Regardless the victories and high rankings the other chess players in history have, no one will ever be loved and admired as this man is. Mikhail Tal. The man who was putting a piece of his soul in the chess board and touched other people's souls. And people could see, feel and recognize that. ImmorTAL and fanTALstic. Greetings from Greece.
Tal aged really badly. He was just 55 years old in this clip. As Garry Kasparov put it, "But Tal was still Tal. In this blitz tournament, I lost my only game to him. I retaliated in the second round, but the fact was that until the very end, he still had this vision of games"
So sad seeing him getting old. I remember back when i was with my grandfather, we watched his game live , and there was one moment where tal played a move, suddenly the crowd stand and cheers, i dont understand chess too good back then, but what i know is tal loved by his people
People won't remember how many wins or losses you have They'll remember the way you played the game They don't make beautiful moves like that anymore Magician from Riga
Chess engines come and go, the likes of Morphy, Fischer , Kasparov and Carlson. People you can respect, but never truly admire. I fear we will never again see a player like Mikhail Tal, so dedicated to the game, so unique. May he Rest In Peace.
He was the most aggressive player the world ever had. Engines might show his great moves as blunder but engine doesn't mark opponent's move blunder and soon the position turns winning for Tal. His moves are simply beyond engine's analysis. The greatest chess legend world ever had! He is immorTAL. #Tal
Chill out will ya? If his moves were beyond the Engines' understanding, he wouldn't be possessing one of the lowest winning percentages amongst world champions and also one of the highest loss percentages I'm all for compliments for the legend Mikhail Tal but there's no excuse for being incredibly delusional
Feeling sad after watching this. He smoked heavily that's why he looked like he's in his 70s albeit he was just in his 50s. Yet his flamboyance attitude is still loved and highly respected. This Legend will never die. ❤️
He was never a healthy specimen, afflicted with health problems, drank and smoked more than he should have done. I would not have believed he was only 55 when he died. He looked like a man well into his late sixties. A gifted genius and one-off. Doubt if the chess world will ever see another player like Tal !!
There is no one who doesn't love Tal playing chess. I really wanna hug him so hard. And his ex-World Champion title is more then well deserved. We will always remember you.
Some people dont leave their passion even during worst part of their life, they are truly legends and great examples for decades...and here he is immortal TAL....
We used to enjoy chess with friends in high school before the internet era in a small city in Turkey with the two books we were able to find. In them we met the past grandmasters and their games. We played the games on the board by following the book. One of them was crazy. His name was Tal. All of us were in awe of him. No exaggeration. Then we came to know that we were no special. He was the sweetheart of every chess fan. We later learned that he died early. He should have taken better care of himself.
I love this so much! I've been a big Tal fan since I learned about him years ago but never thought I would see footage of him. I think Tal in any era would have been an absolute nightmare to face across the board. He will always be missed even by those of us who never met him. RIP champ!
Everybody loves tal. We will never have a chess player like him again. He is the reason a lot of people find interest in chess and see how beautiful it can be.
I can see a queen sacrifice in his eyes! Wallah what a player he was. Ultimate legend. The Undertaker of chess. The Bradman of chess. The Tiger woods of chess. The Ali of chess. The Jordan of chess. The Schumacher of chess.
The only man who can be compared with the great Don Bradman.. Really...I agree.. 🙂 May the fields are different but that doesn't matter it chess or cricket..
@@oktayyilmaz5134 only a hardworker? you need much more than that to play like Kasparov did at his prime, to be number one for 20 years, to be the best in the world during 15 years, to make so many masterpieces as Kasparov did along his great career.
The Master Tactician. In this category, I rate him the best among Bobby Fischer, Alekhine & even Kasparov. Playing against Tal, you better make sure all your pieces are connected. If one piece is loose, all hell break loose
always try never say u can't mikhail tal magnus garry antoly allways try and they be a master ches player i will always try and never say u can't always say yes i can and you guys do u all will try
He was speaking about winning and losing in chess, and his return match with Botvinnik. His last words in video are: "The title "Ex world chess champion" I completely deserved! " :)

P😅😅
Not Moscow though. Minsk, 1979
You can't spell immortal without TAL
INDIA
No doubt
Here here.
WOW
You're crazy
Some are respected, others are feared, few are admired
Only Tal is loved
Idk man. The way he just looks at you while he blunders his queen would make me blunder mine back and then some.
The best definition of Tal ever... ❤👏👏👏👏👏♟💎

It's astonishing. He looked almost 20 years older than he actually was. Such a shame, he was a talented player.
Where is the game played?
@@williamwallace4080 only the truly great die young
He wasn't that much old actually, he was sick
Alcoholism
People won't remember how many wins or losses you have

They don't make beautiful moves like that anymore

??? Why can't someone admire the greatness of Carlsen and Kasparov? Calm down
They dont love the game like him. He sacrificed his life for the game.@@williamrobert9898

I don't understand what he talks but I love him for his game ♥️♥️♥️

A very humble man. I'll never be half as good a player as he was, but I don't care. I love him.
Feeling sad after watching this. He smoked heavily that's why he looked like he's in his 70s albeit he was just in his 50s.
Yet his flamboyance attitude is still loved and highly respected. This Legend will never die. ❤️
He looked like that not because of smoking, but his terrible illness which he was born with.
@@vladavasiljev He looked like that because of his amphetamine habit.
@@annaclarafenyo8185 do not attribute your drug addiction experience to others
@@filjushawf I have never been addicted to drugs.
@@filjushawf Tal was a regular user of amphetamines. I have never taken amphetamines in my life.

