I never saw anybody shot it.. But I heard from reliable source that Efren shot it in(first try!!!!!) at 9-ball WC when he was warming up.
So I did figured how it could be done... really low % but I made it maybe after 10th try(I did use some practice for it years ago and it did take weeks...)
 
Some really nice shots there Poolmanis. I think it's a shame most games don't allow pushing in some circumstances, as it can lead to some creative shots.

I also think your Dive 5 celebration gesture is likely to catch on among the African American community ;)

Nice - like Fred A. said, they might be shots you'd never actually shoot, but they're real shots. It would be fun to see how many attempts each one took - if < 5, impressive! If > 30, impressive - for perseverance! :smile:
 
Nice video, but I had to watch it without any audio (due to work), but i'm sure Kimi and Valtteri would love the music if they were into pool.

70% of shots I made first or second try. Hardest was that timed follow kiss from rail. It was probably 25 try because had to learn it again. I had that down pretty much years ago. used to be about 40% shot. I also had 6 more shots but I edited them out because video was too long and they are so common tricks.

It is way to shoot shot with extreme english. I actually aim just centerball and pivot it to miscue limit to get extreme spin with accuracy. It comes up maybe 1/2000 shots at game... But when it comes up.. I´m ready!

Very cool video, thank you for this, I also left you a comment on youtube.

Where did you aim centerball before the pivot?

I had ball aimed (almost)just there where it hits. Trick is find and use right bridge length to get that. You can find it with testing. I used there aiming to extreme thin hit and used little bit too long bridge to get slight miss for ball and returning hit from rail.

Put easy straight in shot and aim it centerball full in face and bridge length about 1 foot.
Then move whole stance and body so that cue pivots to miscue limit. Shoot hard. If you miss ball due still too much deflection then move bridge hand closer. If you get opposite move bridge hand further away. Easier to do with normal deflection shaft IMO.
I can get cueball spinning near 30 second with stop shot this way.
