Kurt could literally play any instrument, is musically gifted, learned a new language in only a week, and also a chess master??? God REALLY has favorites huh
Yeah no all of this is just a lot of hard work and I’m sure he would agree with that. Unless someone has a serious learning disability, everyone can achieve goals if you put the work in and are dedicated.
I'm convinced that in a tournament setting (where you'd be kicked out for being that noisy) players of their skill level wouldn't have been able to create a draw.
I guess that it depends from person to person how much the noice effects you. Personally I have done this against 2 people in at school during a break while talking to others. The most impressive part is the amount of boards. I don't think I can handle a 3th. And that's comming from someone who calculated 12^12 with mental math.

I feel like Ned is way smarter than most people believe. He took the SAT after 15 years and got a super high score. He got into Yale and worked as a chemist. He tied with a chess master.
Phoebe Ahn : And Ned clearly called a truce because he was nervous over the last few moments of the game. Didn’t want to continue stressing trying to beat Kurt. Haha Also, a lot of us know that Ned is the most educated and analytical of the Try Guys. After all, he is the one who manages the Try Guys finances. FYI, did anyone notice that Ned was concentrating and joking the least in this video?
When he recalled the entire game from memory my jaw DROPPED!!!!! Not only can he visualize what's happening in 4 different games at once, but he can remember each move AND keeps track of the amount of turns. Incredibly impressive.
someone needs to talk about Ned’s skill in this video. i know Kurt was blindfolded and playing 3 other games mentally, but Kurt even admitted he played impressively and made moves he didn’t see coming. Ned was flexing his intelligence a bit in this one.
I just realized kurt did this and in the drunk v. high math challenge, Drunk ned simultaneously wrote a love note to Keith and solved a crazy hard math question in his head at the same time... what tf does Yale do to people 😂
If people think Ned is smart for solving that arithmetic problem that I could solve within seconds even as a 14-year-old and for drawing in a blindfolded simul someone I would be the favourite against in a fair match, then I must be a freaking genius lol.
when kurt compliments their moves while being totally unable to see, that is the most impressive. when he moves, it almost feels like he could be guessing (I know he isn't but it feels like he could be less oriented) but when he acknowledges their moves as good, it really shows he not only knows all the pieces on all four boards, not only have plans for his pieces for all four boards, but ALSO is keeping track of all of their potential moves, which ones are good, and how he may counter them
*Me:* "IS THAT KURT HUGO SCHNEIDER???" *KHS:* "Hi, my name is Kurt Schneider." *Me:* "WTF, he knows how to play so many damn instruments AND it's a chess master?...WTF"
lmao when Ned said “he’s a college friend of mine” I went “oh so two people from the same university became famous, what are the odds?!” and then they said “YALE-OFF” I was like “oh…”
@@SpiritsMC5YT Lol no, It's just an ivy league school. Their alumni includes Presidents. So they attract a lot of people that will eventually go on and do something with their lives on a large scale politically. And then theatrically, Yale has a top rated acting school so they have a lot of famous alumni acting.
Bengt Bagels if you’re asking what the musical is, it is a Tony-nominated musical by Benny Anderson (from ABBA), Björn Ulvaeus (also from ABBA), and Tim Rice (who also co-wrote the music for the Lion King, Billy Elliot, and Jesus Christ Superstar to name a few) about a chess match at the height of the Cold War between American and USSR world champions. It has been performed on the west end, on broadway, and on multiple tours since the concept album debut in 1984. It’s most notable songs include “I Know Him So Well” and “One Night In Bangkok”. Original cast included leading lady of west end theatre Elaine Paige. It’s good, I highly recommend you look into it.
Kurt became 400% more attractive to me when he started playing while memorizing the four boards. Update: lmao not that yall asked but I discovered that I'm a lesbian and that I'm not actually attracted to him I just wanna be him Update 2: I discovered that im neither attracted to him nor am I a lesbian, the reason I wanted to be him is because im transgender. I think this video takes 90% of the credit for finding shit out about myself. Also im using a separate account to reply to some of yall in the comments, this account is just a decor for my parents cuz they got access to it.
