Amazing trick shot by the Pearl

I've seen Earl execute this shot years ago in person once. I chalked it up to being a fluke shot, and low and behold somebody caught the same trickshot on camera. I just wanted to share the shot with you guys. Just a side note, when I saw him do it, it was on a 9 foot table. When he made the shot he said the "The whole world is against me, that's why I can do these shots." lol

I was there that day! I had to go to Vegas on business and walked up on Earl, and Mark just before this was happening. I wanted to play Earl more then anything but had no cue.

The sad thing was I did not have the stones to ask to anyone to loan me a cue so I could give the $20 to Earl.

Lol, exactly. Earl made a tremendous shot and three people clapped.

They're afraid to clap, he might just turn around and bite their heads off. :D

I'll say one thing, you see a lot of Earl doing exhibition stuff like this for people passing by, in this case for CSI, I believe. You don't see many other pros hitting shots just for the fans on a table in the hallway. And a hall of famer to boot :thumbup:
 
Earl can do some wild shit that most others can't. The word 'gifted' comes to mind every time I see his wing shots. It's sad a lot of people don't even get how amazing some of this stuff is... you'll see people commenting on the video saying "there's no way he did that on purpose".
 
When he asked if anybody wanted to play 8 ball 2 out of 3 for $20 I'm surprised the whole room didn't jump up. It would be worth it just for the experience.
