How about Magnus falling asleep during the match.
Haha, you're right! This is a great vid montage here. (I'm not trying to make fun of him in a mean way though.) Hours and hours of high class chess has got to be taxing, and on top of that winning. I don't blame him for looking this exhausted.

Personally, I think Carlson out-preped Anand. Anand can beat Magnus; he has before. But, here I think Magnus preped the crap out of himself, lost some sleep over it, and came in better prepared. Of coarse, Anand hanging that Rook out to dry helped Carlson a bit, I think.
What can one say? We all blunder.
Who would win arm wrestling?
How could you lose? You had more pieces.

My guess is Carlsen... he shares pics on Facebook of him playing different sports (biking, tennis, swimming, bowling, and the list goes on) though I think it's just for recreation. But still. He's younger than Anand and probably has the energy. That's my guess

Nice guess, I wonder how I would do against him in arm wrestling, he's younger although.

I have 17.75 inch biceps. I think I can take him.
(The truth is: the length of the forearm has more to do with winning in arm wrestling)
How about the age of the arm wrestlers, would that matter?

And another question, is tickling allowed in an arm wrestling match? How about in chess? Can we tickle our opponent? tahahaha
Depends where you tickle, lol.
How was he awoken?
