I have found this website (Hall of Shame:divers in football) which has listed and provide some video links (YouTube and Brow Beat) to some of the most shameful diving in football. There are two list, the recent known dives in the past two years and an older well known dive list.

Some dives are quite comical, shameful and unbelievable. The Player, date, team he plays for and the opponent he plays against, whether it was rewarded or being sanction, some are video linked and personal remarks are given.

Hall of Shame:divers in football

Make some comments about it here on this thread.

Enjoy or be disgusted, the shame is all to see.

Oh yeah, that story about the Croatian defender that died of an heart attack (this part is true) and was given a yellow card (that part of not true) was a purely fabricated story that spread about on the internet, media etc. The player was no where near the ball when he collapsed.
