soccer isnt the only thing Oliver Bierhoff is good at...

 i wanted to start more threads about ancient history, but this whole popular culture stuff keeps flooding my desktop, and i need to get through with it before finally going oldschool again....i can now hardly switch on the tv or browse through a random youtube interview, without finding more and more connections...since its always the same folks wearing diffrent makeup...

 first of all talkshow host "markus lanz" is none other than Oliver Bierhoff, famous german soccer player, and later manager of the national team...we can see the ear is clear... he´s a wee bit older in the meantime, not working out so hard anymore...

 he hasnt reached his full potential yet as an entertainer, probly he´s too smart for that... (all this talking really gets silly after a while)...now they want him to host the "wetten dass" show, formerly done by thomas gottschalk...

and i also figured he used to be a famous basketball player, NBA material, before suddenly (in typical fashion) wielding up the ghost, like his famous mother before him (iris berben+alters)

 then also the wives are identical, angela gessmann is klara szalantzy...look how similar that ear is to audrey hepburn aka anne frank... it also has something of the gainsbourg clan if you ask me...

 so he spoke fluent croatian and could throw 3-pointers like a boss, he definitely has the height for basketball, being right around the border (195cm or 6ft5 is rather small for basketball)... for the future if we find ANY tall actor, we automatically need to doublecheck for basketball players...

 so razen petrovic was his basketball alter... remember tel aviv also has a basketball club that has much history, just like the USA (of course) and croatia... wouldnt surprise me at all if he´d be (or become) coach of maccabi tel aviv basketball department...

 thats aronud 20 yrs in diffrence, from petrovic (who became "petrified") to lanz today...

 you can see the outer ear has a long straight section for both men... even tho camera angle differs...

 so these 3 are definitely identical...

 now to the brother... now to iris berben´s present husband, Heiko Kiesow... he plays a present basketball coach in croatia, and brother of deceased drazen petrovic, by the name of...

 aleksandar petrovic !... we see the ear is identical to heiko kiesow...

 here iris berben, the woman of a thousand faces, who has sung all these incredible israeli oldies, under her diffrent artistic alters...along with her husband heiko..

 so these two are the same man as well... you can see by the age (identical) and the hairline...

the hairline on this one is a great give-away..and watch outer rim of the eye... identical...

 now i had to double check quickly the trainers of israeli basketball clubs... and "lo-and-behold"... what do i find... david blatt headcoach of maccabi tel aviv baskets, look familiar ? same age too as heiko/aleksandar

 and look at the ear parade... that must be all the same guy...

 and yet another israeli basketball headcoach this time guy goodes from hapoel yerushalayim...ear not exact match, but a close call... obviously same larger famly...we can see "protektzia" is evrything in this tiny country, you need the right friends, since a clique of people has been running modern israel from the very start...

ok that was the basketball connection... now on to more finds... of my "ALF-leaks" blog...
