As soon as Sammy said this dude went to the family's home, I knew right away, that Sammy would do the right thing. You don't go to another man's house and exercise whatever power you think you have -- you have to have respect for someone else's home -- period. Good call Sammy, great decision making. -dc
He had the right to beat his ass and possibly kill him too. You don't go to another man's house with that BS. Great call Sammy as usual. Toddo was the Cosa Nostra Sensei and Sammy was his Bruce Lee. 🔫👍🏼
I used to hate Sammy the bull but now that I've read and watched a lot of his life I've got to admit I don't feel the same way I respect and love him. God bless you Sammy the bull gravano. LEGEND x
Many loud mouth phony or true tough guys think that they will always get a pass and be disrespectful. Wonder how he left the house after getting his ass handed over to him.
One of the Best real life stories I have ever heard, I was prying the fella was not going to get whacked. You represented Him with your life Sammy, always two sides to a storey. Really got my heart Pumping. Thanks for the great story amazing 🙏.
That’s how it’s supposed to be done. Somewhere in between is the truth. Like they say “There are three sides to a story,your side his side and the truth “
Sammy remembered the most important rule of a sit down: always make the guy you’re going against believe he’s smarter than you. When Vic Orena brought up Cosa Nostra Sammy pounced on that opening.
Yeah he turned that around. Proves Sammy is dangerous in more ways than one. Just imagine going to a meet thinking your deciding a guys life and then turns around the meeting changes to deciding your bothers life. DAMN
I know Joey B all my life, my father and Joey grew up together on Staten island. Joey had a small gym on Norway Ave, my father took me there when I was around 12 years old. Joey would put on the gloves and box with me, teach me. I never forgot that. Later on in life, I knew who he was and he always was a great guy to me. Helped me numerous times in life. Always was our friend. Knew his daughters, son's. The whole family, A LEGEND on Staten Island.
My father was a similar style story teller, hearing Sammy is like hearing my father. My children all were blessed with his story telling. Although he wasn't a made guy or anything, his stories were just as compelling and or hilarious. I can't say thanks enough Sammy. But my fathers famous phrase comes to mind. "Don't give thanks, give money".
I love it too, but bro... Please find a hobby or something. It will work well for your mental health. In prison people read, play cards, get into the law etc. It makes time way more fulfilling.
Thank you for sharing some of the things you been threw I love the content it's the highest level and again thank you for these Gems you're brilliant 🙏
Sammy i enjoy your stories and life lessons you share. You inspire many but for us younger guys who were always attracted to the streets who grew up in 90s and watched all of this as kids and to see you now tellong how it was is amazing. God Bless you and your family!
Thanks for sharing that story Joey was like an uncle to me growing up and I grew up around a lot of the guys you tell stories about I’ve even met your son once or twice He used to run around with some of the younger guys i dealt with I remember my friend telling me that Joey gave his uncle who was a made guy a beating and that he was in hot water I didn’t know any of the details until you told the story I can’t believe someone would enter Joes house and raise their hands to him He must of been suicidal or delusional Joe was old school cosa nostra and he led by example I learned a lot from him Joe was at my house 3 or 4 times a week and always laughing and joking around I always thought it was so funny that everyone feared him and I thought he was one of the nicest guys in the world RIP JB
Joey was so respectful to me and really looked out for me the times I met with him. In his older age was really just a lovely person, teaching CCD on tuesdays and his hobby with birds. Really amazing guy. I appreciate that story you told about him. Warmed my heart a little and made me crack a smile
Just learned that Sammy is 5’5”. The respect he earned was truly warranted. Seems like the most powerful guys are usually not very physical imposing, just the strongest in the mind and honorable
It does help to not care if you blow someone’s brains out and have a few hundred made guys and associates behind you, then size sure don’t matter at all
Mr. Gravanno, I just wanted to say that I love the channel and I love listening to your stories and I respect that you try to convey your wisdom and your thoughts and try to help people that are unaware of the way that the world, in the more obscure and criminal side of the world operates and the way that conflicts and disputes are handled, and the main reason why I love your channel is because you seem to be a very down to earth and just 100% real, nothing seems fake with you, there’s no fake Hollywood emotion in your voice or your mannerisms. I appreciate you taking your time to put out true stories about your life and most of all, for being kind enough to share your wisdom and your experiences with your subscribers and the world at large, and you have never disappointed me, your life must have been one hell of a roller coaster ride so to speak, but thank you very much sir, and I hope that you will be doing this thing you do for many years to come sir, God bless you and yours and I wish you infinite success in all of your endeavors both present and future, God bless you Sir and your family and I look forward to seeing what other stories you have in store for the future.

