The Blackburne Shilling Jerome Gambit.
4...Kxf7 5.Nxe5+ Ke8 6.Qh5+ g6 7.Nxg6
Each side enjoys Knight tactics.
7...Qf6
Black decides not to go down the rabbit hole of 7...hxg6 8.Qxh8 Nxc2+ 9.Kd1 Nxa1 10.Qxg8 Qg5, although it would bring him a small advantage.
However, this turns the game over to White.
8.Nxh8+ Kd8 9.d3
Chosing not to horse around with 9.Nf7+ Ke7 10.d3 Qxf7 11.Qc5+ d6 12.Qxd4 - introducing a threat that is overlooked.
9...Nxc2+ 10.Kd1 Nxa1 11.Bg5 Black resigned
Ouch.
