Two bridges, one on top of the other, and then a jump cue on top of that contraption to sink the two ball. I have never even heard of that.
 
that beats vandenbergs world cup of pool shot and thus far is the best match ever, the shooting here exceeds that of the color of money match peaks

one mistake each only by my count
 
The only reason I seen it was because they showed a replay. My video keeps freezing. almost unwatchable. That and the guy that runs the thing is always drunk.
 
This is great shot but I've seen shane jump harder balls I can't remb who it was he was playing maybe carlo he was like half ball away and full table away and jumps the ball and cuts it in on 9 ft he's unreal and always great too watch :thumbup:
 
How come he didn't just use a bridge with his hand...? He had ample of space to do it...good shot nonetheless but I think it was exaggerated.

I'm so with you on this Lenny.. Saying Nick's shot was more pressure is comical at best..

It was just a question, no need to type like a 6 year old (if you this is how you normally type then I suggest you get some help). From the angle of the video, it looked fairly close. But now that I see another user showing how far he actually was; it makes more sense. Indeed it was an amazing shot.

It's the way that Shane racks the balls that makes this jump shot played with two bridges so easy.

But, seriously ..... this is one of the more remarkable shots I've ever seen.

Best shot I've seen in recent years was by Chris Melling in the Mosconi Cup in 2012. Here's how it was reported by one of our posters:

Melling's MVP shot

He had another trick shot worth mentioning, a Deuel-esque umbrella draw shot. But this one took both brains and beautiful execution. After the break he has a viable cut on the 2, but how to get to the 3? Any path involving natural follow seems doomed to bump into the 5. It's a bit thin to pull off an outside draw shot (remember it's a diamond... you can't just hit the ball a bit fat to help your draw... ask Shane).

He lines up the tangent line, sees the cue ball will probably run into the upper half of the 5, so he just loads up with center left spin and pops the ball... firm enough for it to travel on that tangent line, softly enough that the spin really grabs the rail. It somehow flies straight up the table to get him on the 3.

It's not enough that the guy played pretty much perfectly under pressure, he has to look like a genius while doing.
