Seeing as this fantastic photograph has absolutely nothing to do with sports, we had to find a way to make it about sports. Seriously, it’s too good to pass up.

We hear Manny Pacquiao is an animal person.

Even Ickey Woods got a lift. That alligator is impressively strong to hold up a grown man.

SPORTS! You’re welcome, world.
