    Just as an aside, Fischer learned Russian so that he could study their chess journals. He was more than thorough. He wasn't entirely off-base in thinking that the Russians would gang up on him. Chess is like bicycle racing in that national teams help out their premier players.

      I think that when you are labeled as a genius at something, this has the potential to become obsessed with the details and to be a true genius you are by nature become hard to deal with because of the success you obtain a high level in your introverted ego, that is why it's unfair to compare your self with a pro athlete because, there is most certainly a gift from a higher power ie ,God's gift because of the gift the ego inflates and the person becomes by default harder to deal with, and because the man is imperfect because the massive ego makes the individual think that he is more or better than everyone one else, but thier are two factors the jealous of others that want to be like him and the fact that because of the gift you have at least a 50 percent chance of self destruction, by the way I think that even the most stable person at one time or another at least once in a while feels that he's not sane

      A draw during a candidates tournament is only damaging for both players.
      After all: Only the victor of the tournament is going to play for the championship.
      Therefore only victories are helping you, draws are already not good enough.
      It would make no sense at all to pre-arrange draws during such a tournament as it would only damage both players.
      This make no sense at all.

      It was, and still is, but you are equivocating. Bobby's complaint was that his opponents were arranging draws with each other before the games specifically to ruin his chances of winning tournaments. The intentional drawing that goes on in chess today is very different. Though it makes the sport less interesting, top chess players make draws against each other to mitigate the risk of losing one's OWN game and in doing so running the risk of ruining a tournament. The reason for the draws is to ensure ones own chances to win tournaments rather than to collude against an opponent. This type of drawing has no direct premeditation between the parties, where Fischer's opponents would have verbal agreements before the game that they would draw. It is very, very different.

    Couple points of clarification: It was later proven through official memos that the Soviet grandmasters actually were colluding in several instances, achieving easy draws in order to conserve their strength. Also, it's a common narrative to say that the level of Fischer's play had declined in his return match with Spassky in 1992, however he did manage to produce several fantastic brilliancies--in particular games 1 and 11.

      @@chrisdonegan428 Bobby was only 16 years old in 1959 and had not yet reached his most dangerous heights against the Russians. The Russians did in fact collude to draw against each other to save their energy for Fischer. This was proven by KGB documents. Petrosian, who admitted agreeing to draws in advance, meekly tried to defend it:" We are not gladiators". Bobby rightly complained that the players were analyzing their games out loud afterwards at the table, which was very distracting, but Golumbek, the arbiter, did nothing.
      That's the last time Tal ever did that to Bobby and in fact, Bobby beat Tal in their Curacao Candidates matches in 1962. Botvinnik had never played Tal before, but one year later, in 1961, Botvinnik demolished Tal to regain the championship. Tal never again reached his peak, largely because of health issues and the fact that many of his strange and complicated sacrifices were later proven to lead to losing positions with correct analysis.
      In the Curaçao Candidates' tournament in 1962, in a Sports Illustrated manifesto (“The Russians Have Fixed World Chess”), by Bobby, claiming a rudimentary grasp of Russian allowed him to sniff out their cheating: “They would openly analyze my game while I was still playing it. It is strictly against the rules for a player to discuss a game in progress, or even to speak with another player during a game - or, for that matter, with anyone.” Fischer also posed that the format of the tournament was problematic as it allowed the numerous Soviet players to collude in a series of draws and fixes, saving their energy for the finals. His suspicions were validated by several witnesses, including a Soviet grand master. I repeat: " His suspicions were VALIDATED by several witnesses, including a SOVIET GRANDMASTER. "
      As a member of both the Marshall Chess Club and the former Manhattan Chess Club (Bobby's longtime chess club), I know several top players who knew Bobby , including Masters and Grandmasters, some who were former Russians. It was common knowledge that that the Russians cheated and colluded against Bobby Fischer. The fact that he was able to completely demolish the Russians to win the Interzonal and then the Candidates Tournament to take on Spassky in 1972, despite their cheating, says all you need to know about his true greatness. But that in no way minimizes the Russians penchant for cheating.

