Can anyone explain how Magnus could’ve possibly known the Annand/ Zapata game after only 4 moves? Maybe that wasn’t the most conventional of opening theory but hasn’t that been played hundreds if not thousands of times?
All fun and games until he preguesses the next one
Can he beat the computer ?
Tf is this plot armor😭
Magnus Studied Anand extensively
"needed some serious hints" 💀
is he human? jesus christ that is not normal
99.99% people cannot remember even 5 positions from middle game or end game which they played fews hours back…how come he remembers all the game….i believe he is Tesla of chess…
I think it’s rigged somehow or pure luck a awful large number of games were played the same way like the way they played in biel 1988 like he somehow knew who it was after 4 moves…and then paused to remember the year which I think is easier to remember then the game itself but idk imop 😅
If I were going to play him and knew nothing about him but was shown this video, my first move would be so easy – 1./ Resigns.
Anal beads wouldnt help you here
0:34 Giving Kasparov Azerbajani flag is the most gross and outrageous thing I've ever seen!
🙂 in a nike tech
may God protect us from useless information
And i cant remember where i leave my keys 2 minutes after i get home.
I don't think this is all down to just memory. It's mostly down to his deduction skill. He absolutely understood the mind of the guy sitting opposite to him and he was able to figure out what kind of questions he might have come up.
That's the only explanation for guessing the harry Potter one so fast because there was endless possibilities, endless chess based movies but Carlsen knew the guy was going to think something simple like HP.
fake
Total fake. How's he able to tell it's Anand vs Zapata after 2 moves of theory? Cmon at least try to make it look real. Magnus is a genius, they didn't have to do this
goat
You can tell this level of recollection is completely effortless for him, he recognizes the position and the time he first came across it almost instantly. His memory really is superhuman, I wonder if anyone's ever studied him to see what his limits are. We saw that he's also naturally god tier on games like geo-guesser as well.
0:09 This was Game 17.
It's not necessarily memory, it's probably extreme over analysis and obsession with the game. Combine that with talent. And you have a master
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That was all Ron Weasley, not that Potter kid
Magnus is the kind of guy that remembers this exact comment 17 years ago.
I love how David is so humble while being a fabulous chess player himself. He’s also very insightful in his chess match commentary
If a FICTIONAL movie character had this kind of memory, I'd call it unrealistic. This is insane
obviously he has some kind of condition its not possible for normal human to remember these kinds of things
Mautism
Magnus is amazing!
This is impossible…
How..?!
Bro he's not a human
Why is Kasparov with the Azerbaijani flag, when neither of his parents is Azeri, nor he identifies as such?
I wouldn't even recognize the games i played last week
Is intelect or photographic memory that rules Chess ?
I start to think it's the last one.
good potential.. may be he should consider playing chess
If someone would be capable of beating stockfish, the only person that comes to my mind is Magnus…
I have only one question: WHAT?
the games remember magnus not the other way round lmao
* sees a COMPLETELY normal opening *
Magnus: that's Anand-zapata 1988
Holy s**t now i know why Hikaru Nakamura quits the match before the match even starts against Magnus this guy has unlimited memory
I am absolutely nobody in chess, and I still recognised the seville endgame and the Ivanchuk miss …. To test someone like Magnus, I think you have to bring much less famous games (and he would still score near 100% I think)
88K likes, year 88
I'm so freaking impressed. The Real Mike Ross of Chess
I easily remember fifty billion games in my head, so compared to me, Magnus is a totally retarded player. Yawn.
Unbelievable !!
Garry Kasparov is Armenian
I’m dumb 🫡
i could beat this dude
