Parker's trick shot isnt actually a trick shot because thats his normal way to throw first shot. I could do this too, adding chairs so that i could only throw the way i always throw. Nothing special.
In the early 80's I set up two additional sets of pins in front of a normal rack, all spaced normally. I knocked down all 30 with one shot.........on my first try. Give this a try and let me know if you can do it, and if so how many tries it took you. (Hey Norm something for you to do in retirement) ;)
I tried bowling a couple of years ago. Unfortunately I sustained a groinial injury during ball delivery, and had to forfeit the match due to pain and limping action. My girlfriend laughed at me because I was groinial injured, and she left with the other bowler.
Belmo just gets lucky, whereas Duke uses skill every time. Belmo couldn't do any of his tricks even semi-consistently. Duke can throw a strike out of a towel at least half the time. That's why he's a BOSS. Belmo wishes he had form and technique like the OGs do. DUUUUUUUUUUUKE
@@dustingarwood6180 It's not skill if it happens by accident, duh. On the first, he was TRYING to hit the 7 pin with one ball and the 10 with the other. He whiffed on the 10 pin but the 7 shot out of the pit and into the 10, which was in no way what he was trying to do. AKA he got lucky. On the second, he only needs to hit the small balls to cause a very designed and easy chain reaction, which he still messed up and got a random bounce from the last red ball to trip the 5 pin late, which was not his plan. So also lucky. No one is denying that Belmo will be in the hall (or that you're in love with him), but this wasn't an all time great trick shot, or even a good one.
@@dustingarwood6180 It's a designed chain reaction that is easy if you just hit the first ball. But more importantly, he was supposed to strike with the bowling ball, which he didn't, but an errant pool ball came in and knocked the 5 pin late. If he had called THAT shot, I'd be slightly more impressed. But he missed the shot he was supposed to hit and got a very lucky break from the pool ball. So, also lucky.
