Move Over Gangnam Style - Here's All You Should Know About Chris Gayle's Latest Salt Bae Celebration
Chris Gayle has a new celebration style now!
Chris Gayle isn't only about big sixes and boundaries. He's also about whacky on-field celebrations. In Tuesday's clash between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Gujarat Lions, the Universal Boss reached the milestone of 10,000 T20 runs and then his fifty by tonking the ball out of the park. Soon after that he did something that caught everyone's attention -- the salt bae celebration.
Gayle has probably had enough of the Gangnam style celebration and needed a change of style. So here's a new celebration.

How well do you know the latest celebration that broke the Internet sometime ago?
This is a celebration style performed by a Turkish chef, whose style of sprinkling salt on steak went viral. The chef's name is Nusret Gokce, who is in the news these days for his eccentric antics.

Gokce, who is also a butcher, once broke the Internet through a video where he was seen chopping meat and then sprinkling salt in the iconic fashion. The video got more than 12 million views. The Salt Bae move has just not been done by Gayle. Other sport stars have also copied the move on the field.
Arsenal footballer Danny Welbeck did it after scoring for the Gunners in an FA Cup clash against Southampton. It was also copied by rugby player Jonathan Davies.
