This 12-Year-Old Is the World’s Youngest Chess Grandmaster

Abhimanyu Mishra of New Jersey became the youngest chess grandmaster in the world at just 12 years and four months old. “I feel on top of the world,” Abhimanyu told Leigh Scheps for Inside Edition Digital’s “On The Rise.” Last year, he completed two grades in one year so he could have time off from school to work on his game. This year, his parents enrolled him in online schooling to complete the seventh grade so he can continue practicing chess.

He literally just said, " I also like this game because you can crush your opponents without physically hurting them.." 3:00 😳😄😂

[@alexanderphilip1809]

He seems incredibly intelligent. But his parents dont seem to be on good terms with each other. Just an observation.

[@hassankhan]

People from asian subcontinents aren't "lovey-dovey" on camera ... like caucasians! So don't worry, they're just fine.

[@hamianagrande]

Masters measure in moves & time (hence the timer), novices use only time 😂😂😂 I'm definitely a novice

This kid is a mini Elon Musk!

True😂

[@maxtv333thesuperstar3]

How?

[@jojostwowheels]

I have nothing against Abhimanyu. Congrats to him for being the youngest chess grandmaster. But there was a twitter war about how he became a GM. He also performed poorly in one online chess tournament against top 20 GMs of the world. But because he's still a kid, I see more potential in him to improve. He could become the World Champion someday.

[@jaykaltic7827]

First!

[@rahmanhakim1]

He's no doubt a genius and prodigy but maybe learn some social skills because he's kinda douchy....

[@musamaturah4693]

Ayee I see that brawl stars 🍃

[@silentkilla14]

Oh yeah ? Try playing checkers then we will see!!
