Jimmy’s always been the best snooker entertainer there is on the green baize ! We realize he for-fitted becoming world champion for our pleasure , Thankyou mr white , we all love you
I started watching snooker cos of pure entertainment of Jimmy White and still watching pure entertainment of Ronnie O'sullivan. Legends of the game. 2019
fantastic player jimmy ..to me one the greatest sportsman weve ever produced ,,,not for winning but competing,,,most would have crumpled atfer 1 defeat at Worlds let alone 6...this video gives u a glimpse of a guy who entertained and thrill his way into our hearts,,,thanks for the memories jimmy
That shot on the pink to come down for the black even got Kirk Stevens high! And he was already high on coke! Shows what an amazing shot that was... lol
Reminds me why I used to love casually watching snooker games when I was younger and had more time to do so. So much variety of skill and ability. Mesmerising and relaxing game to enjoy watching. Shame I can't manage to sit and spare the time these days for it.
i remember seeing and copying shot 2 as a kid...i pulled it of many times, and thanks to jimmy, i am now the undisputed world champion of snow hill snooker club table 12 - the one they still let you smoke on.
lol. No. lol. Only visited a few times. Was alright from what I remember. But it must be around 11 or 12 years since I last visited when there wasn't a smoking ban.
Go on Jimmy! Most natural striker of the ball (i.e. timing) in the history of the game. No-one has ever been as efficient in terms of getting the maximum action out of the cue ball for the minimum effort...
@Daniel Neville Better than who? Davis? Hendry? I dunno. Maybe. But he actually lost because his bum twitched. Even Hendry said so in an interview. And when he mentioned that fact to Jimmy White himself, he refused to accept it. But it's true. Jimmy was a fantastic player. One of the most gifted ever but he couldn't handle the biggest snooker event of them all. Really sad😟
Damn you stephen hendry, you could have let jimmy win at least 1 final lol. Jimmys compact style and quick pace around the table as well as his cue power earned him an army of fans around the world. Won many titles including the masters, legend...
Pity of the bad image quality. I know Ronnie O'Sullivan can make terrific shots as well, but Jimmy White was not only snooker player, but also an entertainer as well. He loved goofing around with those balls and enjoy the crowds, even if it costed him a frame. So maybe sometimes not a frame, but he did get the FAME...
+gordonjohn Shot six should have been number 2 and shot 3 number 1. I am always baffled when I watch those two shots. Apart from Higgins who else could actually play like this?
By far the greatest snooker player to never win at the Crucible. Too many beers in him by the later frames of the match. What a shame, but still one of the greatest players the world has ever seen.
Jimmy, Dancing Brave, Marvin Hagler. Laurel and Hardy, are all my absolute idols, and would all be round my dinner table, although I'm not sure where Dancing Brave would sit.
Was a kid in 80's/90's when i watched him.. . Never seen a player grace the table like JW and pull the stunts he did with a cue. Shots NO-ONE would contemplate taking he ate for breakfast.
Same. 100%. Jimmy White will forever by my favourite player. His shots were genius. Supreme skill. Not even Ronnie can do that stuff. It's a travesty that Jimmy never became world champion. Choking was his only weakness.
@@josephd.2725Aye ... 👍 If i could meet and have a pint with any person. Jimmy would be up there.... a place with a pool or snooker table even better. Gent of guy.
The tables have rails with so so much life, you can make the ball circle the entire table with little effort. These guys use so much draw and so little follow it amazes; the draw gives them much more control using firm strikes.
+Lord Karnage BB It's also the way the cue ball bounced off the bulk cush in a straight line that even got Kirk excited and Stevens made a 147 in this match too.
Richard Ignatowicz Remember that game well, was a big Jimmy White fan. Absolutely gutted. I've always suspected that Jimmy was coked up to his eyeballs in that game and then he crashed. Hendry relentlessly won frame after frame and Jimmy was shattered. I'd have loved Jimmy to win the world championship, such a brilliant player, exciting, attacking and full of flair. Wasn't to be.
I recall an even worse case when it came down to the final frame, and Jimmy missed a straightforward black (probably due to tension), then Hendry came to the table and cleared up to win 18-17. That was the closest he got to the title
just as i was saying to myself no one even jimmy white himself cant do a better shot than the 2nd one i saw the first shot and where he left the cueball... legendary legend white
For Jimmy's infamous banana shot against Kirk Stevens in No. 6, what side is he applying to the cue ball? Obviously, there's a lot of screw, but which side allows it to come off the bottom cushion the way it did?
Jimmy was soooo good, but he buckled under pressure. So sad, as he could do things with the cue ball other players could only dream about. Very very talented player!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All time great!!!!!

