Epic on so many fronts. Skill, break building, missed a cannon towards the end but recovered and got it the second time. Speed. Most people won't even achieve a 147 break in their life. Let alone a 10minute one. Pure joy to watch, and a great set up you have there.
Can the next person to give a thumbs down please explain how you ended up hating a video titled "147 from a headcam" which then went to show you a 147 from a headcam? Many thanks
My thoughts exactly. I've been scrolling down and can't see any negative comments, yet 200 dislikes. These people clicked on a video titled Snooker Headcam 147... they saw exactly that... what's to dislike about it??? People are weird.
Jealousy. A lot of people of insecure so they will downvote or insult in comments etc. to make them feel better about their miserable selves. 2018 in a nutshell. Fantastic break btw.
Some people down vote every video they come across, regardless of whether or not they enjoyed it. Many have no real reason for this other than trying to avoid being the same as others. Basically, if they come in and see a video with 99% likes, well, they don't want to be in the 99%, so they down vote even if the genuinely enjoyed the content. No content is safe and no content with a decently sized audience will ever manage a 100% positive rating. People just suck like that.
That my friend, was wonderful. A nice smooth stroke on every shot. Something alien to my game. Snooker is a joy to watch when played as beautifully as this ;)
Smug caucasoid more like when Ronnie o Sullivan plays when he was on the second last red Ronnie would have finished cause he is very fast and very good but this is sensational aswell
nicbarrow Cheers! My cueing might've been slightly dodgy on some shots as I fell whilst out on a run earlier today and grazed my hand, so was only really gripping the cue with two fingers!
The Snooker Gym great cuing bro i want to ask one question that whenever i hit the cue ball in the center i always get a bit of a right hand side xan you help me with some suggestion plz
This is outstanding. I heard years ago that a lot of expert snooker players regularly get 147s in practice. Now I can believe it! Hope u get recognition on the professional circuit one day. You deserve it sir!!
Brilliant cuing brilliant snooker. I am confused on why you would dislike, the isn’t 5 mid roll ads or time wasting to get past 10 mins this guy is a pure hearted snooker player uploading videos for the snooker lovers. Well done don’t stop any time soon
Thought there was actually a spur to put it ...... and after that you've still got to play th be back again from where ever. Hmmmm .....(more credit perhaps as I certainly couldn't do close)
I liked hearing the footsteps. That’s what my heart would have sounded like when I came to the realization that I could actually achieve it in this take. Love it!
I don't even like snooker and stumbled upon this so decided to watch "a few mins" of this out of sheer boredom. I actually watched untill the end while gobsmacked at how easy you made that look. Amazing.
Outstanding. A pleasure to watch. You just scored a maximum and your first thought was to get the camera off. I was waiting on the celebration. I would have been going mental.
I love your big tables and nice big playing room. Awesome how you not only get the balls in, but get the white ball to come back to where you want it for the next shot. Fabulous, and a joy to watch!
Absolutely fantastic and the crowd at home goes wild 😊 Thank you for this video, it is perhaps the most educational document I have seen on the sport because we can see how you are hitting the balls. The eighth Black was a brilliant shot to reclaim position. Thank you again 👍
The way u combined all those spins to set yourself up for the next shot is incredible and great form as well. Keep up the good work man. I’ve been playing pool for about 7 months now u inspired me to train even harder
You go and tell your friends I got a maximum break last night and they are like no fucking way man and you have it recorded....well done because this is incredibly impressive.
2:56 I've played alot. Like aloooooooooooooooooooooot. Never in my entire life wud i have played this. Its a tough spot. But this is just not on man! Awkward bridging, 99% u wud push, No view of the pocket. And playing towards bulk. This is crazy. *take a bow*
Quite easy... Just aim neede and no force cuz there is no distance between balls.. still a good shot neverthless. But hard to imagine that for someone who have played a looooooooooooooot of snooker it would seem a difficult shot. 🤦
Excellent video, thank you! The headcam makes it a very useful teaching video, because you can really see the point of contact on the white ball this way.
@@Eglehalo4 i mean he is doing the comfort of his own home , not in a pro table against a another pro, he did the break to suit his shot , how ever in ronniee case anotherbpro did the break so he wouldnt be able tonget any pot , feel the difference
So much better then a tv broadcast. This puts the difficulty so much more into perspective. Wish I could play this good. Thank you for this amazing video by far the best snooker clip I've seen!
Great game..its more commendable as you are playing wearing the camera on ur face and placing the ball back by ur own still concentrated on ur pots perfectly..You are a champion bro✌👍
Thanks For providing 147 from headcam But that's make huge difference when you are playing in front of everyone on professional snooker table and when you are playing at home on your snooker table
That was truely awesum,not a single shot stuck hard,all just rolled in to the pocket at perfect speed.the last split on the reds was excellent.You should be on telly.
butters1913 the difference between professional players and club/amateur players is the consistency in their level of play, let any of the top 15 players loose on a table on their own and you’d have a maximum in no time, and most likely more than 1,however this player could’ve been trying to achieve this for weeks perhaps months before finally completing a maximum break.
@@extraordinizing4934 Good points and it's been well rounded as well. No good being able to sink any ball at will from a standard break but not have strategy or good defense game. That was incredible though, dont want to guess how many hours practice
Amazing!! I always wondered how professionals play and you come up with superb idea for perfect demo. you massively encourage me after years of disappointment 😩.. Thank you soo much for this👏👏🙏
Very impressive! Well done, sir. Enjoyed that very much. It's as close to a 147 as I'm ever going to get. Please don't let the internet haters bother you. There are always negative eejits out there. Best of luck as you work towards becoming a pro.
hats off man to that clearance with you picking the colors out easily takes 3min out of the total.. well done mate that was probably in the top fastest 147's that I know of.
I firmly believe that your level has exceeded 99% of snooker players on the earth. There is nothing too difficult in this frame, but your performance is still very good
reminds me of my break last week, I was on my way to a 147, missed the second red...
Iman Haji had the same problem. I was also 4-0 down when I missed the reds on the break. :-)
awesome...
CJZ
Lmao
ha ha ha ha ha ha
I could be locked in a room with a table for 10 years n never get a 50 break. Such a skillful game. This clearance is beautiful mate.
Honestly i'd say you'd see a 147 within the first year
Spot on, you’d die after 3 weeks having no food or water
evergreenpenguin yes this is true

