The real embarrassment came when the Grandmaster beat me using the Bongcloud defense. Totally ruined my golden hour.

Was anyone else nervous Trent was going to get knocked off the mountain at 1:03?

My secret strategy is to buy time sacrificing the pawns while combining the backrow into one mega Gundam piece. 60% of the time it works 100% of the time.

Next video should be like a Rocky movie training montage where Trent becomes a chess expert and beats the Grandmaster!

A rookie move not working on your chess skills before going on a hike!

I found the cheat code to beat grandmaster mountain man.
1. set up a fool's mate
2. tell him you've been playing his pieces the whole time
3. apologize profusely
4. ask politely to flip the board around.
If it works you will checkmate your opponent. You may now ascend the mountainside. Comment below if it worked!

chessmate? Trent might have won by technicality since he said that instead of checkmate

The sorry sliders fella by the mud slides I hear rewards you with kisses for every game piece you take from him

This feels like an analogy to dealing with bureaucracy or something like that.
Like…. You are trying to do something about renewing your drivers license, and then suddenly you have to be REEEAAALLY good at math or something…

This is why I never go on hikes. Too many masters out there and there's too much to learn and I'm just one silly little guy.

It's okay, Trent. The checkers guy just by the river is a lot easier. You might get a glimpse of the sun set from there.

Gatekeeping the top of the moutain. The Grandmaster is such a sociopath.