THE MASSE shot number 2 should of been number 1. best shot i'v ever seen
mark taylor i agree the touch to execute that masse is very,very low percentage
@One Ten Thousandth you can try that masse 10 times
see how often you contact the ball...
@@paleshelter4002 Which makes Jimmy'sshot extra special doing it in competition.Best shot ever.
Jimmy's masse shot, if you have seen it type in those words and watch.
@One Ten Thousandth es it is but i meant the full version, he tries another masse shot about 20 seconds later in the same frame.
I think it is fair to say the list of superb shots by Jimmy is endless. What a genius!!!
The cue ball has an unreal, almost supernatural life of its own, willed into position by the skill and mind power of Jimmy. Staggering!
Jimmy’s always been the best snooker entertainer there is on the green baize ! We realize he for-fitted becoming world champion for our pleasure , Thankyou mr white , we all love you
His ability to make the cue go around the table was just sick .
Love Jimmy White . Amazing player.
Jimmy is one of the best to ever play the game.
Just fantastic him and Alex Higgins is the reason snooker is on television then and now
I have to say I have been an avid fan of snooker for 20+ years, and i have never got goosebumps from shots like I just did then WOW Jimmy WOW
Thanks Uploader
His name will never be forgotten aslong as this sport live on, what a phenomenon
I started watching snooker cos of pure entertainment of Jimmy White and still watching pure entertainment of Ronnie O'sullivan. Legends of the game. 2019

Never to be WC and be able to play these shots is an injustice of genius.
That shot on the pink to come down for the black even got Kirk Stevens high! And he was already high on coke! Shows what an amazing shot that was... lol
Amazing shots from the "whirlwig"
Reminds me why I used to love casually watching snooker games when I was younger and had more time to do so. So much variety of skill and ability. Mesmerising and relaxing game to enjoy watching. Shame I can't manage to sit and spare the time these days for it.
Jimmy White is a Badass.
That massé shot might be my favorite shot played in any billiards game, pool, snooker, whatever. What an amazing shot to play under pressure!
i remember seeing and copying shot 2 as a kid...i pulled it of many times, and thanks to jimmy, i am now the undisputed world champion of snow hill snooker club table 12 - the one they still let you smoke on.
Is that in Birmingham?
gordonjohn
indeed it is.
aaahh. I lived in Birmingham for a few years and had the pleasure of visiting that club!
lol. No. lol. Only visited a few times. Was alright from what I remember. But it must be around 11 or 12 years since I last visited when there wasn't a smoking ban.
Go on Jimmy! Most natural striker of the ball (i.e. timing) in the history of the game. No-one has ever been as efficient in terms of getting the maximum action out of the cue ball for the minimum effort...
robertson and ronnie can
Trump too
John Jais trumps got the best golf swing too 😂
So Ronnie and Shaun Murphy don't come close?
Kirk Stevens just had to applaud that shot. AMAZiNG!!!
Kirk Stevens was high as a kite watching that shot! Forget the cocaine lol
One of the Best.
my respect.
Amazing!
True legend in always! :-)
Shot 3 just makes him look like a magician.
The music is awesome!!
And the whirlwind, is still blowing strong, to this day
It was such a shame he couldn't handle the biggest occasion of all. Bottle went every time.
@Daniel Neville Better than who? Davis? Hendry? I dunno. Maybe. But he actually lost because his bum twitched. Even Hendry said so in an interview. And when he mentioned that fact to Jimmy White himself, he refused to accept it. But it's true. Jimmy was a fantastic player.

what an absolutely great tune
jimmy cliff - i can see clearly now the rain is gone
him and Ronnie. both are just raw talent and the players that make the young pick up a cue. superb
I'm still ur number 1 fans... year 2019
The real People's champ. Just thinking of a shot like number 2 in a competitive tournament takes a lot of balls and genius
No. 7 - "Where's the cue ball going?"
Great music
My hero growing up
Damn you stephen hendry, you could have let jimmy win at least 1 final lol. Jimmys compact style and quick pace around the table as well as his cue power earned him an army of fans around the world. Won many titles including the masters, legend...
One final stephen hendry thought he was going to lose, then Jimmy White choked hard.
Yeung KF - To be fair Hendry never missed on day 2
Jimmy and Ronnie are my favourite players to watch playing snooker.
The snooker on the pink in 86 Mercantile Final is the best shot he ever played!
great number 1. ive never seen that one. wow
I just wanna get down and funky to that music!!
Jimmy will still be talked about in 50 years from now and personally i would pay to just watch him chalk his cue a real magician of the baize
Pity of the bad image quality.
I know Ronnie O'Sullivan can make terrific shots as well, but Jimmy White was not only snooker player, but also an entertainer as well. He loved goofing around with those balls and enjoy the crowds, even if it costed him a frame. So maybe sometimes not a frame, but he did get the FAME...
I still can’t believe how incredible number 2 was.
I loved the classic JW ghost shot
My favourite
The banana on shot number 3... amazing!
+gordonjohn Shot six should have been number 2 and shot 3 number 1. I am always baffled when I watch those two shots. Apart from Higgins who else could actually play like this?
Number 7 should be higher. To get that much screw back with so much distance between cue and object balls is insane.
csb73 I don't think it's that difficult since it's in an angle and screw with a left side will take it back making use of the rail...
masse shot was excellent
By far the greatest snooker player to never win at the Crucible. Too many beers in him by the later frames of the match. What a shame, but still one of the greatest players the world has ever seen.

