He's well known as a passionate, determined anchorman with tremendous mental and physical courage.
On 23 November 2005 he dived in late, high and 2 footed on 18 year old Rosenborg player Per Ciljan Skjelbred, breaking both bones in his lower leg just above the ankle.
It's not known if this was a result of his mental or physical courage but Stoltidis confirmed that he 'didn't mean it'.
