Just curious. Has any genius ever announced a forced mate in like 10 moves or over?

I guess I am looking for people who announced a forced mate that was upheld by postgame analysis AND computer analysis of master games where the computer discovered a long forced mate in a game that the masters missed.

All those stories around the "announcements of mate" are a bit "shakey" I think...
(vs. unknown - possibly DannyVM - Vienna 1921)
I for one would not announce the mate as this would only help the opponent to find a way out of the mess 😛
