  • Billiard Trick Shot: "The Great Escape"

    Back to Pool Trick Shots Videos main page

    "The Great Escape" billiard trick shot, involves a triangle - just like the "bermuda triangle pool trick shot" - when one colored ball is imprisoned inside the triangle. The trick shots champion Vincent Facquet uses a rack, the triangle used to gather the billiard balls in the start of every billiard game, to amplify the effect of the trick. In the video, you can see Facquet jumps the cue ball into the triangle and then jumps both the cue ball and the red ball out of the rack and into the pocket at the other side of the table.

    At the start of this billiard trick shot, the bottom of the red ball touches the base of the triangle about 20 inches away from the corner pocket with the cue ball in between them. To make the red ball into the opposite corner pocket in a single shot, Vincent Facquet performs two jump shots: first to hit the red ball and the second to escape both balls from inside the rack. The red ball, eventually, falls into the corner pocket.
