Overview

• During an ARD late-night segment, Kahn answered a question about his toughest competitor by saying, "the guy with the chainsaw."
• Reports identified the line as a reference to Jens Lehmann, who was fined €135,000 over an alleged 2022 chainsaw incident at Starnberger See.
• Kahn recounted from his Karlsruhe days that he saved every shot in a halftime fan penalty contest, unaware the goals were meant to raise money for charity.
• His wife, Svenja, attended the taping and sat in the front row as the exchange drew laughs.
• Coverage also revisited Kahn's path from decorated Bayern goalkeeper to club CEO from 2021 to May 2023, ending with his dismissal after a championship.
