Found this identity by accident

There may be a more specific name for this formulae, but it follows almost immediately from Gauss' Formulae: $$_2F_1(a,b;c;1)=\frac{\Gamma(c)\Gamma(c-a-b)}{\Gamma(c-a)\Gamma(c-b)}$$ where $_2F_1$ denotes the Hypergeometric function. To see this, note that we have that by the power-series definition for $_2F_1$, we have that: $$\lim_{q\to 0}\frac{1}{q}(_2F_1(q,1;x+1;1)-1)=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}\frac{(n-1)!}{\prod_{k=1}^{n}(x+k)}$$ On the other hand we have that: $$\frac{\Gamma(x+1)\Gamma(x-q)}{\Gamma(x)\Gamma(x+1-q)}=\frac{x}{x-q}$$ and it is clear that: $$\lim_{q\to 0}\frac{1}{q}(\frac{x}{x-q}-1)=\frac{1}{x}$$ Putting the sides together you get your identity.
