Good video. You should have explained why at 3:16 White moving knight to C5 was the best move. At 3:16 White moving King to C2 looks much more natural and will still win according to the reasoning in your video after black responds with rook to D2. Although I can see why knight to C5 avoids the complication and also allows white to have a queen sooner, hence being the better move.
At 3:16 if Kc2 (instead of Nc5), Then ...Rd7 c8Q Rc7+ and white king cannot protect c5 square after his next move. So, if white avoids stalemate, black can play Rc5, preventing Nf5# and white should be lost, not won.
if king takes rook bishop takes pawn and the other pawn will be picked up by the king if necessary the bishop will sacrifice itself to top pawn queening an you are then left with king and wo pawns against king and knight and black will be very lucky to draw
sorry i may just be a nooby, but at 3:05 why doesnt white take the rook? if bishop takes h3 then you can bring over the knight, and black cant push his pawn without giving up the pressure on c8. maybe an ugly win but it would get the job done right?
extraordinary position!

If King takes rook its a draw.
Also, black can push his pawn, and after black is forced to take the new queen, then his pawn can get pushed And queened.

@sheepwshotguns black simply takes the h5 pawn and then sacrifice his bishop for the c-pawn and then he got a draw savely.
