And commentator Wayne Mardle exclaimed “even they’re finding it funny” – as the world’s two finest players left viewers awed.
Humphries wore the biggest grin of all – when he fell victim to the most brutal leg of all.
The pair were level at 3-3 when they whipped Mardle into frenzy by trading three 180s… before Littler checked out on 144.
The Sky Sports pundit raved: “Are you’re kidding me! Are you’re kidding me! This is ridiculous. This is an absolute joke. Even they are finding it funny!”
Poor Humphries outscored the Nuke by nine maximums to five – but still lost.
But both were long ago assured a place in the Prem playoff finals at the O2 Arena in London on May 23.
One fan responded to their quarter-final by insisting: “Has to be the highest level this sport has ever seen.”
Another posted: “That wasn’t darts, that was pure theatre! Littler vs Humphries gave us a modern classic.”
