    The word your looking for is Genius, end of
    Alex Higgins , Jimmy White and Ronny O’Sullivan my favourites of all time

    Higgins is the GOAT.
    Didn't win enough World titles. Didn't win enough titles period.
    Not consistent.
    And I still believe he is the GOAT.
    Played shots that nobody, then or now, could or can play. Robotic, precision play that we see today was a direct consequence of this man pulling out relentless genius shots. Players had to win games in one visit, because he could pot and get in from anywhere on the table.
    There are many more videos of many more outrageous shots he played.
    But he was an awesome safety player too.
    He inspired Jimmy White and Ronnie O'Sullivan, and if you watch Steve Davis interviews, he actually loved Alex too, whilst simultaneously being terrified of him!😂
    Alex made snooker. He made it exciting and entertaining. He was a flawed genius, but he was always The People's Champion.

    The last 2 were flukes, but the one with 5 cushions, he for sure played that.

    THIS is how you play snooker.

    He is the only player that just absolutely Hammers the Q-ball on every shot, there is no slow n easy with Higgins

    We just marvel at the shots..
    Great reaction.

    Gently into the centre pocket.
    Of course, here it's hit as hard as possible, have it get airborne, roll along the rail and drop gently into the centre pocket.
    Alex Higgins was a star.

    The one of the bumper was a fluke, the red was supposed to go in the left middle pocket

    One thing for sure, there will NEVER be another!

      There couldn't be, his style of play would be too suboptimal to be competitive these days. It's almost like professional players have gotten too good to be fun.

    Hello mate, so glad to see your enthusiasm about snooker. Try this one, it's Dennis Taylor doing his TRICK SHOT routine, enjoy buddy 😁

    Alex ' Hurricane ' Higgins, a legend ! Edit : That last shot was nuts !!

    • @MarkMoylan
      @MarkMoylan Před 18 dny +2

      It was good but not right

      My favorite shot ever in a snooker competition.

  • @scottirvine121

    Love you’re getting this but some of these shots real genius is the angle he gets the white to come off the cushion, watch….it’s not a natural angle and he hits the white with the right pace and cue position on the ball so the white comes back on itself spinning

  • @LyndaHurstwaite
    @LyndaHurstwaite Před 13 dny +1

    I think he could just see everything way ahead of everyone else .

  • @LyndaHurstwaite
    @LyndaHurstwaite Před 13 dny

    He’s was incredible - I remember watching with my grandpa . It was a miracle he could even hold the cue let alone be world number 1 .

    Hey JP👍nothing better than a JP snooker reaction,great stuff mate. I like your terminology,bumper for cushion🤣great reaction to the Hurricane ✌️

    The shot at about 6:05 was part of a doubles match. (Whatever happened to pro doubles matches..?)
    Higgins was partnered with White (presumably Jimmy). Now *there's* a scary pairing...

    I stopped watching Snooker After Alex Higgins, it lost it's real maverick entertainment value, miss those days.. also, probably been mentioned before but imagine watching on a black and white tv like I used to as a kid in my bedroom!! Interesting... (Shropshire UK here btw, do like your reactions, thank you for bringing back some memories!)
