Quick: Someone call notorious soccer-hater Ann Coulter. We have discovered what is probably the most overly dramatic soccer flop in the long and storied history of soccer flops.

It comes courtesy of Leeds United's midfielder Adryan during his team's most recent match, a 2-0 loss to Derby City. Words scarcely do Adryan justice (an Oscar award, however, might) so please behold his epic, spasmodic, writhing flop.

Hmm, why does that look so familiar? Oh, yes, that's right -- we can observe similar behavior in the natural world.

Eat your heart out, Arjen Robben.
