    fun fact: napoleon actually played the black pieces in this game because the creator said the turk only would play the white pieces. when napoleon refused, it knocked all the pieces off the board

      I thought Turk did it because Napoleon started to make illegal moves during the game.

    It was actually the the mechanical turk that wiped the chessboard. And it fooled people for 80 years

    This is great! 😁 I know Napoleon also has his own song, I wish Horrible Histories would post that video too.

      You are correct. Something else that should be noted is that moving your king is a sign of weakness and is usually considered a last resort

    The Mechanical Turk’s face is giving nothing away….largely because it doesn’t move.
