I once aspired to shoot billiards. I was told that making the current shot isn’t as important as having a good leave. Amply illustrated, here. At the 65 point mark, you can see he’s feeling it, and in the zone. Noticed that the balls went straight in to the pocket, barely touching the bumpers. Liked the comment at the end: “It’s as if the record was six minutes, and he was out to break it.”

A Canadian, Cliff Thorburn, was the first to do it televised and he did it at the Crucible. the most noteworthy venue.

Some one does hold the record for the lowest total clearance, and it can be found on U-tube.
