What is the worst roll you have ever seen?

These back-to-back shots by Lil' Ko in a recent match made me laugh out loud:
Sometimes you're just not meant to win the rack.

But I think the 9-ball rolling off as Mario He was shooting it takes the cake. I think it happened during the 2024 McDermott Classic. Maybe against Styer. Don't know where the video is.

That doesn’t mean his choice of shots wasn’t atrocious.
Honestly I think he just put a little too much inside on it thinking that if he did run into the 8 he would be fine. The 9 is kind of a big ball if you go to the bottom rail other side of the table. He is a 725 and that was to make it hill hill vs Warren Kiamco. We will never know if he would have scratched after the 8 or been corner hooked.
 
I can think of the one where Thorsten's cueball is coming down off the end rail about 1 1/2 diamonds out from and parallel to the side rail, then just starts turning sideways and scratches in the corner. RKC or somebody said it was due to faulty cloth install, stretched unevenly.
The other that pops into my mind is when they were using the Brunswick Metro tables for a while, and there was a table that had a corner pocket where guys were shooting balls dead center, and the pocket would trampoline the ball right back up and onto the table