The only reason I knew Kurt was a chess master before this video was that I used to be subscribed to Rosanna Pansino, who had Kurt on her show a few times, and they made a chessboard cake and played on it 😅
Ned: *plays most chess* Keith: *chess champ 6th grade* Zach: *played in first grade* Eugene: “Oh yeah, that’s the building and the Jesus top and the....”
The fact that he played FOUR games at once while BLINDFOLDED IS INSANE. He memorized every single move for each board. Remembered the board layout, the pieces, everything...for FOUR boards. The man is a genius. Him memorizing 2 boards while blindfolded would have been impressive, let alone four. Holy crap. I am sad I missed this vid when it came out. I don't know how or why. I blame YT...I am also impressed with Ned. I wonder how well he would do playing 1V1 with Kurt. P.S. I have to say...well, I don't have to say, but I WANT to say. Kurt is very attractive. IDK man, that intelligence, and soft spoken voice, with the mannerisms. I like it lol. Brains are sexy.
ned: "also a colledge friend" so kurt has went to yale, been musically gifted, is a master of chest and learnt a language in a week. peace im out, this.. this is too much
Well even non chessmasters could... In my classroom, the chessplayers had a class where they are trying to play without the board or pieces but only with paper and pencil...
It's crazy because I've been a fan of KHS for a years, and I knew he went to yale. I've been a fan of the Try Guys for years, so I knew Ned went to Yale. BUT THE FACT THEY KNEW EACH OTHER BLOWS MY MIND
Ned played incredibly well - I put the endgame in Stockfish and at no point was he losing (it hovered around equal to +1.0). It was +0.3 when he offered a draw.
Black Sheep He was the same way in the sushi episode...so funny! I think he’s just so much more comfortable in his own skin than he was when they started.
I love how mind blown he was when he saw how Kurt replayed the whole match from memory even with a blindfold on. He was all like "Wtf that is genius" and it works like that.
Joeheart I’m half Chinese and half Mexican and I think it’s really impressive. Yale’s acceptance rate is absolutely insane, for anyone to even get IN Yale is impressive and to graduate is very difficult.
@@joeheart5808 yale is internationally known bruv. People from outside america try to get in and can't. You probably couldn't. Besides people who go to these schools don't brag about it like an achievement because imposter syndrome is so insane at those schools.
as a chess player I have to say that Kurt's recall and sportsmanship are amazing. not only does he take the Guys seriously as opponents, he takes the time to explain castling, etc., and admits when one of them makes a good move. I've tried blindfolded games before and I was always very severely handicapped; seeing as I'm not that good to begin with, so I lost every game I played blindfolded, obviously. the fact that some chessmasters can play without setting eyes on a board stuns me.
They made quiet pawns even though they were rookies. Eugene is such a queen. Kurt is a really king in chess. This knight be one of the best videos. A little bishop weird but very funny
I know he went for a draw with Ned, but i really think people who don't play chess realize how much the Try Guys didn't stand a chance. It's like 4 five year olds taking on a blindfolded Hulk
He can memorize 4 different chess games blindfolded while I can't remember why I entered a room. Makes sense.

SpiritsMC5 YT not necessarily famous but just successful in what they major in
@@SpiritsMC5YT Or, in relation to the thousands of other university, Yale would be more likely to have multiple famous grads off the same batch.
@@SpiritsMC5YT Lol no, It's just an ivy league school. Their alumni includes Presidents. So they attract a lot of people that will eventually go on and do something with their lives on a large scale politically. And then theatrically, Yale has a top rated acting school so they have a lot of famous alumni acting.
“Not sure if there is even any songs about chess”
Chess the musical: “am I a joke to you?”
Bengt Bagels if you’re asking what the musical is, it is a Tony-nominated musical by Benny Anderson (from ABBA), Björn Ulvaeus (also from ABBA), and Tim Rice (who also co-wrote the music for the Lion King, Billy Elliot, and Jesus Christ Superstar to name a few) about a chess match at the height of the Cold War between American and USSR world champions. It has been performed on the west end, on broadway, and on multiple tours since the concept album debut in 1984. It’s most notable songs include “I Know Him So Well” and “One Night In Bangkok”. Original cast included leading lady of west end theatre Elaine Paige. It’s good, I highly recommend you look into it.
Checkmate by Conan Gray: Um...??
Legit my reaction, the disrespect. smh
Or Random Encounters, Markiplier, and MatPat in How to Beat a Monkey at Chess.