    @EndoftheTownProductions 4 роки тому +264

    Some of his chess demands were totally legitimate such as better lighting conditions when playing these long 5 hour matches. The situation with the pre-arranged draws had to do with when he played many Russian players in a tournament, his contention was that they would draw against each other in order to save energy and worked together to make sure that Fischer would lose in the tournament or at least have a more difficult time. Some of these things weren't necessarily examples of paranoia. He didn't trust many people because he felt that people took advantage of him because of his celebrity and talent and most likely his troubled childhood factored in to his distrust of people. His paranoia seems to have become more acute later in his life. Also, remember, Bobby did everything himself regarding his chess and studying for these matches. His genius and work ethic led to his championship level chess but also made for a really lonely life.

      Agreed. Dr. Grande's analysis sounds most plausible to me as well. As Dr. Grande indicated, although chess seemed to have caused him some stress, at least the competitive part, it also likely to a large extent spared him a likely worse life than what he had. It seems like despite his psychological problems, it was actually because of his chess abilities and fame that people around the world would yet give him some support. Whereas, had he not been good at chess, he might have ended up homeless or low income as maybe unlikely to hold down a job well, and not much support.

      27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is [c]justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law. 29 Or is He the God of the Jews only? Is He not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also, 30 since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith. 31 Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not!
      On the contrary, we establish the law.

    If his mother was spied on by the FBI, then it doesn’t seem like she was behaving in a paranoid way. If Bobby was also spied on as a child, it would explain why he would not want to be watched or filmed. His sensory sensitivity and wanting to control conditions while playing chess do lean towards asd. Throw in ocd and obsessing over one special interest with such amazing focus. Well, it’s hard to say now even in hindsight isn’t it? When you have quirky behaviour or poor social skills people really do say a lot of mean things about you, to your face as well as behind your back. I dare say he was correct about people talking about him if he was arguing with them the whole time. Well it’s all academic now I guess 🙂🐝

      It's probably horrible to be observed and spied on all the time since he was a kid.

      Jesus is love
      And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.
      17 Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. 19 We love [a]Him because He first loved us.
      20 If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, [b]how can he love God whom he has not seen? 21 And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.
      1 john 4:16-21
      Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. romans 8:37-39

See that you are not troubled; for [a]all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, [b]pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
      9 “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. 10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But he who endures to the end shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come. matthew 24:4-14

    Excellent presentation! From my very limited observations as a modest chess player myself, I saw that Bobby Fischer spent a good deal of time with Mr. Brady, his wealthy benefactor, as a young man, for many years and also with Larry Evans and Fr. William Lombardi (strong GMs) for large time segments during his preparation and Championship match and seemed to be fully functional. His long history of play in many social settings seemed fairly normal and his obsession with playing conditions and monetary compensation were actually necessary and certainly raised the standards for all professional players-all very admirable traits. His "delusions" about Russian collusion was factual, not fantasy. The Russians dominated the chess world and fanaticlly tried to stop Fischer from winning becaused it threatened the Socialist model of superiority. They actually did conspire to draw with each other to conserve mental energy, while working hard to defeat other rivals. I think, over time, the high level of chess strain has damaged many other players minds such as former world champion William Steinitz.

