Japanese snookerhero

[eddymondo]

Thanks to this guy, if I ever find myself in any of these situations in pool, I know exactly which shot to select.

[NAMTRIP]

[emotions07]

[jpjames1]

To the untrained eye trick shots seem amazing. The balls are set up all u gotta do is hit it. Anyone that can hit the white with enough power can do it

[sayid1206]

untrained eye (all these japanese people in the audience) lol

[tukune3go]

@sayid1206

[supercrazyandy]

We're all living in Amerika.Coca cola,Wonderbra.Vunderbar!

[jimford85]

Shame its so Americanized with the numbers on the balls, blue tables and a 'snooker glove', just looks tacky. And yeah, these aren't 'snooker' trick shots.

[nadjib05]

GREATTT

[multipurposetool]

To perform all these tricks to a paying live audience...he must have practiced for like 20+ years

[SIMBASIL]

the best player in the world

[brandoH85]

No. Possibly the best trick shot player though.

[Razorwolf95]

omg so cool video. And nice snooker

[manbin]

this is pool man...

anyway is cool!!

[breytex]

4:35 - omg, nen stopball kann ich auch spielen -_-

[beklopten]

OH MY GOD! MAGIC! :D

[v3rtical]

Well, very nice effect, but it isn't snooker.

[Rokokoon]

Yeah "magic" :D Everybody can make those shots if just practise every single day

[GeneralZewro]

Magic

[Forsa95]

He is good, really good :O

[ecfpro]

wah

[phezza]

just like magic!

[cybitz159]

He's good but snooker don't come into it. Its pool.

[789321564abc]

But i remember to say it is entertaining.

[789321564abc]

I can`t believe that.That`s a trick,it`s not

really.I`m sure.

[gambler000]

WOW 6:06 is roksaburo Michiba the original Iron chef japanese

[MrAshLloyd]

You think thats good check ppooler artisic pool

[thebugish]

[tvplaya007]

sorry jimmy white.u fucking bell

[GeoJoe1000]

Hey no ones perfect jstMichael especially bastards like you.

[yui4me]

Lol why do you guys rate GeoJoe1000 down?? are you guys stupid? lol

[GeoJoe1000]

Thank you. I'm glad you understand. Everybody misses sometimes.

[Auron710]

Of course every1 misses! the people that thumbs downed ur comment are idiots! I play a hell of a lot of pool (and speak quite a bit of japanese) and that was awesome! Very good

[traceur1995]

really agree with u guys!

[jstMichael]

LOL @ 5:51 EPIC FAIL!!!, NO EXCUSES FOR A PERSON WHO HAS WASTED 10 YEARS OF HIS LIFE JUST FOR THIS SHOW. but otherwise it was pretty good. better than me, still that epic fail is unnaceptable

[dabestracedriver2k8]

3:16 was the sickest shot iv'e seen so far

[ForeverMu5ic]

You just have to put the balls in the spot, and shot at the same spot everytime. Have to pratice the aim and strength only. Nothing special

[ivo6ft10in]

Great,also chek watch?v=y4Fz4gQL7rY

[sepplizardking]

i mean that looks just too good to be true...

[sepplizardking]

looks kinda fake but if it´s true

just unbelivable

[goldenaxe1973]

You just KNEW I he didnt make that last trick He wouldnt live it down.

[hovador]

fuck him

[yayakama]

that guy must be some evil japanese robot or something!!

[johnpaul25x]

Good stuff,they should get him to the crucible for tha annual trickshot championship, he might even beat that hungarian guy who wins every year!

[Thuira]

ooezkjshde dede aeukrg

[iflt5058]

He is actor.

he does different challenge every year on TV show.

[fayad65]

thats not snooker, thats pool. i like this man not bad but their is proficinal more than him.. ;)

[leos147]

taht's pool not snooker, a snooker table is 12 ft long

[DualThunder]

theyre good trick shots... but all they require is the calculation of all the angles. Once you set the balls into position anyone can just hit that white ball. Good for showing off, but really not much skill is required.

[07dumbell]

FAKE at 3:33 the red ball stops then starts going again

[Andy3666]

It just looks like it, because the ball is rolling away from the camera...

[daichapman]

Jealous, Jealous, Jealous. Those guys are arseholes, thats the best trick shots i have ever seen likes!

