The sports world has long been transfixed by LSU head coach Les Miles's inability to clap like a real human being. Today, thanks to , we finally know why Miles claps the way he does:
Miles explained the evolution of his distinctive manner of clapping, which often involves his being hunched over as he smacks his palms together with his fingers spread wide.

Yep, that's about what we expected.
