My Google Alerts has returned another find, a video titled "Jerome Gambit madness", by @Utkarshchess123.
It features a Jerome Gambit (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 Bc5 4.Bxf7+)
ending in checkmate (not quite). The final position, arising
out of Whistler's Defense, is actually a checkmate in 5 for Black.
It is another object lesson that White should not grab the poisoned Rook
on offer.
Readers can add 14.Kc3 Qc4+ 15.Kd2 Nf6 16.Qg7+ (every move loses)
Kxg7 17.Nc3 Qxd4+ 18.Ke1 Qxf2#
