Trickshotting is almost as old as FPS games themselves. From the days of Call of Duty montages, to players clipping their wackiest shots in Fortnite, it’s been a phenomenon in the gaming community for years.
While the term greatest shot of all time gets thrown around a bit, this one shot by HippieHabitat has a real chance at living up to the term.

While the snipe down for the victory was good, the reactions were even better. The afro-donning streamer got up out of his chair laughing.
“Holy shit dude, what the f***,” was all he could muster in celebration, as all words probably left his head after such an incredible shot.
Even people spectating him were in complete disbelief. Player ‘Kylesudds’ saw the shot live while spectating in-game and gasped when it landed. “Are you kidding me? This dude – I clipped it. Oh my god.”

He tried to explain the shot to his friend, which was equally as amusing. “Dude, okay, HippieHabitat was trolling this dude, and he was on a snowboard. He flies up into the air, throws an impulse nade at him, launches him in mid-air and snipes him down with a Barrett 50cal. That dude had no idea what hit him.”
The snipe was spectacular, the setup was impressive, and the reactions were priceless. If the best Fortnite trickshot was ever to be crowned, this shot would need to be in the discussion.