I get my kicks above the waistline sunshine
Kurt became 400% more attractive to me when he started playing while memorizing the four boards.
Update: lmao not that yall asked but I discovered that I'm a lesbian and that I'm not actually attracted to him I just wanna be him
Update 2: I discovered that im neither attracted to him nor am I a lesbian, the reason I wanted to be him is because im transgender. I think this video takes 90% of the credit for finding shit out about myself. Also im using a separate account to reply to some of yall in the comments, this account is just a decor for my parents cuz they got access to it.
Cora 155 who would’ve ever known a guy so smart walking blindfolded would be so hottt
bruh honestly , like damn , I didn't know I had this desire in me to see a guy playing chess ..
I don't wanna brag, but I can cook an omlette with one hand.
sedd1234 shush I’m trying to admire this dude rn
Not to flex but I've memorised my phone number 👀
I’ve been listening to Kurt Schneider covers for 10+ years and I’m just now discovering he’s a musical genius AND a chess master? Wtf
The guys a genius. He also knows multiple languages.
The only reason I knew Kurt was a chess master before this video was that I used to be subscribed to Rosanna Pansino, who had Kurt on her show a few times, and they made a chessboard cake and played on it 😅
Same. Since high school and all I know is, he's the guy really good at music and really good at medleys
I know! They said Kurt Schneider and I was like...wait...the musician?
That’s what I’m saying. I didn’t know he was a chess master!
Eugene: the horse heads, the building, the little nobby top, the Jesus top, the sacrificial lamb
Hey i didn’t know we were dealing with an expert here
Me when talking about chess
i exploded laughing at that😂😂😂😂😂😂
Nice

Sacrificial lamb
Ned: *queen takes queen*
Zach, Eugene, and Keith: “yASSS QUEEEEN”
Kurt: *rook takes queen*
Zach, Eugene, and Keith: “noooo queeen..”
This killed me 😂😂
rook*

Literally rewatched it so many times. XDXDXD
The best part of the video. Other than Eugene calling Zach Steve Jobs' son.
13:03
Me, alone, under my breath: “...wtf is that Kurt Schneider “
Me, alone under my breath: I've seen that guy somewhere before
Same, I didnt know he was a chess master
I love his videos and I knew I recognized him, but I didn't believe until he introduced himself
666th like hell yeah
SAME
"this is probably the most intense try guys video we've ever done"
me being here after the "what happened." video:
I was looking for this comment.
Keith: “Also we’re all gonna dress like we’re in The Matrix”
Keith 10 seconds later: Walks out wearing a T-shirt
Ned: *plays most chess*
Keith: *chess champ 6th grade*
Zach: *played in first grade*
Eugene: “Oh yeah, that’s the building and the Jesus top and the....”
LMAOOOO ikr
Darslit im ur 666th like since im satan
Lol can't stop laughing
“Queen takes Queen C6”
“Yeessss queennn!”
“Root takes Queen”
“Noooo queenn!”
Low-key my favourite part.
Also, if anyone wants the time stamp, it's: 13:01
My fav part of the video honestly 😂
That was my favorite section of the entire video. 😂😂😂😂
*Rook not root
Root?
The fact that he played FOUR games at once while BLINDFOLDED IS INSANE. He memorized every single move for each board. Remembered the board layout, the pieces, everything...for FOUR boards. The man is a genius. Him memorizing 2 boards while blindfolded would have been impressive, let alone four. Holy crap. I am sad I missed this vid when it came out. I don't know how or why. I blame YT...I am also impressed with Ned. I wonder how well he would do playing 1V1 with Kurt. P.S. I have to say...well, I don't have to say, but I WANT to say. Kurt is very attractive. IDK man, that intelligence, and soft spoken voice, with the mannerisms. I like it lol. Brains are sexy.
Keith:”We are all gonna dress like we are in the matrix.”
Me: “You guys dress like you are gonna rob a bank.”
A Ho at least eugene did it stylishly HAHAH
A Ho
Ikr
Zach did say he would steal the masters wallet 😂
@@shyan5644 i agree 😂
ned: "also a colledge friend"
so kurt has went to yale, been musically gifted, is a master of chest and learnt a language in a week. peace im out, this.. this is too much
Yet he fucking works with BuzzFeed.
