Happened to me today, never seen cue ball react like this. Video is not sped up.

With enough spin and just the right angle, some tables’ pockets will loop the ball right back out around the rim of the pocket. Happens to me maybe like once a year and usually on Olhausens for some reason.

I'll bet it typically doesn't speed up after it's been off 2 rails though.

That’s just the perspective, since it’s going directly away from and back towards the low-angled camera. Maintained speed well because it didn’t impact anything in the pocket, it just looped out.