If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us. 13 By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit. 14 And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as Savior of the world. 15 Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. 16 And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.
      Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. 19 We love [a]Him because He first loved us.
      If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, [b]how can he love God whom he has not seen? 21 And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

    I just thought it was aspergers. As soon as I saw him in his first interviews his presentation reminded me of people I knew with what was previously called aspergers. What people understood to be narcissism is actually just truthful. It is culturally understood to be an egoist when someone says "yes I am the best". I think he was just being honest. He believed at the time he was the best.
    His demands are also very typical of high functioning ASD, plus hyper sensitive hearing, plus obsessive narrow interests, plus his black white thinking and deterioration with age and failures. Also, it's genetic and his mum ws similar

    Although you make some interesting observations, Dr. Grande, you clearly are not aware of some facts that molded Bobby Fischer's life. I cannot go into all of them here but a few are as follows: (1) Fischer basically raised himself as a child, (2) Fischer was a very well-behaved child, especialy when one considers the poverty and the hardships he had to endure, (3) Fischer dominated American chess from his early teens until he went into seclusion as World Champion, (4) Fischer realized at an early age that chessmasters were grossly underpaid and worked tirelessly to poluarlize the chess on a worldwide basis; (5) Fischer was pressured by the Jewish community to be a Jew but he eventually became a Christian; (6) Fischer singlehandedly defeated the corrupt Russian chess machine, thus bringing chess into the modern era; (7) Fischer was persecuted by the US government, especially by George H. W. Bush and Henry Kissinger, who, in turn, pressured the Japan government to incarcerate him without due process; (8) Fischer escaped to Iceland in order to avoid the persecution of the US government which openly stated that it would imprison Fischer for ten years; and (9) Fischer's two closest Icelandic friends have written separate books about his final years and, although they consider Fischer to have been difficult at times, both admired him greatly and thought that his native country has unjustly treated him. These nine points are far from being a complete list. Still, they point to the fact that a great American's name has been besmirched. Instead of being maligned, Fischer deserves, at the very least, the appellation as "the Father of Global Chess." Fischer was not only a man of great intellect and courage but also a pioneer in exposing the corruption and the malfeasance that has plagued the United States government since the assassination of John F. Kennedy.

Music filled in where high school was failing and providing me an escape from a horrible home environment. I guess you could say I was obsessed. My parents went one step further than shoving me into therapy to cure me; they threatened to put me in either a mental institution or home for wayward girls if I didn't stop obsessing. I didn't, and it was only after my cousin intervened with "she doesn't smoke or drink, and she is out at all hours of the night with boys doing whatever. She could be worse off than liking a rock group." I think my parents made me a little schizoid, but I can tell you I never treated my children the same way.

      for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified [a]freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, 25 whom God set forth as a [b]propitiation by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed, 26 to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus.
      27 Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith. 28 Therefore we conclude that a man is [c]justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law. 29 Or is He the God of the Jews only? Is He not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also, 30 since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith. 31 Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not! On the contrary, we establish the law.

I have always felt a level of compassion for him to be such a tremendous talent and genius within the world of chess during the Cold War and how he and his mental health may have been manipulated by the United States. Your analysis struck me as a remarkable way of seeing into the psyche of such a complex individual without the often necessary (and hilarious) candor of the “celebrity” of this day.

      In the business world, this idea is known as "sunk cost(s)." The idea is that it is an investment that will never pay off in any way, whether or not the original idea was financially sound, seemingly cost effective and, ultimately, either "right" or "wrong"--the reason being that those last two words cannot figure into the calculation.
      Heavily investing in an ideology that is subsequently proven wrong or misguided would be an excellent analogy to that same idea, and just as psychologically costful as the same idea would be financially costful in a similar, analagous situation.

      For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God

    I watched some old footage of Fischer on a talk show in the early 70s. He seemed quite shy and polite. But when he was asked to demonstrate moves and end games on the board, he moved the pieces with such confidence and deliberateness, discarding pieces as he went. You could just tell he was a genius.

      Regina Fischer was extraordinarily bright. The story is slightly misleading, because she was already in medical school in Russia. She left the country before completing her final year. In America, she struggled to continue her medical education, and if I remember correctly, she was forced to start all over. But quite literally, she was a genius and was fluent in a number of languages.

