I was expecting something with Sauron, a hobbit and a ring with the inscription 37. d6.

I expected Carlsen to be a crocodile again. It was funnier.

Is Carlsen a involuntary victim of well-meant humour? The dose of humour seems too high to has a good reason.

If someone wants, let him uncover the details for me, I'll accept whatever. If no one wants to do it everybody of us is free to choose how to see the picture. This is my word.

Why only Aronian and Caruana have something in his ears?

Because Aronian and Caruana do not loose to Carlsen considering the Classical and Rapid results.

Again funny and so striking. It speaks for itself. Like always, after watching a bit, I found some more details and metaphors.
But I have to mention, these kind of clock (Kuckucksuhr) is from Black Forrest, Germany.

Only Nakamura is not afraid of him, and partly Aronian.

With a combined score of 4-16 against him and no win in five years maybe they would do better if they were a bit afraid.

Uhm, Carlsen lost f.i. against Caruana just a couple of months ago at the Tal memorial. It seems to me that those who are not intimidated (or irritated, like Gelfand is) by his antics, those who play at their normal level, have decent scores against Carlsen. Nakamura is clearly not one of them btw, but apart from afraid he is also clearly weaker.

Yes, Aronian is intimidated by Carlsen, that's why he hasn't won in five years, And Kramnik is intimidated, that's why he hasn't beaten him in four years. And Grischuk is too, that's why he never has beaten him. Oh, and Toplaov and Ivanchuk, that's why their score against Carlsen is so bad. And Anand, of course. Naka is not intimidated, just weaker.

OH is the Bird Carlsen. I thought it was Aronian. Looks like him same glasses and chin.
Anyway I dont see any humor in this.
Saw funnier things before.

You are the fool. Kramnik hasn't beaten Carlsen since 2010, and their classical score is 4 - 4.