Oh my god 😂 ight I'ma head out as well..
hes just james bond but lame because of buzzfeed. so maybe Lames Bond
@Harrison Tran The try guys left around 2 years ago to start their own company
He's a puzzle master as well, he got some excellent sudoku abilities
Now Ned has three things to talk about: his wife, his son, and his tie with a chess master.
How he forfeited an easy win against a chess master
Spoiler
His butt
And he went to Yale
Ani Kellermann And Bean
“Fuckin’ Protestants win cause I’m killing your bishop”
Omg I fucking burst out laughing hysterically when Eugene said that 😂😂😂
"One of my sacrificial lambs to E4."
"I'll also play Pawn to E5."
funniest shit ever
Best quotes:
“yaaaaasss queen!”
“Nooooo queen!”
“He’s gonna mate with you on your next move.”
you forgot "he's a master bater"
AeVision omg yas
Eugene to Ned: “Good job son”
AeVision You forgot the “I don’t think I’ve done anything 2,000 times.. well.. one thing”
13:08
Is anyone going to talk about how two chess masters could play chess without a board or pieces
holy shit that's right!
Dr Spencer reid
With only algebraic notation
Well even non chessmasters could...
In my classroom, the chessplayers had a class where they are trying to play without the board or pieces but only with paper and pencil...
I wouldn't be able to keep up with the game but fuck I need to see that shit
"Ohhhhh, he was cancelled by fox" - Possibly the funniest thing I've heard Ned Say
Kurt whispering “good move” while rubbing his neck is gonna be the death of me.
Same
Time stamp...? Please someone? Anyone
Sweet Jesus I’m not alone
Janita Barber or when he pulls on his hair while concentrating 👀
@@Gamergirl-172 13:42
Anyone know what Ned’s favourite game is?
It’s chess. It’s his favourite game because chess rhymes with Wes.
Noice
Omg
why is that so FUCKING WHOLESOME
🤣
I'm a Potato LOL
It's crazy because I've been a fan of KHS for a years, and I knew he went to yale. I've been a fan of the Try Guys for years, so I knew Ned went to Yale.
BUT THE FACT THEY KNEW EACH OTHER BLOWS MY MIND
Sukanya Barman YES SAMEEEEE
i just checked he has 12.9M subs and try guys have 7.27M i mean IMRESSIVE!
It’s like your worlds collided
SAME
Sadly time when people don’t recognize that Sam tsui and Casey go to Yale too
4:18 “It’s just classic, the queen does all the work, the king take all the credits”
Well said, Zach, well said.
Why is most of the comments are getting sexual tension with a blindfolded chess player
LMAOOO
why not?
Bruh moment
Intelligence is hot
Thx to school that realization never existed
Kurt can play instruments, speak fluent Chinese and is a chess master.
He is the kid that every Asian parents want to have.
probably that's why he learns chinese, to be eligible in the eyes of most asian parents ('cause chinese #1 population rn)
He’s also marrying an Asian girl haha
Janna 7
don’t forget he went to yale
@@skz886 bitch what???? what kind of schedule does he have that he can do all this, hes amazing
@@NOCLUEinvalid i thought he came out as gay...? or was that something else?
This video unironically brought out the blindfold fetish for so many people.
Hahah
he's genius af on a blindfold, and my god forgive me, makes me crazy af
💀💀💀
I didn't knew that was the name, thanks loll
Wut
I love that Keith and Zach are like *gasp* and Eugene is like "I'm so lost"
Yale graduate, incredible musician, and Chess master. Life isn’t fair.
And handsome too
Fajar loa very handsome 😂
And he speaks Chinese
I love how ur profile pic says stop complaining but ur whole comment is a complaint about life
and he majored in mathematics!
Kurt being hot playing chess walked so hot guys in The Queen’s Gambit could run
English?
It’s an expression “_____ walked so _____ could run”
@@emmac6596 oh lol
Lol
ahhahahahhahahh
When Kurt is in chess master mode he is like a different person...
AshesToDust yeah he becomes Hannibal Lecter
He is MAD concentrating! You try playing 4 games at once blindfolded, win 3 and tie 1 lol :D
No cap he was cute I was like oh whoa a whole dom coming to surface
Everytime it switched from chess mode Kurt to explaining Kurt it was like he was different person
It was both scary and hot.
