Did Jeanette Lee set a record for most balls made at once?

Just about 3 years ago, while playing 8 ball on this pretty crappy small bar box, I broke and made 9 balls on the break. 6 stripes, 2 solids and the 8 ball.

Still today I haven't seen more than 6 in one break. And I can't remember making more than 5 balls since.

No, it was just balls. It was an extremely complex layout basically with a cluster in the center that spread out into other clusters which if I recall correctly were mainly two bigger ones near the side pockets and smaller ones toward the corners. Again, it's been maybe a year and a few months since I saw it but the timing thing was absolutely insane.

My sense was that there was no chance Jeff would ever put it on YouTube. He talked about a couple different distribution ideas he had, but then he'd tear down those ideas just as quickly. He was very protective about copies and he was a little careful about who he played the tape for. It was kind of like if you asked, he would probably say no, or he was busy, but if you just happened to be standing there talking to someone else, he might come over and ask you if you wanted to see it. lol

Okay I figured out how this is believable to me. I bet that there were balls still left on the table when the shot was over right?
 
In 2003 or 2004, my family and I were at the Windy City Open/Expo and I, along with Corey Deuel, Larry Nevel, Grady Mathews, and about 12 other top notch players were watching someones laptop that had a video of a guy (I think from Chicago area) that had 35 balls set up on a table and pocketed them all in 1 stroke... might be the same guy that most of you are referring to!

Man was that unbelievable! Corey said, "no way did he do that, play it again"! So we watched it again... Corey was like a broken record, we watched the same shot/video 3 times before Corey said "don't want none of that" and just shook his head and started laughing!

Yes, but not as many as you would think. I wanna say it was damn near all of them but I think there might have been maybe 7 balls left? I don't recall.

And yeah Zims, if it was on a laptop at the Windy City Open, it had to be him.

If you weren't careful, he would start explaining how he breaks it down and how the surface of the balls, the temperature, and humidity conditions change things. How even with newly cleaned balls, there was still all kinds of variation in throw. That was the simple stuff. When he would start talking about how he would come up with the patterns, there was no way in the frickin' world anyone could follow him, but he kept trying! lol

He would work on just one maybe 15 ball piece of the puzzle for maybe 3 months.

Definitely the tortured artist.

Yes, seriously.

I wish I could diagram it for you, but I have no idea how it happened. As I said, I was playing a safety (or moving balls if you will), overly aggressive. I was new to the game and really didn't know what I was doing.

It was like some type of freaky trick shot (on accident).

It totally took me by surprise when balls started falling. True story whether you believe me or not.

Yes I believe you are right I recall Jeff mentioning that Nevel and Corey saw it and there reaction to it was pretty cool. Bill Incardona has also seen Jeff shoot this shot and has mentioned it in a thread sometime back.
It's an unbelievable shot and all the balls on the table go except the cueball. It takes a monster stroke too you really have to hit them good.
Jeff told me he was working out with free weights to strenghten up his arms for this shot. Philw

That's nothing. I once broke in eight ball and after my break every single ball, all the solids and all the stripes and the eight ball, ended up frozen together in a perfect triangle pattern near the headspot.
