VIDEO: Pa. coach sinks shot going backwards down slide
It was a once-in-a-lifetime shot for this coach from the Poconos.

Shooting from the paint? How about shooting while going backwards down a pool slide!

A girls' basketball coach from the Poconos nailed an incredible basketball shot while at a pool on Thursday.

Stacy Perryman, who coaches at Pocono Mountain West High School, was visiting with her college friends in South Carolina on Thursday when they pulled off this stunning feat.

The video starts with her friend, Julianne Geist-Foster, jumping on a trampoline and passing the ball while flipping in mid-air!

The ball reaches Jill Bittner on the deck, who completes a behind-the-back pass to Perryman, who was waiting on top of the slide.

Perryman then slides down backwards and shoots the ball just before hitting the water.

The camera follows the ball through the air - and as the ball goes right through the basket!

She told 6abc.com, "I didn't see it because I went under the water, but when I came up I heard them cheering. I said, 'Did it go in?'"

And if that shot wasn't enough of a shocker, how about this: This shot was made on their very first attempt!

Perryman said, "It took us longer to come up with something to do!"