    Very interesting! Makes me want to look into Bobby and his family and their dynamics even more.
    The mental illness in my own family, especially on my mom's side, and including my mom, brother, and myself piques my curiosity in the Nature vs Nurture debate and how possible it is to inherit various mental illnesses. It's very scary and interesting at the same time.
    During one of my hospital stays it seemed they wanted to do a case study on me for the University who's care I was under. Unfortunately the woman who was going to interview/ talk with me called in sick and I was supposed to discharge the next day. I was told there wasn't a way to continue with it outpatient, which I didn't understand. I felt I was finally offered hope in finding a way to better health as well as possible answers and sadly it was taken away from me. I also felt perhaps my upbringing and mental health could have helped the students who would be able to review to case in the future. 😔

Is He not also the God of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also, 30 since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith. 31 Do we then make void the law through faith? Certainly not!

  • @bashbrannigan
    @bashbrannigan 2 роки тому +7

    As always his analysis pretty good, but a few important things are missed. First, International Master Lawrence Day a contemporary of Fischer said he was beaten by the Los Angeles police and this experience affected and deepened Fischer’s emotional problems. Second, despite Fischer’s frequent unreasonable demands, his demands are directly responsible for improving playing conditions and especially improving prize money. Third, the Russian did cheat including fixing results to help compatriots in tournaments. Also, Fischer was one of the first (likely the very first) full time chess player to make a living solely from chess without government help. Finally, by all accounts, Fischer could be very friendly as many would attest and was not anti-social.

  • @bbomg02

    Ahhh my two favourite things, chess and psychology. I played chess all through high school, and this guy reminded me of Fischer he played in the big tournament against me a couple times. He took the game so serious because he won every tournament. The time he lost against one kid who was very intelligent and played at the high school level in 5th grade, it caused him to be so mad he started banging his head against the wall. I got upset at times, but I never got to the point of harming myself, but that stuck with me. Though I don't agree with all of his actions, Fischer is definitely one of the best if not the best. He was one of the first figureheads I learned about.

She might have also been trying to see the city from the roof and fell in. Many people with Bipolar disorder take risks like this in a manic state aswell. I think the death was accidental. She had not been taking her antipsychotic drug but had been taking her SSRIs which causes mania in people with Bipolar disorder.

      And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for [a]all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, [b]pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
      9 “Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. 10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But he who endures to the end shall be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come. matthew 24:4-14

      Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

      Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess [a]that Jesus [b]Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.
      4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. 5 They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them. 6 We are of God. He who knows God hears us; he who is not of God does not hear us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.
      Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. 8 He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. 9 In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. 10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
      No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us. 13 By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit. 14 And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as Savior of the world. 15 Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. 16 And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.
      Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world. 18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. 19 We love [a]Him because He first loved us.
      If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, [b]how can he love God whom he has not seen? 21 And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

    There is a YT video where Fischer solves a 15 puzzle in 17 seconds on the Johnny Carson show. When Johnny says that he would still be trying to solve it "24 hours from now" and asks how he can do it, Bobby says something like 'spending thousands of hours at it'. It shows how you are right Dr. Grande about chess possibly saving Bobby because it allowed him space to allow his intellect to run free and that he had tremendous power of concentration. This was a fascinating video in its detail and complexity. Thanks

    I would be interesting to look at Fischer through the prism of trauma, especially childhood traumas. His early years coupled with the pressures of his professional career. Adverse childehood experiences can lead to heightened stress responses and socially difficult behaviours (which he exibits at times) as well as an increased risk of serious mental health issues such as self-harm and suicidal ideation. I agree that chess probably saved him from a far worse fate and in many ways it gave him a means of self-management/self-expression/positive identity/self-validation for himself.

I also agree with your diagnoses and appreciate that you didn’t make this video clickbait or attack him in some way. In the day and age in which we are all supposed to embrace mental illness and help everyone along, people sure do give poor Bobby a really rough time. I wish more people would accept that yes, he probably was mentally damaged, and move on and just enjoy his wonderful games. Thanks for a great watch!
