Two-minute long trick shot at British sports bar goes viral

The shot, performed at an English sports bar, took all night set up and runs a full two minutes and across nine tables before the pay off. It has been viewed more than 5 million times.

BRISTOL, U.K. (NBC NEWS) - Most people celebrate the new year with a party or a resolution. But, for one English sports bar, it was by pulling off one of the most elaborate trick shots caught on camera.

The people at All Stars Bristol, a "snooker" club in the town of Bristol, spent a whole night setting up the trick. Snooker is a variant on billiards, played on a similar green, felt table.

The trick begins with a ball being putted down a flight of stairs before triggering a sequence of events across nine tables with a golf ball eventually ending up in the hole of an indoor putting mat on top of the club's bar.

The shot has been viewed nearly five million times on its Facebook page since it was uploaded early this week.
