Stephen Hawking faces Paul Rudd in epic chess match (feat. Keanu Reeves)

Welcome to the future, it's 27:16 and it's great, but it's almost not. 700 years ago Paul Rudd changed the course of history by showing the world that anyone could deal with the concepts of quantum mechanics, unleashing an era of invention and ingenuity the likes of which humanity had never seen, but the great one almost let this opportunity slip away, so for the sake of our future in this force to send a message 700 years back along the time axis to prevent its failure, what is this Paul? I didn't wake you up. There's a role for this guy who gets his teeth kicked in.

I thought you would be perfect. Hey Matt, this is going to sound weird, but I think I just got an email from you from 700 years in the future. No wonder it doesn't age once you really master interlocking communication through tight curves in the form of time it should be easy oh yeah that makes a lot of sense hey man next time you talk to me in the future find out if I'm still playing with my dog ​​from the band. song, okay, I'm hanging up now hanging up, yeah, hi, I'm Paul Rudd, I'm calling to ask you why you didn't invite me to speak on a tangled night Stephen Hawking no, um, you can open me up without credentials, what are they?

Are you talking about me going down? How about I beat your precious expert in a game of quantum

chess

? The winner will be able to give the public speech tomorrow. No problem. Can. Can. That is easy. Look. It's totally easy. Hello, Hello, Hello, Siri, could you? call Stephen Hawking colleague Stephen Hawking you hey, it's this Stephen Hawking, this is dr. Hawking well, this is mr. Rudd, whose hours of operation are 3 to 5 p.m. m. oh no, look, I'm just calling to challenge you to a game of quantum

chess

and the winner will get to give the keynote address at Cal Poly hmm, you mean Caltech, what qualifies you to talk about quantum mechanics?

Well, I'm an Actors Equity since Union Theater, but I've also been in the quantum realm. I've been there. I have seen it. I felt it. And you, Big Shot? What have you done? Ok, hug, you're on I'll do it. I will crush you like a final man, ah, so you know who I am. See you online at 5 p.m. GMT GMT was GMT means that, like hahaha or something, quantum chess is a variant of normal chess in which each piece is endowed with quantum powers. Take this queen for example, unlock her true powers and this quantum queen can move twice in a single turn. there is an equal chance that the Queen has never moved the opponent can attack any of the Queen's positions forcing her to reveal her true location by pure chance the Queen is really there the bishop's quantum movement is nullified the Queen wins this battle No I understand none of this this is just a glimpse of the new possibilities the total power of quantum chess is much greater as our history will reveal oh oh I'm probably going to lose that must have a chess book and all these ah illegal cheating never again ever again yes I think I'm ready Are you ready Paul?

I'll make this quick and painful at some point. That's not a typo. Oh at 12:03 p.m. Eastern Standard Time On January 12, 2016, the battle for the future began. It is a story that has been told for generations. The game began with what seemed like a standard opening, but dr. Hawking was setting up actor Rudd for a legal trap that could have ended the game and our future before he even had a chance. Oh come on, that's legal cheating because he's trying to beat me to regular chess moves that almost took five minutes. What a colossal waste! of my time, you fell into one of the oldest traps in the book, checkmate, that's right, Redmayne, and you fell into one of the newest ones from Schrodinger's king.

Rudd's King actor was now in two places at once in quantum superposition, the doctor had to pick one and hoped the wave function would collapse in his favor the superposition maybe this guy isn't so new the group I took him for just as Schrodinger's famous cat Rudd's King was dead and alive because of that uncertainty the game had to continue by simply delaying the inevitable. I'm guessing, but you seem worried, so with a brilliant counterattack, Hawking leveled the playing field, the game soon became a grueling marathon, trap after trap, faint after faint, the battle continued, but finally its balance tipped to favor of doctors.

Ruud was down. until his last two pieces our future was hanging by a thread ah got you now Brian Fantana a close

match

presumption now save some dignity okay my king is in super position I only have one move left to turn the tables how can I get my bishop up the edge with my king in the way OMG, what if the pieces could somehow pass through each other? A clever rod move created one last chance to win the

match

. The destinies of his bishop and his king were now linked by the power of quantum entanglement.

What happened was that one failure, it doesn't matter. I'm ending this dr. Hawking took advantage of his perceived advantage by using quantum motion to crush actor Rudd's king with both pieces in the same space. A quantum measurement was needed to decide whether Rudd's king was dead or alive and well with the bishop in position for checkmate. Yes Yes. Shabbat checkmate okay Kiana cow what's up my friend Bill and Ted that will work so well right now shut up Ted oh yeah that's it of course thank you shut up Ted on that celebrated day , actor Paul Rudd de

feat

ed the greatest mind of his generation, Dr.

Stephen Hawking in a game of quantum chess the children who would one day revolutionize physics saw the walls fall Paul had opened the universe of possibilities my present and your future will be eternally grateful for how I did not touch the mess of your bishop dr. Hawking surrounds us and penetrates us unites the galaxy is you