That was pure class. 147 is a difficult task. You Sir, have made that easy.
In the time you completed this break Peter Ebdon would still be on the third red
And Ronnie O'Sullivan would have been on his third 147.
I just mean he is really fast, no offence to your amazing break.

World class.

Admittedly he did play the shot well but its not necessarily that difficult of a shot.
2:38 is a lot more difficult.
He missed the cannon on the previous shot and I was like, "Oh boy..."

I both hate and love how easy you make this look! Great job
with the pots like this u don't need anything else. superb work, i wish! i can see you playing in international level. hats off ❤
awesome gameplay..
i love the way you created angles without any look at the ball..
good work man.. thumbs up
Very impressive, loved the shot off the black to break open the remaining 3 reds
You are brilliant, I can only wish to play this well.
147.. much applauds to you and huge congrats.. your headcam is straight on point too.. love it..

That was great, just shows how soft you need to strike the ball on pro tables!
Wow! That was awesome! A few times I thought it must break down but you did it.
Imagine potting the cue ball at the end.
Nice work man !! Im on my way to 147 too, still got 146 to go...

This is the first video I've seen that conveys the epic scale of a snooker table.
I celebrated his 147 and gave him a good applause, he switched off his camera 😂
It was a pleasure to watch. Thank you
Well done, cool as a cucumber! 👍
such a wonderful clearance, hope you can next share some training videos

I was surprised to see no one was going crazy over chalking. Great POV.
imagine if he forgot to press record
LoL
Nicely done sir! much respect.
My highest break of 32 felt like a 147! 😂😂😂

First like from Selby
Dont forget KEN DOHERTY X'D

Great talent, thanks for the video,
Superb, great concentration respotting your own balls and wearing a head cam, respect my man!!
Watching stuff like this makes me think Snooker is easy. Then I go try it and make a days best break of 18. I wish I could play like this.
What a shot that was for the red in the middle stun safely for the black fantastic shot mate... some proper snooker there well played
3:06 very tough shot. Nice Break.
Beautifully done. A wonderful stroke.
Very nice. Got motion sickness watching this on 60fps. Next time can you annotate your shots; Where you striking the ball? 3/4 ball shots, etc.
If that was me I'd find out that I forget to turn the headcam on.
I wish i had a snooker table, i would play it 24 hours per day
But can you beat my highscore of 148?
Lovely break, and this was extremely relaxing
Idk why but your cue looks too natural to me
