An act that
Jurgen Klinsmann took up during his time at Tottenham. It was widely spread that Klinsmann went down too quickly under tackles and
dived a lot. After learning of this he used his goal celebrations in the same manner, by sliding across the floor on his stomach. Inventing the Klinsmann Celebration/Dive.
"It's
muddy as hell out on the
pitch. If I score I'm doing a Klinsmann Dive"
"Klinsmannnnnnnnn!" *Said when
sliding across a muddy pitch*
