  • They could make one hell of a movie out of Bobby's life and career.

  • why didn't they just give bobby fischer some ear plugs? sheesh.

  • @ScottishNonBeliever Me too! *loses in 5 moves*

    okay... :(

  • An Aspie myself, I can understand why bobbie hated the cameras. Its annoying to have a billion lenses upon ur face.

  • I used to be a part of the same church Bobby Fischer was in. I also play chess just like he does but not nearly as well..HA

  • This guy was just a grown man behaving like a spoiled brat. Comfortable, quiet conditions for playing I certainly understand, however, this stuff is ridiculous.

  • Spassky is the true 1972 champ in my eyes.

  • @Elaniago bobby shat on that joke

  • @Elaniago Then you need glasses.

  • The reason why Bobby Fischer was ignored by the cameras and the sounds of the audience is because he suffered from Asperger-syndrome.

  • AMERICA EATS ITS OWN PEOPLE

  • Don't let Repa near your pets. He likes hurting animals. He has a conviction (check the Manitoba Court Registry) for animal cruelty.

  • Keep an eye on your kids when Jason Repa is around.  He likes pre-teens. Keep an eye on your pets too. He likes to hurt animals.

  • Jason Repa cheats at online chess and has been banned by the Canadian Chess Association, the United States Chess Federation, and every chess club in his city, as well as many online chess sites.

  • Jason Repa is lucky anybody mentions him. He's an obese, unemployed pedophile who has a death wish. After 15 years of studying chess, he's still no better than a patzer.

  • Among other issues, Jason Repa suffers from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. His obsession changes on a daily basis. Just use ignore and move on.

  • Repa is easy to manipulate. Like a marionette, he dances helplessly when we pull his strings. He has no mind of his own.

  • Jason Repa has physical and emotional issues that prevent him from operating in the mainstream, so he hides in his room all day trying to act like the internet mafia.

  • bobby fischer was autisic? hmmm, well that explains a lot!

  • Leave it to convicted CHILD RAPIST William Bybel, who resides at 1325 Pennsylvania ave, in Bethlehem PA, to claim that others are looking for attention when it is precisely him who is constantly begging for the attention of others.

    He started this "tatuco8" account just a few hours ago to try to trick people into giving him the attention he so desperately craves, because everyone is ignoring him on all his other known troll accounts.

    This loser redefines the word PATHETIC!

  • @HumanVersion2 In Soviet Russia, Soviet shoot you for not doing your job. You stay put, or you toast.

  • Part of an excellent biography of Bobby. Thank you for posting...

  • Fischer was runnin shit, b'cuz he knew he was PIMP Status. He made everybody his bitch.

  • The greatest chess player in history proved that he was in such little time.

  • @kooler2004 he is one of the greatest of all time.

  • @XRRfan not one of the greatest his accomplishments state as number 1

  • @HumanVersion2

    Please, nobody cares what you would have done.

  • I have aspergers and I aint this obsessive

  • Thank you Postmester for posting this documentary , I was a product of the Fischer boom. It's a pity how he ended up.

  • "Fischer wanted to play tennis on a moment's notice. We had to have a tennis player ready to play him." lol

  • lol fischer wanted to be treated like a rockstar

  • Interesting documentary.

  • Fischer shouldn't be faulted for demanding better pay. His shenanigans were a side-show - if it worked as a weapon of intimidation so be it. I think Fischer beat Spassky because he outplayed him not because of his eccentric behavior. Fischer's charisma and force of his personality was undeniable. May he rest in peace.

  • poor guy, if only he wasn't such a misanthrope imagine how much more he could have accomplished :(

  • thanks for posting.

  • chess sexy for the first time ever!! LOL

  • Fischer was difficult and eccentric, but that's almost always part of what makes geniuses compelling. We'd all find him a lot less interesting if he were this well-adjusted, mild mannered guy.

  • "Spassky was a gent".

    I would qualify that - "Spassky was a saint."

  • Its fucking chess just fuckin play him already

  • fischer's a loner, most of his life, concentrating on chess, in his solitary quiet world. You'll know this when you are in moments of deep silence, hearing the ticking of the clock. Audience noise and camera sounds will disturb a person like him. I remember he demanded that the audience be put back away and farther from their table.

  • The best chess player cannot be just intrerrupted by any cameras!

  • I find it quite ridiculous how everyone's excuse for Fischer's bad behavior is that it is so precisely horrendous. "He's such a disgusting person, so let's forgive him because it has to be some mental disease." I don't give a fucking toot that he may have some genetic problem, he just disgusts me as a person. Let's just stop this pointless hero-worship.

  • And you are obviously pretty narrow minded yourself. I would, he gives a sh%t about his mental health???? He was the originator of professional Chess and put US in the category of intellectuality. Which only a few do each year.

  • fischer was an asshole OR he was just really smart, messing with his opponent by coming 6 mins late.

  • About the sound test because of the alledged noise of cameras: `No human ear could pick up any difference`

    People with Asperger´s syndrome do hear ultrasonic sounds. His may have freaked Fischer out, and people thought he was just being difficult.

  • wrong, it is another disorder which is on the spectrum, it is a co-morbid usually. it is called hyperaccoustia.

  • @arandomperson240 Which is, in return, one of the symptoms of Asperger´s syndrome. Linking this symptom to other characteristics of his personality, I may be not be wrong. Hyperacoustia is but a small facet.

  • @marcelbas not a symptom, a co-morbid. I have studied the disorder extensivly, it has a different section in the DSM. the problem is that people is so ignorant about it.

  • very intellegent bobby so that no one can discover what fisher was thinking

    so the one who is less intelligent have just to smile.....

  • Word!!...Spassky rulz,but those stupid childish games fucked him up in the last game!

  • Boris Spasky ... Eraserhead? 9:27

  • Norman Mailer looks a bit like Spassky

  • thank you for the upload!

  • i can beat fischer 5-0!

  • "winning 5 out of the next 6 games"

    wrong. 3 of the next 6 games. In games 4-9 he took games 5, 6, and 8. Games 4, 7, and 9 were draws.

  • Comment removed

  • It wasn't fear simply psychological. He had nothing to fear. Russia had everything to fear, so why not rub it in their face with psychological blows ?

  • that's a pathetic reason to lose so many games; A world champion like Spassky shouldn't have been so affected by it. And he wasn't; he just lost.

  • yeah its more insulting to imply that spassky broke down mentally instead of being outplayed.

  • who cares how he won he still won

  • Spasski was too nice. I can imagine how angry he was by the 3rd game or so - but maybe just tried to control himself. Shouldn't be any good state of mind to play.

  • Two games behind isn't that unusual for a world championship match.

  • It is if it's after three games.

  • Yeah, but generally, 2 games isn't a lot.

  • Robert James Fischer: Chicago born and Brooklyn raised; may he rest in peace.
