"Unconventional Tactics: YouTubers Test Vibrating Sex Toy Strategy Against Chess Grandmaster"

British YouTubers Josh Pieters and Archie Manners have put the outlandish theory of using anal beads and a chess computer to cheat in chess to the test. In a video released on their channel, Pieters played against grandmaster Daniel Fernandez while receiving instructions from Manners through a vibrator controlled by a smartphone. The code used to communicate the moves was simple, and Fernandez believed he was participating in a TV show about mastering a skill in three months. The experiment showed that with the help of the chess computer, Pieters was able to defeat Fernandez by exploiting a small mistake. The anal bead theory originated from a Twitch stream and was later parodied in an episode of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia." While there is no evidence that the theory was ever used in actual cheating, it highlights the baseless nature of Magnus Carlsen's insinuation of foul play in a previous chess match.