[clareleeipkis]

gee its a shame its so easy or you'd have hundreds of people watching you do 'easy' tricks and hundreds of youtube videos right juuonse? if its so easy why have you bothered to watch these videos, admit it and get over yourself

[CrushingWaves]

Reading the comments below, does anyone think there might be a few jealous people posting on this video?

[AkiraUema]

Jealous? They're more than jealous!

I doubt if these people can do better than that.

[joaodoggy]

very coooooooooooooooooooooool

i wanna do that things hehehe XD

[hansoncwl]

Nothing to be proud of Japanese...

[DarksAngelsof40k]

if i only i had a penny for every time i tried to do sumfin like this...

[pulg1992]

fake...fake...fakeee...

[plushSPION]

i never bet whith this guy never

[juuonse]

And if u pay attention to the hand holding the cue u can see that this fella really is not a pool player. The hand keeps shifting back n forth SIDEWAYS! Not good...n his stance is horrible :D...Anyway, jump shot's were nice. But of those I have to point out that the table cloth (surface material) and the tip of the cue (if for example rubber) can make it a lot easier.

[juuonse]

aight, those are rather simple tricks. only the jump shots require skill, but who knows how many time he tried them before getting it? all we see is edited footage. But like i said, most of the tricks are only about positioning the balls right. Once that's done/planned, there's nothing more to do.

[tolko666]

fuk off this guy rokks ass

[shang72]

yah, most of them are set ups, plants. NO big deal

[solitaire360]

this guy has too much time on his hands....he needs to get laid

[dryokoi]

this guy is japanese actor "masaaki sakai", famous for "Monkey magic (Saiyūki)".

[CortexContusion]

most of the shots arn't very hard if you set them up right...the masse and jumping the cue off the object ball are trickier...but nothing amazing....there are much better trick shot artists around...also some really amazing 3 cushion billiard trickshot guys too

[tnduyminh]

Nah, set up shots. It is a nice performance, but I prefer watching some strokes. If anyone thinks the guy in the clip are god of pool, you should start playing real pool.

[skullmanic]

gotta admit 3:23 looked nice but i could do a flying shot from far away in a real game, I KNOW I KNOW in some clubs its not legal to do flyin/jumping shots but anyways i practice em

[d3ll3r1um]

that`s pretty coll...very nice stuff

[KoTowaty]

its not snooker... it is pool ;] but nice done ha

[bosnaplaya21]

that´s really cool

[DLPBurke]

How did you manage to get an american pool table mixed up with a snooker table?

[skullmanic]

srry to ask this but i dont understand wut u mean with snooker could u PLZ explain, i know pool but not snooker

[Bozebo]

thats not snooker you idiot

[Arcadiah]

nice :DD this guy is a legend :DD

lol @ 1.54

[ozeim]

I'll say not that special.

[skullmanic]

im with u i had seen far way younger person doing better stuff on a real game, i mean wasnt that called magic shot or soemthing like that were they say wut they going to do, but rely that wasnt special at all, u dont even need precision to do this u only need to put the balls in the correct way, i would like to play against him, oh BTW i was born on a pool table

[lazymuthafukka]

japanese girls are HOT~~~~~~~

[MelvinMcB]

Donders het is echt vet.

Damn, its really cool

[ckk13]

(Reply) (Spam)

guy this is fake! this guy cant even hold the cue right ( well is abit right , but mostly trick shots has to hold the cue very good and steady ) and why dont u guys watch back how the old man hold the cue and how he start to shoot .

[ckk13]

guy this is fake! this guy cant even hold the cue right ( well is abit right , but mostly trick shots has to hold the cue very good and steady ) and why dont u guys watch back how the old man hold the guy and how he start to shoot .

[Bozebo]

well... that one with the 2 beerbottles is totally definately fake, at least, they are surely using rigged balls because 2 spheres cannot ever ever ever balance on top of each other. And if that is fake, chances are the rest were too, or at least set up so he just had to get the angle right.. The difficulty is arranging the trick properly... And the way he held his cue was fine.

[BestBuddy16]

very funny u stupid.if you don't have idea about pool it's not my problem

[hassaninDhouse]

they must of got every snooker table in japan

[BestBuddy16]

look at three minutes and u will understand it s fake.the red ball when falls the bottle has no power but it reaches the middle pocket.dont think that its diff to understand.100% FAKE

[hassaninDhouse]

its called gravity

[DCentThiNgii]

how is it fake...

its real

[Lovesfemalebottomz]

It is 100% fake. The player's real name is Sakai Masaaki and he is a big tv star in Japan and is perhaps most famous for playing the title role in the hit 70's tv show, Monkey.