Tal brings us back to the child we used to be, bewildered, mesmerized by the magician that is performing unbelievable tricks before our own eyes.
Beautiful comment♥️♥️♥️
Look at his smile million dollar smile
El más grande, el genial mago del ajedrez.
Gracias por existir, oh, inmortal Mijail.
Desde Chile, con amor y pasión 🇨🇱
I'm Filipino but he is my idol in playing chess The greatest chess player of all times ❤️❤️
What an amazing personality just like his games! Love you man..
He looked intense especially with those eyes. But in reality he was an extremely kind and generous human being.

Seemed like a lovely man. Super player and phenomenal entertainer
Rest in heaven..... The magician of chesss
Mikhail Tal was the only king who used to sacrifice his queen like donuts because he knew at the end the will rule the board ❤️
Everybody loves tal. We will never have a chess player like him again.
He is the reason a lot of people find interest in chess and see how beautiful it can be.
An Immortal of the game who saw the entire chessboard at a glance!

I interested in chess in a short time ago and I really amazed his great performs. R.I.P. Mikhail Tal. All respects from Turkey.
My favourite chess player all of time
There have been 5 absolute genious in chess: Morphy, Capablanca, Fischer, Kaspárov and, of course, Misha
Yeaa ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
* Александр Алёхин, to make it 7 samurai
oh that's 6 sorry :) well there's place for Carlsen up there I guess
Kasparov is not a genius...hardworker
@@oktayyilmaz5134 only a hardworker? you need much more than that to play like Kasparov did at his prime, to be number one for 20 years, to be the best in the world during 15 years, to make so many masterpieces as Kasparov did along his great career.
His queens was immortal 🥺🥺
Although sickness, his eyes were shining with intelligence as it used to be
I watched many GM's games but Tal's game always have brilliancy and creativity. A real genius; yes the Riga magician!
We need a Mikhail Tal show like Queens Gambit quality type of show or even better.
He was a phenomenon, absolute genius!
An immense respect to the Greatest Player of all time.. Mikhail Tal
The Master Tactician. In this category, I rate him the best among Bobby Fischer, Alekhine & even Kasparov. Playing against Tal, you better make sure all your pieces are connected. If one piece is loose, all hell break loose
What I can say about Mikhail is simply a Legend
He did everything he loves
Always the magician
Mikhael Tal is not only the most loved and exciting chess player of our time, his humility and humbleness will elevate him to eternity.
The utmost respect for this great, beloved and iconic giant of chess

The Attacker GOAT!
Mikail tal was the legend! R.I.P KING OF SACRIFICE
That eyes talk a lot
He may not have been in the midst of us today, but because of his game, he will remain immortal in the world of chess.😇😇😇😇
There were Apollo, Ares, Artemis, Hades, Hermes, Poseidon, Zeus, and Tal. Immortals.
Cronos was the father of them all.
A humble genius. God bless Mikhail Tal.
The light in your eyes will inspire generations
Rest In Peace Tal
I cried watching this. Why?
I admire Tal very much because of his creative style. In my opinion he composed chess position during his playing

thanks for the video.
still, when he's talking, the music is not necessary. or at least not this loud. makes it harder to listen to him.
Hmm Best player than kasporov is Tal he beat kasporov in 17 moves not a joke Tal was a great chess player he will be in my heart forever Legend Tal
Wonderful video!
Another legend that is gone. If only he was healthy, he would be beating all for decades and would be still alive today.
my favorite Chess GM Mikhail tal the magician of riga..
He was not only good chess player but good man.
Thanks for sharing this video... I love Legendary Mikhail Tal... Hats off...👍
The magician from Riga
I love Mikhail Tal
Chess players are of three types (1) Good (2) Bad (3) Tal
RIP legend 🙏🌷
I'm sad Tal isn't around to see the AlphaZero and Neural network revolution. His daring yet dubious play was actually sound.
Beer drinking and smoking cigarettes made his life short.. at age 55, he looks like 70.. Still, the best chess player of all time..
Legends never die
All I know about him is he had makes a good movement in chess and he had no doubt to sacrificed queen pieces . I love the way he played chess
He was only 55 when he passed, but looked like he was pushing 80...the devastating effects of lifelong heavy drinking and smoking.
wish i could get at least one line of his words ❤
He was speaking about winning and losing in chess, and his return match with Botvinnik.
His last words in video are: "The title "Ex world chess champion" I completely deserved! " :)
Chess proud of u bcoz I think if chess play himself then also chess resign
Music is louder than his voice.. i can barely hear what he is saying. Anyway, thanks for video!
Thanks for upload! )
Love you dear Tal
Las leyendas jamás mueren !
