Part of the current offside law reads as follows:

A player in an offside position at the moment the ball is played or touched by a team-mate is only penalised on becoming involved in active play if interfering with an opponent by preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing the opponent’s line of vision.

You don't reckon 6' 6" Aden Flint doing star jumps in front of the keeper could be considered to obstruct an opponent's line of vision?
