- Actually, for me, the rarest shots in snooker are masse shots, but I know how much you like clickbait titles, so I couldn't resist :) Here are all the banana shots I could find.
The best banana shot ever, in my opinion, isn't here. The famous Jimmy White banana shot where the cue ball stops in an instant. First time I saw it it looked supernatural.
That’s not a banana shot. More stun screw back.
@@god124812 Thanks for trying to help but you clearly don't know the shot I'm talking about. It's a banana shot but the cue ball, after hitting the cushion and bouncing off at high speed almost instantly stops. Similar to the Trump shot against Barry Hawkins, but even more amazing in my opinion.
i know which one you mean.. even to this day i still feel like it must be fake (obviously not) but it seems to defy the laws of physics ;p
@@zqfmgbhoo still not a banana shot
@@shahs923 whatever you want to call the shots in this video, it's the best I've ever seen
8:36 This is nuts best of the lot for me the way he lines up once pulls back full power shot and ends up inch perfect on the brown madness.
Not really , With a certain of amount of training in competition you understand that this shot can actually be pulled off
there is a degree of coolness to the shot, however i wouldn't call it MADNESS or NUTS
@@martinkuliza Madness is how i describe something i have never seen before and I have watched and played a lot of snooker. I have seen similar but not with so much white ball reaction it was NUTS look at Hawkins reaction and he is Ranked 9th in the world.

Fare enough i can respect all that, Only i don't see too much rarity here
there are a few rarities but not much,
the problem i have with this video is they are trying to depict as if the entire video is comprised of rare shots
after this one i saw another it was something like most amazing pool shots ever
and you see basic shit like someone doing a double off a cushion or snookering for position
i guess it's you tube and they bullshit for the sake of comments and subs but all i'm saying is these video's overstate what is actually in the video
@@martinkuliza Do you look at a go-kart and an F1 car and think 'they both have wheels, an engine, and race, they're exactly the same'?

What ?
Mate.... What the fuck are you on about ???
Many thanks for this compilation, some of these shots I hadn't seen before, I'm sure it took a lot of research, even from qualifying matches. Well done mate!
There is a fantastic shot by Alex Higgins to get out of a snooker. Swerves the cueball half the length of the table to hit the object ball directly. Can't seem to find it anymore. Glad to see Jimmy White in this compilation though. Thumbs up!
Wasn't that Jimmy White masse shot?
Jimmy White was absolutely ahead of his time with some of the shots he played. Such a shame he never managed win any major titles.
In fact he did win 2 Majors: the Masters in 1984 plus the UK Championship in 1992. On the course of his career Jimmy has collected the trophies of 10 Ranking Events plus 14 Invitationals (Mark Selby for comparison: 20 + 4). He shouldn't be remembered just for losing his 6 World Championship finals -- it was a huge achievement reaching them in the first place!
Do some research
Young Jimmy white Vs Judd trump would be such an entertaining game
@2:53 i think is the best banana shot i've ever seen... because mostly we see a screw back making banana or cue ball follow up shot while it's going its natural top spin... but damn that was totally going bananas and nuts by jimmy white
Brilliant shots👏
Please do a compilation with masse shots!😁
compilation of Judd Trump's shots. The first time I have ever seen a snooker shot compilation without a single shot from Ronnie.
Amazing... I wonder if it really is the rarest, but either way such a great video!!!
Trump and Hawkins laughing was quality
idk if I'd call it rare it's just an effect that happens when you have top spin aka follow and you hit hard which makes the ball go off the tangent line more and the spin doesn't grab the cloth until further down the tangent line. I guess it's not common because you don't have to hit the ball that hard to get your leave all the time, and most of the time there's a better path to take from one object ball to another but sometimes it is needed. idk though it's just a shot that anyone could do with a little practice
No one said it's hard. Just that it's rare in professional snooker
Try playing the one at 8:38 with "some practice"
The rarest shot could be gun shot, since almost all major snooker tournaments happens in Europe.
2:54 The back to back Ted Lowe vs Virgo commentary comparison is stark. Few words across two shots from Ted, A billion words a second from JV. I know which I prefer.
What about jimmy’s last pink and black in the 1984 Masters semi final against Kirk Stevens? Check that one out 😮
8:38
A banana shot compilation that doesn't include Jimmy Whites pink against Willie Thorne? tut tut and tsk
these shots cant be that rare as there are so many of them !!
I notice Judd Trump featuring quite often in this video. Why play a simple shot when you can play an exhibition shot? An awesome snooker player.
Subbing cause of this video , beautifully put together
Can you please reupload a video which had a background music named "ALIGN - I'll Get There"
Ohhh God , that on 7:31 by Drago is really violation of laws.
Notice how Trump is in half of the clips.. Love the guy and his playing style 💯❤️
Insane Potter judd ❤
It's called rarest shots but most the clips are different players doing the same type of shot.
This Jimmy White guy..he is pretty good 😀
2:04 I need those tables in my life 😵🔴
Rarest shot ? I do this all the time. My highest break is 8 though.
I agree, These are not rare shots, sure they are cool and you do them when you must
when you don't have an angle that you like, but certainly not rare
I used to play competition, i was a B Grade Player Used to average 35 to 40 Points per shot
i've commonly done these shots and i've seen other players commonly do them
Thats 7 points higher than mine…
Alex Higgins was the first to pull these shots off...
Back then the balls, cloth, atmosphere etc etc etc were awful compared to today
Great work
A rare occasion Stephen Lee trying to win lol
STUART BINGHAM IS THE GREATEST
so rare the video is over 10 mins long and you came no where near to showing all of them
It's not rare, just lots of topspin over a distance and you'll get this effect every time, for close shots topspin plus side.
The ball is alive!!!
It used to be known as " screw, and side"
I was wondering what banana shots are, turn out they're force follow shots
Yeah. Follow shots where the topspin takes effect after hitting a cushion
a peach of a banana
lol those are just top spin shot
you can easily do it in a clean table
@8:39 ridiculous
"the rarest" lmfao
Here is some trick shots❤
Whats the shot called again...
Saging
Jimmy and Judd
Every other shot is Judds
I do it all the time... In 8 ball pool!!! 😂😂😂🎱🎱
Snookers definitely not a sport right it's a game of skill as you can see here
It's a sport for people who are too lazy for golf or bowling.
They all great but always something a little extra when Jimmy does it so easy to forget how good he was in his pomp without him higgins O’Sullivan trump would struggle to be a tv sport
The ones where the ball is right in the jaws of the pocket don't impress me. I can do those and I barely know what I'm doing.
The rest? Crazy enjoyable.
always Jimmy white
I guess the best one is shot by jud trump at 8:36
5:07 8:38
Trump is real champion of such shots
not "is" snooker....it's "in" snooker..😄
They should rename it "a white trump" shot 😅
Great shot but a racist name for it
No Ronnie???Wtf...
Ronnie doesn’t really do these type of shots ,he never has ,even in exhibitions of which he does plenty ,he’s all about knocking in big breaks and 147’s and playing pin point position.
Trump green to brown was impressive
