What do you think (elaborate, pleas).

Possibly, but the amount of surgery involved would probably be cost prohibitive.

Is surgery permited by FIDE? i think it is not, otherway everybody would do so..

Agreed it might also be a dangerous surgery for people of a certain age.  I mean so much bodily change at a certain age is only going to make the surgical rejection harder to deal with.

Grandhamstery is not under the jurisdiction of FIDE. You will have to refer to the bylaws of the FIDH

Well, i believe that with an intense training and focus, an average person can probably at least gain a title like National Master.

Yes, you can get to Grandhamster, but you have to train with this engine:

Well, we're talking about years of trainings and tournements and international competitions. It's not something that everyone can do, that's for sure. One must be talented too I mean it's like in any other sports or games to win at high levels you've got to show hard work but some skills and talent as well. I've read somewhere that only about 5% of all chess players become GM. So, the maths does not think it likely that everyone can achieve that.

Few hamsters make it here. Grandhamsters go through at least 1 trillion wheel rotations to get the title.

First of all, you'll need to hamster this choregraphy

Good luck with your training

That video was quite hamsterful! 3:30, and it only seemed like 15 minutes! Laughing
