Hoover Doover Manoeuvre

An outlandish physical, or verbal feat, which leaves the observer in a state of amazement. Some might say "Houdiniesque"

Historically used after someone has rolled a perfect joint under particularly difficult circumstances (eg. while riding on a roller coaster or skydiving).
"Thats a real beauty! How did you pull off that hoover doover manoeuvre"

Otherwise typically used when watching sport;
"Wow, he stepped one way, then the other! Before you knew it he'd hoover doovered himself across the try line"
