LONDON -- It's widely accepted that David Hasselhoff is one of the greatest men of the 21st century.

From the early days of Knight Rider and Baywatch to that time he released a cover version of 'Jump In My Car', the Hoff is always full of surprises. He's acted in Hollywood films, hosted professional wrestling events and has even been a judge on Britain's Got Talent.

But now it's time for the next chapter. On Thursday night, D-Hoff's will star in Hoff the Record – a mockumentary style comedy in which the big man plays a fictional version of himself. The show, on British TV channel Dave, revolves around Hasselhoff moving to the UK in an attempt to bolster his struggling career.

To remind ourselves just how awesome everyone's favourite lifeguard truly is, we give you these classic 'Hoff-isms'.
