Simone Biles is the face of gymnastics. Even though she isn’t competing currently, she has done enough to show the world just how talented she is.
Not only is Biles talented, but she is also extremely brave. When she realized that gymnastics was taking a toll on her, she stepped down and prioritized her own mental health and well-being.

After taking a break from professional gymnastics, Simone Biles seems to be much happier than before. She spends her time with friends and family, occasionally going to the gym to practice as well. Recently, she took to Instagram to share clips of a birthday party of her close friend.
Simone Biles has a hilarious encounter with the bartender because of her height
Simone Biles is the most decorated and experienced gymnast in the world currently. When it comes to athletes, they usually have a great height. However, in general, gymnasts are short in stature. And Biles is no exception.
Simone Biles has a height of 1.42 meters, which is 4’8″ inches. On Saturday, she was out with her friends to celebrate her birthday. She could be seen enjoying herself thoroughly.
Biles took to Instagram to share a funny clip of her asking the bartender for a drink. Because of her height, the athlete had to stand up on the ledge to reach the bar. Her friend was doing a video of this and Biles posted this on her story.

Her interaction with the bartender turned hilarious because the bartender asked for Biles’ ID. Even though the athlete is 24 years old, and clearly way legal to have drinks, because of her height, she was asked to produce an ID.
“It was at this point the bartender asked for my id,” wrote Simone on her Instagram story.
However, Biles doesn’t let her height bother her. She knows what her height is and owns it like a queen. “I’m just short,” she added.
Her height has never come in between her and her stellar performances. At the age of 24, Biles is the most talented gymnast in the world, performing tricks that other gymnasts fear attempting.
