The number of palls pocketed, or not, has no effect on the outcome at the end of the game.
Sinking the Eight Ball was created in 1998.

In scratch pool, players must pocket all their balls without scratching (sinking the cue ball) and then sink the 8-ball to win. Fouls result in a loss of turn or ball in hand for the opponent.

If a single magnetic ball is swallowed, it may pass through the digestive system without causing harm. However, if the magnetic ball is strong and attracts to another object in the digestive tract, it could cause a blockage or tissue damage, requiring medical intervention to remove it. It is important to seek medical attention if a magnetic ball is swallowed to prevent complications.
The expression comes from the pool-table. In some forms of pool, sinking or even touching the eight-ball is tabu except in end play. To be "behind the eight ball" is to be unable to play without disturbing the eight-ball, and thus the expression means "unable to do anything without getting in trouble."
The main forces acting on a ball sinking in water are gravity, buoyancy, and drag. Gravity pulls the ball downward, buoyancy pushes the ball upward due to water displacement, and drag resists the ball's motion through the water, slowing it down.

Yes. When playing 9 ball, no numbered ball has any significance except the 9 ball. Although the 9 ball is often pocketed by means of a combination shot, sinking all numbered balls in order is not uncommon. This requres that the 8 ball be struck and even pocketed if it is the lowest numbered ball on the table.
If you scratch without hitting the 8 ball in a game of pool, it is considered a foul. This means that your opponent gets ball in hand, allowing them to place the cue ball anywhere on the table for their next shot.
The odds of sinking the 8 ball on the break in a standard game of pool are typically around 1 in 40. To calculate the odds of sinking it twice in a row, you would multiply the probability of sinking it once (1/40) by itself, resulting in a probability of approximately 1 in 1,600. This means that the chances of sinking the 8 ball on the break twice in a row are quite low.
