Derren Brown's videos always amaze me. yet i keep wondering how much is staged and how much is really happening as we see.

here on snotr we have seen a small boy around 10-12 years, that did this blind vs 10 chess players (no super chess guys, but pros), so this wasnt that much exciting :p

#2 That small boy is Magnus Carlsen, now ranked number 1 in the world.
He does it by actually playing each game and remembering each individual move on the individual board.
Derren Brown Matches up players against each other and play their moves against one of the other opponents. So basically he only need to remember the moves from the last round to match that to the other opponent. It is amazing regardless.

@ NO 1 SAMXGX,

He done a very clever trick here, he basically copied the moves from one player to another, and he knows the stronger players to the weaker players, he just replicas the moves from one game to the next, its very smart..