Ned played incredibly well - I put the endgame in Stockfish and at no point was he losing (it hovered around equal to +1.0). It was +0.3 when he offered a draw.
“Queen takes Queen”
“YASSSSSS QUEEN”
“Rook takes Queen”
“oh nooooo Queen”

It’s an even trade
Sidney Rich right though. 👀 like I didn’t ask for the likes?
I've never seen the rules of chess so dramatically represented.
I've never seen chess rules in general lol
Unconfident, chill and clueless Eugene is *REFRESHING.*
And honestly a fucking funny Eugene to watch.
Black Sheep He was the same way in the sushi episode...so funny! I think he’s just so much more comfortable in his own skin than he was when they started.
I love how mind blown he was when he saw how Kurt replayed the whole match from memory even with a blindfold on. He was all like "Wtf that is genius" and it works like that.
Oof why is Kurt speaking softly blindfolded and being so smart doing it for me?
Ned and Kurt: *Focused on the chess game*
They other try guys: YALLE OFFFFFFF
i have found my username mother
@@owoowo234 owo
I think everybody forgets how smart Ned actually is after all he went to Yale
Marykate De Souza Really? I’ve always identified him as the smart ass one 🤓
Well he was a former chemist
Marykate De Souza pretty sure only Americans find that to be a big achievement
Joeheart I’m half Chinese and half Mexican and I think it’s really impressive. Yale’s acceptance rate is absolutely insane, for anyone to even get IN Yale is impressive and to graduate is very difficult.
@@joeheart5808 yale is internationally known bruv. People from outside america try to get in and can't. You probably couldn't. Besides people who go to these schools don't brag about it like an achievement because imposter syndrome is so insane at those schools.
I was like "why does the chess master looks like kurt hugo schneider" and then proceed to read the description and found out it is kurt hugo schneider
Me toooo!
I was like he looks soooooo much like Kurt. Is he?!
Me too..
Same!
Same here 😂
I totally thought I clicked the wrong video
"YAS QUEEN!"
"Oh no Queen~!"
My most fav lines ever LOL
Him knowing everything blindfolded is insanely attractive to me
Right? He look so hot thinking
AGREED!!
I’ve never found him more attractive tbh
İ swear that is the word i used he is a serial killer material but in a good hot way😍
Sex God
as a chess player I have to say that Kurt's recall and sportsmanship are amazing. not only does he take the Guys seriously as opponents, he takes the time to explain castling, etc., and admits when one of them makes a good move. I've tried blindfolded games before and I was always very severely handicapped; seeing as I'm not that good to begin with, so I lost every game I played blindfolded, obviously.
the fact that some chessmasters can play without setting eyes on a board stuns me.
he is a national master and he can do this much
imagine what a grand master like carlson or hikaru can do
kurt's intelligence is so attractive yet intimidating i would be scared to breath near him
asnhgoeolter he’s actually a musician. He has a channel on UA-cam. He’s very gentle and nice :)
I quickly glanced over this at first and read "I would be scared to be beneath him"
@@chestersnap I wouldn't be
@@LittleMew133 i will check him out! thanks :)

This whole comment section is Wattpad fanfic and I'm here for it
Ned is the kind of guy who says he didn't study but tops the exam.
Oh man, that is so spot on..... He is for sure that person. Im so jealous of those people.
honestly, you only need to pay attention to be that kind of person
I’m that person
Yes He is really that person! Always gets the exam done first.
He did it again in their TikTok video 🤣
Ned and Kurt: concentrating on playing chess
The rest of the guys: ...quiet puns
They made quiet pawns even though they were rookies. Eugene is such a queen. Kurt is a really king in chess. This knight be one of the best videos. A little bishop weird but very funny
whoo p quiet...pawns 👀
Kurts blindfolded muttering and recall and face rubbing was very hot and I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks so
Thank you!
@KURTIS DLG Bruh.
*sighs deeply*
Qwerty Uiop ohhh my god me too
I think it’s hot when someone is very focused and determined about something to achieve a goal.
I know he went for a draw with Ned, but i really think people who don't play chess realize how much the Try Guys didn't stand a chance. It's like 4 five year olds taking on a blindfolded Hulk
Personally i think that undermines Ned's skill. He played good chess
