Levytation

According to France's foremost philosopher Bernard-Henry Levy, Zinédine Zidane is "more admired than the Pope, the Dalai Lama, [the Fiver] and Nelson Mandela put together". In fact according to Levy, it was precisely because he's so adored that Zizou brutally chestbutted Marco Materazzi during the World Cup final. The modest hero wanted to show he was human, see, not "a demi-god or some idiotic empty hologram". And as everyone knows, the best way to show you're a man is to behave like a rabid rhino.
