Saw an interesting shot today

This is as close to the layout as I can remember. The shooter is playing the 8 ball. When he called the pocket I cringed as the safe looked fairly simple. But then he fired it in. Never realy thought of thowing a frozen pair off the rail. Anyone else have a unique shot like this?

The layout I have posted isn't exactly like it was laying, but you get the idea.

Playing 1-pocket and needing both balls, player shoots directly into the 1-ball sending it back and forth to the jaws of her pocket and it stops. The 2-ball goes three rails around the table and bumps the 1-ball into her pocket. The 2-ball stops in the jaws of the pocket for an easy 8th ball and the game win.

Cant get the first one to work at all. The 8 squirts to the upper left for me. Cool shot if I can figure it out. How is the CB struck?

My ghost ball may be a little to thin. This was not my shot but I did try it a few times. A little left english and a similar but maybe thicker hit sends it to the pocket.

It was my girlfriend here at our home. We were playing 1-pocket and I suggested maybe trying to 3-rail the 2-ball. I didn't even see the 2-rail 1-ball until it was in her pocket. The 1-ball was a total fluke, but she would have made the 3-railer anyway.
