Dirk van Duijvenbode delivered a hilarious on-stage moment during his second-round match at the German Darts Grand Prix in Munich on Sunday, April 5, 2026. Facing Mike De Decker, Van Duijvenbode attempted a 90 checkout via double 18, double 18 at 4-3; his first dart hit the double, but the second landed in single 18. In response, the Dutchman threw his leg high into the air, creating a peculiar and comic scene that quickly spread across social media.
Despite the amusing mishap, Van Duijvenbode held firm in a tight contest, edging De Decker 6-5 to advance to the next round of the Euro Tour event. The PDC Darts account shared a video of the leg-kick moment on Twitter, captioning it "Dirk, what are you doing with your leg 🤣", which drew widespread amusement from fans and fellow players alike.
Van Duijvenbode embraced the humor afterward, changing his social media profile picture to an edited image of himself in a ballerina outfit, based on the leg-raising moment. He captioned it simply: "Hello profile pic". The light-hearted move garnered approval from colleagues, with Luke Humphries responding "Class!" and Danny Noppert replying with a string of laughing emojis.
