Jimmy White and Jud Trump with their extreme top spin shots did it for me. Absolutely unbelievable 😀 Miss seeing and hearing Willie Thorne in the commentators box. Sadly missed but not forgotten. Rest in peace my friend x
He has no humility. I met him and Alain Robiduex at a Chris Eubank fight in Glasgow in the early 90's. Poor Alain Robiduex was left to apologise for the boorish behaviour of the brat. He was lucky not to leave the event in an ambulance. As regards his skill as a commentator; charisma can neither be taught nor learnt.
Alex Higgins' ridiculous shot on the blue playing against Jimmy White is arguably the greatest shot ever made in professional snooker. He went on to win that frame and the match in the final frame with a 16-15 victory, followed by a victory over the legendary Ray Reardon in the final (who had previously beaten Higgins in the 1976 World Championship). That was the 1982 World Championship.
Most snooker shots, as in many sports, are foreseeable with a little knowledge and experience of the contest. Shaun Murphy's unbelievable pot - the very first of this video - was imagination of a professional competitor in true world class. Completely refreshing, whether you've watched snooker all your life, or simply have the character to recognise sporting brilliance - when you witness it. A moment of sheer, improvised magic.
It might actually be the easiest shot on the list...you might have to try it a few times but you will get that, unlike other shots...still very impressive at the crucible
Well, the red is over the pocket. I'd say any decent player would immediatly think of that shot (it's the natural way to try and pot it). Pulling it off in a match on a table you are not particularly familiar with is another matter, though.
Semi outside perspective here. I'm a pool player, I don't play snooker but I really enjoy 9 ball. A lowly 5, a peasant in the eyes of most pool pros, but I can honestly say that having not grown up watching snooker. I can still see the pure skill and competitiveness when I do watch snooker. it's more than just a good eye, and steady hand when playing any form of billiards.
Some of the control these players are getting off the cue ball is absolutely mesmerising, anyone who has played snooker will tell you just how difficult a skill that is.....
This is a top vid and definitely the best choices of shot I've ever seen in a snooker video. The maker is obviously a proper player to realise the level of difficulty for the ones included. Great stuff!
Well, they do walk several kilometers around the table during long matches 🚶🏻♂️ After playing pool for more than 5 hours you feel the strain on your legs, shoulders, hand and neck 🤷🏻♂️
Look at the good sportsmanship of these players. Everyone just happy to witness the greatness of each other. I know no other sport like that. Even a Renegade like O'Sullivan cannot produce any long lasting drama that robbs the focus from these athlets.
To be fair, there were a couple of straight long pots in there, that weren't that amazing that they belong on a list like this. But I'm so glad those legendary Jimmy White shots made it on the list. Took a while to get to them, but they belong to the most amazing snooker shots ever. Wouldn't have minded to have seen Steve Davis and Paul Hunter in there. They played some amazing snooker.
I think those "long straight pots" were included because they were great examples of "cueing power". It wasn't the pot per se, that was incredible, but the backspin on the cue ball, which is part of the shot.
It's easy to say a shot isn't that amazing when you're not the one pulling it off, and have little knowledge of what it takes to do so. Making something difficult look easy is the true sign of a pro. Extremely long shots that require massive power and clinical cue ball control are far, far from easy... which is why the ex-pro commentators react the way they do.
The magnificence of a shot can also be judged by whether other pros are able to replicate it. Id say that Alex Higgins' prodigious blue on the old slow tables is the most unreproducible shot here, and there are several amazing ones.
I guess you underestimate the difficulty of reproducing Maguire's shot! More seriously, I don't think Higgins' shot is that difficult to reproduce for the pros (they showed some of them trying a while ago and they tended to overdo it, if anything). Plus Higgins didn't really mean to play the shot that way. That being said, that break is great to watch for the series of hard pots, although his positional game is all over the place.
@@freyc1 He clearly meant to play it that way. Replicating any shot for fun is possible for a group of pros after the event. Higgins played the shot under immense pressure in a world championship semi-final game. No other shot comes close. Also he was drunk, making it even more impressive.
@@sirlordcomic No, he clearly didn't mean to land where he landed (he wasn't stupid). And I never said it wasn't a great pot, especially under the circumstandes : I responded to someone saying it was the most unreproducible shot in the video. As far as your last sentence is concerned, needing to be drunk to perform doesn't make anything more impressive to me, and I don't think he's drunk here.
@@freyc1 White said in a recent interview Higgins was drinking large vodkas and orange.. So he certainly wasn't sober. I meant he was playing for the black.. I said nothing about playing while drunk being impressive, I meant that fact he was drunk made it technically even more impressive. I doubt the pros you mentioned could reproduce it with even one large vodka and orange in them.
Fantastic shots.... Alex H at 14 mins or so was the one I was thinking about when I played this video. I remember watching it live because AH was under massive pressure to get to the final. Miss that blue and it was probably curtains. God; I am old.
Loved this. Thank you. Plenty from Trump. Loads from Williams unsurprisingly. That ‘no look’ escape/pot was ludicrous. Kirk Stevens shot on the green as part of 147 but then Selby’s final black for a maximum too! So many others 🙂
