The President's Tailor Survived the Holocaust

Martin Greenfield's story is extraordinary. He was liberated from Auschwitz as a 15 year old and immigrated to the United States in 1947. Grateful for freedom and his new life, Greenfield decided to fashion President Eisenhower a custom three-piece suit. Since then, Greenfield has created beautiful custom suits for every American president.

"I don't copy anybody, everybody copies my suits." haha!

[@LucarioDoT]

A tale of sadness and strength...it is a pity that there are people that feverently deny the horrors he had to face...or hate him just because of his background of being Jewish.
This channel truly has many amazing stories that you wouldn't hear otherwise. Thank you.

[@tomtom-yk6bw]

Why would anyone dislike this? This is so beautiful.

[@angeloveloso5004]

Because they're neo nazis and antisemites.

[@DerHalbeEuro]

He never lost his smile despite all the things he have been going through in life. A very positive and inspiring man👍

[@stephenoz602]

"I don't copy anyone. everyone copies me "

[@sreekar5691]

Just heard he passed away 2 weeks ago. Rest in peace, Martin Greenfield, after all he went through, he never lost his smile!

[@Rudster14]

After seeing this video I went and got a suit made from his store for my 21st birthday!

[@ChelseaH1]

I love love love this channel!❤️

[@freddelmuto6288]

Again loved this video

[@hahayeah2779]

1:04 The picture of the boy which details the Holocaust, if anyone is interested in the history of that there is a book called "The Boy"

[@emilydeleon2224]

2:57 I think the dude to the right of Obama is my music teacher 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@toddnyc1642]

a real survivor. Thank you Martin!

[@sophiasoh1623]

Amazing to see someone survive from such an infamous place

[@dananjayagomez6108]

Love from LA

[@beathecat6604]

This video is so important! It’s so comforting to see signs of our Jewish survival in business and creation.

[@Songster-qq4fi]

Imagine measuring Donald Trump.

[@PriscillaAustin]

no.

[@ER-kh4on]

+Priscilla Austin hahaha good one

[@claytonpoon7764]

the wrist collars would have to be so small to fit his tiny hands

[@SurrealTouch]

Eve Kopelman It needs to be HUUUUUGE!

[@maxcrawford5060]

Eve Kopelman he does have a shitty tailer

[@kylerenne794]

I love this guy

[@Faris572]

The true Kingsman :) May you live longer

[@AnhTuPhucDerrickHoangCanada]

dang cool

[@ovenscornyboy6666]

It's a good story

[@XxzombilovaxX]

Wonder if he will measure whomever our next president is...really cool guy

[@imaxdigital7052]

I don't think the 45th deserves a suit made by this man, and certainly doesn't want one.

[@TheGamingParadise22]

Now this guy,has to measure trump.......

[@stentorcoeruleus4835]

TheGamingParadise he's gonna need a longer measuring tape

[@imaxdigital7052]

Trump wouldn't wear a fitted suit if his life depended on it. Funny how all the money in the world can't buy you good taste in fashion.

[@DangItshere]

easy..... big boddy small hands

[@gregmarrero3400]

Oh, I thought fat shaming was a bad thing?

[@kennedysharpe3924]

Who else thought it said trailor and was trying to figure out which president be was?

[@max_jimenez]

Wow

[@uniworkhorse]

Heard this guy on invisibila

[@nehasunil7780]

I dont copy others, they copy me...😂😂

[@soda5169]

respect for president ` s Tailor

[@fallartifact8904]

Forrest Gump at 1:54

[@dingdingdingding5544]

Why did he change his name to an English one again?

[@KingdomCome257]

He loves America so much

[@AZTECNINJAWARRIOR]

It's catchier, especially if you want to name your business after yourself. Easier to read/pronounce.

[@PrincessIzusu]

Some people feel it's patriotic to take on an English name when they come to America. They feel more American. Of course, what being American means varies from person to person, so name changing may not feel necessary, or even seem to work for some people.

[@ChayaEitan]

Many famous actors Anglicized their names. Just Google: Jewish actors who changed their names.

[@BryonLetterman]

Immigrants to the US have changed or altered their names for a long time to make their names easier to pronounce and spell. It saves them trouble from confusion later on

[@JH-vd5cf]

this video needs like 5 000 000 clicks !!!!! :(

[@macyfastenau2678]

you people are talking about trump being measured yet trump has his own suit line (?)

[@shaw6311]

cool video but the suits shown in the videos dont seem to fit very well

[@jmsanchez_69]

Yoyo

[@Pepeshogun1]

Who are the people who have the nasty heart to dislike this video

[@project0624]

If the Russians got to him first it would've been all different.

[@za88y]

lol

[@benjamintekin616]

he's actually only made suits for 4 presidents, I looked it up

[@ilijazz]

Benjamin Tekin what the fuck the you mean only. how many people do you know that made a suit for more presidents.

[@vandamme6379]

ilias 2405
I made 20 suits for 20 presidents.

[@agbook2007]

This guy for president!

[@Jimbro0o0o0]

i feel sorry for this guy cause not trump is going to ask for a suit and he's going to have to make one

[@Windiddy]

[@Maxd75kai]

[@obsolentbutcool3431]

[@agoose6296]

[@lewis6703]
