Got to be about a 1 in 30 shot to even hit the back edge, and with no rebound, it would be pretty hard to get it to pop back. Margin of error has to pretty dang small. I could see it happening with plastic inserts, or leather backs, but....
That would be stronger than Tiger piss.

no, but I know a guy who can pretty consistently jump both balls from the table.
This is a standard shot in One Pocket...
Meanwhile, jumping off the back is a gimmick shot that you will never see anyone play.
I don't think that's what the OP was looking for.

I've seen someone in Houston be able to do it on an old Olhausen. I think because the leather pocket had been repaired so many times it was droopy, creating a sort of ramp at the back.
On good equipment I would give someone 2 to 1 odds on 10 tries.

On some furniture style tables, if you hit the ball at good speed center pocket, it will hit the back of the pocket and bounce back out. Those pockets tend to wiggle in most places or are tightened at the wrong angles.
Nope....this is also a more common 1P shot.
The op is asking about going over the ball in the jaws, and hitting the top edge of the pocket, and coming back out with both balls....