EL NUMERO DOS ES EL MEJOR TIRO DE TODOS LOS TIEMPOS, NADIE LO PODRÁ REPETIR JAMAS
Yeah, very nice shot 4. My friend showed me that video :)
Played him in a exhibition few years ago. I wad quite surprised I had a couple of shots. 1 was the break the other was at the bar!
King white luv the man big up..
Pure magic.
Shot on the brown is the best Shot ever made truly magnificent😅
Man, Jimmy has some amazing spin ability
The whirlwindest player of all times
to me..the best shot of all times is When you've got LUCKY ball of shot in hardly situation..and that will make your opponent so much anger..
Bril! Nuff said!. 🙂
Getting out of the apparent snooker and making contact with the brown ball was crazy good.
Jimmy 1/2/3/.. cant find the words, more than immaculate
Genius
I don't think any player on the snooker tour could play the masse shot. Unbelievable shot.
When u know all the shots that would get featured. But still see the video
Super jimmmmm
great
Cue ball.
"Where shall...?"
Jimmy,
"Yes"
😂😂
That pink against kirk stevens made shit out of the laws of physics
It followed the laws of physics. But Jimmy was judge, jury and executioner!
And Kirk Stevens loved it. It's great to see an opponent appreciate the other player's ability. There is so much sport in snooker.
Unfortunately, this trend has died out. If you look at the new generation, snooker isn't what it used to be back in the day.
He hit with bottom right hand side. It was the right hand side that checked it of the bottom cushion. The masse should have been number one.
My friend plays like this, screwback on everything even when you need to follow through. It's just so much more fun
nice superb plyear jimmy wight
The tables have rails with so so much life, you can make the ball circle the entire table with little effort. These guys use so much draw and so little follow it amazes; the draw gives them much more control using firm strikes.
Watch the replay of the masse shot. Love the way he walks off just before the cueball hits the brown
number 6 was pretty good. i love draw shot like that where it curves after contact they look great when performed.
+Lord Karnage BB It's also the way the cue ball bounced off the bulk cush in a straight line that even got Kirk excited and Stevens made a 147 in this match too.
Pool itself im already half dead perform spin shots, somemore spin shots on snookers... Jimmy white, salute to you!
Such a shame he never won the title always the runner up. He really should of won against Hendry when he was 14-8 up.
+Richard Ignatowicz
True... He won't get a chance like that again...ever
Richard Ignatowicz Remember that game well, was a big Jimmy White fan. Absolutely gutted. I've always suspected that Jimmy was coked up to his eyeballs in that game and then he crashed. Hendry relentlessly won frame after frame and Jimmy was shattered. I'd have loved Jimmy to win the world championship, such a brilliant player, exciting, attacking and full of flair. Wasn't to be.

yep but was hell of a lot of pressure on that, the other final when he was 14,8 jimmy should have seen that out, no excuses. criminal.
Richard Ignatowicz The reason, Hendry king of kings.
This is the funkiest snooker video ever
I very much appreciate the background music, basically anything else than pompous orchestral Ronnie fanboy video music is appreciated... very much.
Number 3; my friends and I spent ages the next day trying to recreate that. Not easy on a club table.
He's such a geezer!
A FANTASTIC snooker player and thrilling to watch
#3 was insane
Number 2 is the best shot I’ve ever seen. Sorry you can’t beat that
Jimmy, the very Best snooker player ever...
The action off the yellow on shot number 3 was too sick to even try and describe.
He was an artist
Wish it was the 90's for ever
There is always only one Jimmy white. A living legend.
I've played the number 2 shot and before I done it is said Jimmy special and it worked he's to good at them shots
just as i was saying to myself no one even jimmy white himself cant do a better shot than the 2nd one i saw the first shot and where he left the cueball... legendary legend white
loved that music, perfectly encapsulated that era of snooker with jimmy white, for me
For Jimmy's infamous banana shot against Kirk Stevens in No. 6, what side is he applying to the cue ball? Obviously, there's a lot of screw, but which side allows it to come off the bottom cushion the way it did?
Jimmy. Alex. Judd. And I dunno if anyone remembers Steve James the postman. Love these guys.
#3 wowzers
Most entertaining player of all time.
number 3 wow
Number 6 pure genius
Gênio.
Jimmy was soooo good, but he buckled under pressure. So sad, as he could do things with the cue ball other players could only dream about. Very very talented player!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All time great!!!!!
The Jimmy shot on my channel was perhaps the most amazing
He knows his billiards!
White, White sunshiny day :D
