We also owe time increment (the Fischer clock) and Chess960 (Fischer Random Chess) to him.
It would have been nice to complement the article with some of his games.
One of his major accomplishments was to defeat Larsen and Taimanov 6 to 0 in candidate matches.

Even in 1992 after 20 years of hiatus, he defeated Spassky, who had remained active all the time.

The Allthing of Iceland unanimously granted him Icelandic citizenship so he could leave captivity in Japan.
Fischer had entered Japan with a valid passport and then his passport had been rescinded, so he could not leave Japan.

I don't see how it's from Wikipedia. The writing does not match.
The article says Fischer beat Spassky 12.5-11.5. That is false. He beat Spassky 12.5-8.5
"He beat Spassky 12.5-8.5"
* And that after starting 0-2!