Great compilation! Only shot I would also argue was worthy was Neil Robertson's long pot of the red with the cue-ball cannoning into another red to clear the path for the black.
I hadn't seen that Jimmy White pink in ages.. All of the other shots are great, important or genius, but that one still has the quality to make me wonder what's wrong with the tv (then) or wifi (now). Magic!
Amazing selection, makes it very hard to pick a favorite. I am not an expert, in fact never dared to touch a snooker table -& don't think I would ever will- however, my limited practice with billiard allowed me to appreciate and enjoy each one of these magnificent shots . The one before last is the one that made me pick up my jaw off the floor. The way he made the cue ball came to a complete stop after such a powerful shot over such short distance is ridicules. Is as if he shot a magnetic ball on a copper surface!
I grew up watching Alex Higgins and Jimmy (James) White, two great players, I named my youngest son Alex James, in my opinion these two players were pioneers of entertainment and skill that brought the game to new audiences. There are many great players out there but for me Alex Higgins, Jimmy White, Ronnie O" Sullivan and Judd Trump are up there for pure skill and entertainment. :)
So many of these shots are amazing but the context of the frame or match is what makes the great ones great. An exhibition shot when the frame is out of sight or the other guy needs 3 snookers are brilliant to watch but the truly great shots are the genuinely brave ones when the frame is still live.
I have watched thousands of top quality snooker shots over the years. IMO the unfashionable Peter Edbon's pink ball was THE GREATEST SHOT EVER IN THE HISTORY OF SNOOKER, because of the context. Semi-final of the World Championships, if he missed he was out of the tournament. This shot inspired him to comeback and win the match against the odds and then do exactly the same in the final in the deciding frame against Stephen Hendry, one of the all time greats and become World Champion! Peter Ebdon, often gets slated by SOME of the snooker world for being a slow and deliberate player, but he was someone who did not have the natural talent of say a Jimmy White, however, he absolutely maximised his potential with his incredible attitude and application. He left the game of snooker not only being able to say "I won the world title" but also being able to say "I once played probably the best shot in the history of the game!". Well done Peter Ebdon!
El tiro de Peter ebdon es el más comprometido(el más importante) de todos estos tiros porque si no metía esa rosa dejaba la mesa lista para que Stevens limpiará la mesa y llegar a esa final
What in the unexplained myseteries happend at 15:35. That cueball control was out of this world. Also williams shot around the 3min mark where he wasnt even looking just proves how amazing he is.
Lots of top, like an unbelievable amount, the position of the pink allowed the cue ball to hit the cushion just before the top-spin took effect, so the top spin acted as a break for the rebound.
Some utterly ridiculous stuff. Brilliant and baffling in equal measure. Those of us who have a go now and then at playing the game know how hard it is to even do the basics, then you see things like this and wonder why you bother 😆
There's so many shots that Jimmy White has played that aren't in this. Like when he smashed the brown ball into the centre pocket from the brown spot, screwed back up in and out of baulk, and landed on a red. Pure class
12:46 - that shot (for me) is the best. Pure technique, and purely intended to definition first time. I like that way even Ronnie couldn’t come close to replicate it, and he’s the best player of his generation!
Funny. No Steve Davis, Stephen Hendry or Ray Reardon either... I guess they're in a League of their own... I once saw Ray Reardon do the most unbelievable positional shot.
That shot at 15:37 looks like camera trickery the way the white stops dead. In fact it reminds me of something I must have seen in the 80s when I was very young - it was a short TV programme that was actually a sequence of edited snooker shots like this but with no indication that it was edited. Almost like an art project. The bit I remember most clearly was that on one shot the player’s hand kind of sank into the table, making him miss the shot, and it had the usual deadpan BBC commentary over the top. Please someone tell me you know what I am talking about and I didn’t make this up!
Maybe i don't disagree with people who say its not top 50 but as far as i know as a creator these were the best... Secondly there are copyright restrictions so need to avoid few shots many times..
I could be a snooker commentator too:
- "What a shot!"
- "And he's potted it!"
- "What a shot that was..."
- "Unbelievable!"
With the occasional "where's the cue ball going?"
Oh and that's a bad miss
Balls all over the place
3:48 Ah, but could you do "He deserved a little kiss on the brown, there"?
When you can look at that first shot before he takes it and explain what the hell he's doing like Virgo did, you might have half a chance.
How calm they are after the shots…think we don’t wanna see what they play at home without any pressure. So much perfection…
the "what a shot" of the commentator is pure poetry
Hits the ball
WHAT A SHOT!

I never realised Stephen Hendry had so much humility. And I certainly didn’t realise that he’d be the best snooker commentator of all time.
He has no humility. I met him and Alain Robiduex at a Chris Eubank fight in Glasgow in the early 90's. Poor Alain Robiduex was left to apologise for the boorish behaviour of the brat. He was lucky not to leave the event in an ambulance.

Can't disagree with that but snooker is not an exciting sport ( a pub game like darts) so it needs characters.

5:44 straight on the hole. Crazy hard shot.
Kyren Wilson's applause for Dave Gilbert's shot says good things about both of them. Bravo tutti
Jimmy White started an era.
No - Higgins did
Jimmy White's exhibition shots make me laugh out loud
The shot by The Whirlwind where the white reverses back was incredible, the fact that The Rocket couldn’t replicate it just goes to show.
