Lmao I think something most people don't reeee I must be mentally ill.
What a load of bullcrap.
Chess is sport
His mom abandoning him may have had something to do with his downfall, childhood neglect follows a person forever
Is chess players are already insane we don't go, just some of us choose to stop controlling it.
Why does his story start to resemble kanye west?
If a man is this smart……can he be that wrong about the world…..
People are quick to judge but they can't always see what a few rare see
How do you lose the first two but then you come back unbeatable……
Something fishy
"leaving him with no-one to play with, not that he minded all that much he would just play with himself… not like that" LMAO I died
There probably is a jewish heirarchy working behind the shadows with power over US gov. lol bobby fischer def not alone in that belief.
The people with more power than the US gov, aren't beholden to press conferences, they aren't in the spotlight 24/7 and the names of their most powerful are not in the public domain. You would have it the same way if you had that much power.
Top G
Spoiled overthinker. Kanye seems to have caught the same bug.
If you love chess, check out the film “Searching for Bobby Fischer “
Such a sad story
12:51 You're looking for Paul Morphy.
Rap history
Y chess have black and white? Y wasn't it a different colour????????
i love this video so much, i watched it last year and it got me into chess. Ive been playing it ever since and im so thankful!
The queen's gambit
remember that time some guy cheated using anal beads? me neither
i am a jew from israel
VII the chariot. Intentional?
Because they wasted their life and should've played video games or become a doctor instead.
What I got from this video: Bobby Fischer was a fantastic chess player, not-so-fantastic person, and Boris Spassky is a G
Well this guy seems to be the most admirable knob head in history
Thumbnail has to be racist
Sounds like schizophrenia
Just like bobby fishcer I’m always 2 steps ahead…….awesome blog great job watch the doco too
Horns
In this game of life which is similar to a game of chess. Maybe the worlds best chess player had figured out who controls and runs the world 🤔
"the chess speaks for itself"
He didn't go "insane", he just spoke the truth about America's and Israel's crimes against the human race, which are covered up because American media is jewish-owned. Anyone who speaks the truth is deemed an "anti-semite" which in and of itself is a supremacist, racist term since Iran, Iraq, the Arabs AND Palestina are also semitic. But somehow the term "Anti-Semitic" seems to suggest that it only applies when talking shit about Jews, discarding all other semitic people which is the ultimate form of racism.
The record been broke for the youngest us chest champion
It's a well known fact there's a fine margin between genius and insanity most geniuses are a little head fucked
Thoughty2: Bobby was put away in about 15 minutes.
Me: that's still about 14 minutes longer than my longest game lol
I have long believed that when most people are born, they have a limited capacity in their brains. At birth, this is empty because we haven't learned anything yet. As we get older, we have the chance to acquire either sanity or genius. There doesn't seem to be enough room for both. Most of the truly brilliant people throughout history have been more than a little crazy in one way or another.
Passion + Obsession… How he maintained his focus…🤔🤔🤔🔬✨
When Bobby Fischer's plane
Plane plane touches the ground
Plane, plane he'll take those Russian boys
And play them out of town.
The sweetest moment comes at least
The waiting's over,
In shock they stare and cue fanfare.
When Bobby Fischer's plane
Plane, plane touches the ground
Plane, plane he'll take those Russian boys
And play them out of town,
Playing for blood as grandmasters should.
Proof that no matter how smart you are, everyone needs a colon cleanser.
What’s the name of the piece that starts at 6:49” on the video?
Bobby iassure you was NOT insane. That is a lazy and ignorant understanding of his mental state.
I didn't see anything insane. His opinions vary vastly from my own, but that isn't insanity.
The UN prevented people from playing professional chess in Yugoslavia? omg
The reason that man wanted to share a cell with him and only if he was allowed to take a chess board in the cell, is because he wanted to keep playing chess with Bobby Fischer.
He admired Bobby Fischer and thought that the more chess he played with him the more chance he would get to unlock the secret of how Bobby Fischer was so amazing at chess ♟.
And the reason Bobby Fischer was so amazing at chess is because (and I understand many people won’t understand what I’m about to say 🙄) he just knew. He didn’t have to practice hard like other people, as it would literally just come to him.
He was tuning in to a higher level without realising he was. It’s like when you come across a good psychic and they just understand n know thing’s. People don’t understand why or how though. By the way, I don’t know anything about chess at all.
Edit…. Also him joining a cult is such a damn shame. He was obviously looking for answers in the wrong places and people hoodwinked him.
16:01 Spassky was not up 2…. he was up 1. Official numbers be damned… the 2nd game was not played.
in reality…. i am very skeptical whether skill in chess is any sign of a greater intelligence, i have seen many in my lifetime who were not so becoming of this title of intelligence, be very much superior in the "game," than they are in everyday commonsense situations.
Spassky was an awesome person
Mom didn't care until he was good at something
imagine magnus vs bobby
Albes einstein lol
I know everyone hates that guy, but to be completely fair I personally believe magnus carlsen is the world's best chess player. Aside from his numerous world champion titles like classical, blitz, etc. he has the highest rating and is currently aiming for 3000. He is the endgame god and one of the best at calculating several moves ahead. I think there's enough data and information to make that statement.