[Incisionator]

looks nice

[ferris5150]

littletimm94, if its fake tell me how he does it?

[Tchellone]

O Véio é Simplesmente INCRÍVEL !!!!

[snookermama]

no way, no fake just hours and hours of trining. great trick shots.

[LittleTimmy94]

its all fake

[y1985]

it's not snooker nor pool

it's tricks shot - -"

[BoyceyGanglionz]

Fantastic stuff.

[sKyerxD]

vai pa casa chinoca

[ritson2k7]

[djleo147]

It's 9 ball - American pool

[aminmet]

this is sure pool not snooker.

[arthurkhoo82]

[matilibrandi1]

qe trolo este japones

[milpath57]

Genetic waste? Huh? You think whites are always superior to colored races? Do you know that these genetic wastes earn money 10 times as much as you, poor irish.

[tedday123]

hes good but lets see him play an ACTUAL game of snooker

[kekuhikan]

cool oyaji!!

[dollarm360]

Thats pure talent YOU IDIOT. And remember thats a live show

[valentinTM]

this is NOT snooker...and most of the tricks ar easy,pure practice...no game-cnowledge,no talent...just pure practice...a true idiot

[lumpy42069]

hmmm...don't ever play against this character or ever think about betting him on a game....

[Spazymodo]

ermm yeh earth to totallydutch this is pool u wanger

[doggadean]

Very impressive. Mind you, it still doesn't excuse what they did in the 2nd World War.

[hellsing66696]

did you seriously just say that, we dropped two atomic bombs on them i dunno.

[milpath57]

Any civilized ppl cannot have dropped two A-bombs and evaporated babies and ladies and old ppl who had done nothing wrong. America then was occupied by evil ppl who have no remorse at doing that.

[JesusJChrist]

I agree with you, partially, well actually entirely, technically the country did something wrong not the civilians and yes the Americans were, I wouldn't say evil, I would just say stupid.

[Waaghs]

Not Snooker. Not cool. Lame indeed.

[Chuckie2k7]

this is shit

and its not even snooker..

LOL

[hadjy]

this dude is a snooker samurai

[BClub]

= =I think he is not the best and many people can do better then him

[leejunfan777]

= =I think your comment is not the best and many people can do better than you

[milpath57]

This video's title is wrong. He is not pro. He is a famous comedian. This is a kind of show for a New Year's festival, showing that he aquired new tech.

[hoodedhootershookers]

NOOOOOOOO TEH GLASS FALL OWN!!!!

[CellerBomber]

he is a real hero i like those guys like these

[hbkorean]

some of these people talk alot of shit lol... i bet none of you could do what he does

[korhie]

and precise placement is a skill ;)

[Waaghs]

No. Plus someone else has probably done it for him :P

[enixfire]

I'd like to see this guy go against gackt

[Nurde]

this guy is a Japanese TV personality. Pretty impressive for not being his day job.

[mlmosok]

9 out of 10 of thise shots can be done by a "first time shooter" its all in how the balls sit on the table, nothing with skill, only curve abd massé shots demands some skill (and jumpshots)

[loung747]

lets see you do it post a video

[vphilosophy]

jccj123 is right. These are billiard balls. Snooker is played a little differently, with different-colored balls. Snooker is just a variation.

[kobimog]

This man is an amateur of snooker.

He is a TV personality.

[moogmoo]

Swerveing the white backwards like that takes a lot of skill and practice. Try it in a pool or snooker hall and see how hard it is. The final coin in the glass shot also takes ages to master because you have to keep practising to work out how far the coin will travel. Must have taken months to master. Impressive stuff.

[HappyCylops]

You guys say these are all easy... whatever. I'm impressed.

[mowgli225001]

if u want to learn to curve and do many other stuff check out my video on my channel

[Dominiku2]

People saying it was easy obviously only watched the first half

[jccj123]

Its pool, ont snooker, and its not actually that hard!!

[rieinendo]

that is amazing

[B3RyL]

All this tricks are easy to do for proffesionals. The real "champion" is Bogdan Wolkowski. Check his tricks.

[milpath57]

he is not pro, who recently became able to do those things. This show is for a New Year's special TV program that shows famous TV personalities show their newly acquired arts.

[Davisj471]

gay... all easy

[grthwllms]

I'd just love to see you do it.

[firefight67]

[flukes815]

[harrysandhu78]
