Respect my lack of authority.
And the answer is:
White move the bishop to D2 and then will checkmate no matter what black moves.
Old shit was here. Now it's gone.
White 2 D2 doesn`t force a move.... that is the bit I couldn`t understand, must force move on first go or how could it be 2-1 moves (definite)..... I did go through many ideas but I couldn`t solve, not sure this solves either however. Gimmie the moves and prove me wrong (happy to learn)
I`ve watched the video and it is still messing with my head :S. My mind couldn`t cover that many permutations it seems.
Thanks for the puzzle anyway, I do hate it when I can`t solve `em but there you go.....

White's first move: bishop to D2.
If the black bishop captures the white bishop then white Queen move to D4 (checkmate).
If the black rook captures the white knight then white Queen move to E1 (checkmate).
If the black knight captures the white knight then white Queen move to F4 or E1 (checkmate).
If the black pawn advances to C5 then white Rook move to D5 (checkmate).
LE: Perhaps you haven't saw the black King placed to E5.

I think I just ruptured something in my neocortex.

Do I win?
If so, if it's anything from Romania then I don't want it.