Sammy, these stories keep getting better an better bro, i felt like i was in the sit down when you were talking about it, absolute storytelling master, once again, thank you for bringing us these awesome clips mate 🤙
Born And Raised in Brooklyn I've been in a few situations in my life Where I had to save a few of my friends from getting murdered And I am grateful that they came up to me first before they did anything And I always appreciated that and always will
This is one of the best Sammy. I hate to say it but you have these other youtube LCN guys beat. This was a great story ! Being from Philly, I appreciated the Crazy Phil and Gene Milano part. Gene was one of the toughest guys in Philly at the time.
“Friend of ours” or not, ya don’t show up at another guys house in front of his family looking for trouble, then complain when trouble finds you! Sucks he got his ass kicked, but it sounds like he needed someone to take him down a few pegs. Some people get too comfortable and don’t give other people the respect they deserve
@@cristiangerardinobilityhou5410 afraid of someone? I have no clue where your comment is even relevant to what was said by anyone in here especially in response to what my comment was.
I feel like we've slipped into an alternate universe! Who would ever have thought even just 10 years ago that someone like Sammy The Bull Gravano would have a RUclips channel and be sharing his life stories with us directly! Michael Franzese just had a video with Donnie Brasco aswell. This stuff is gold, I'm loving it! I wonder who the next gangsters will be that start a RUclips channel? That only downside is that there will never be a bigger name than Sammy Gravano from now on. All the legends are dead or in jail now. At least we have Sammy though, the last of the true, classic, legendary Mafioso. One complaint though, there's getting to be way, way, way too many ads on the videos lately, it's getting too much.
In all of the high stakes sit downs Sammy was involved with, he always comes off like a genius lawyer who delivers the perfect closing argument to win his case. He remained calm & analyzed each incident logically without letting emotions taint his thinking. Its amazing how poised he remained when decisions meant either life & death. The lesson his stories teach is “doing the right thing” should be the mindset/motive behind every one of your actions. This way when others review your role in a situation, if they think “ I would have made that same move under the circumstances ” you will end up surviving.
@@justinlecroy3579 don't let those clouds blind you from reality from that seat on your high horse. Of course he hasn't always done the right thing. He admitted that. Hell he spent over 20 years in prison. He has 19 murders under his belt. We all know he hasn't done everything right. No one has. But he lived as close to right as he could given the life he was a part of.
The thing that is really remarkable is how exact,perfectly straight forward honest and precise there storylines are. no matter who is interviewing them they correct it or they will. Even if it makes them look bad or good in there favor. They accept it as long as it is happened as it did.
He was the underboss of the 2nd biggest family of the 5 in New York. He had plenty of power. Gangsters preferred to take their problems to Sammy instead of Gotti, who was the boss at the time.
@@sammygaudino8906 Carlo Gambino questioned Toddos judgment, brining his girlfriend to the same restaurant he brought his wife. "Toddo do you love me"? Carlo asked. "Yes" replies Toddo". "Do you love me the same way you love your wife"? The Cosa Nostra way. - as told by Sammy last year
NO ONE SHOULD BE A POLITICIAN. IF HE DID, HE COULD BE NOWHERE NEAR THE CORRUPTION OF THE CREATURES FROM THE DISTRICT OF CRIMINALS (DC). For all of those who follow the MSM narrative, I despise Trump as well. Left/Right, all the same sh!t.. Wake up
So in other words, the Mob has wayyy more morals then the DC Critters. I hope that made sense. The system is absolutely broken. Start growing food and look at self sustainability. God bless
Sammy, thank you for doing this channel. I am slowly working my way through all of these stores, which are fascinating. Take care of yourself, and keep making videos.
Sammy was such a balanced thinker. It was that quality that solidified his reputation particularly among powerful mob guys. They respected Sammy on another level.
I love hearing these story's from Sammy and the podcasts as well keep up the great work it shows you that not all gangsters where thugs they could be diplomatic as well and that violence should be used as a last resort
I have alot of respect for sammy, he comes off as a man of much reason and he looks for the facts first before jumping the gun, if it was sammy that was boss instead of John, things would have turned out really different
@@CRAIG5835 I doubt that, I honestly think sammy would have got wacked. Gotti was starting to put everything together. He was starting to suspect sammy was coming to him saying all these guys were bad mouthing gotti and so gotti would give sammy permission to have them killed but gotti was starting to think sammy had been lieing and having all these guys killed to take there businesses ...
Meh, even though he 'flipped' co-operated and testified etc. etc. listening to these anecdotes is compelling. His way of talking is hypnotising and he comes across as genuinely funny. He'd have been a hoot to party with....
Hey Mr G I love listening to these great stories I subscribed to your channel thanks for the great entertainment best mob stories I've ever heard. God bless you and your family. Ps I hope your daughter Karen is doing well.
As a civilian from that area, at that time I vividly remember the violent ongoing massacres going on that Sammy described. Living in Bay Ridge at the time, riding my bicycle around I went into a local bagel store. The place sucked. Hardly anything in the refrigerator and a few stale bagels in the bin. I got a drink and a rock hard bagel and left. A week later the “kid” Sammy described behind the counter was murdered in the store. One of my brushes with greatness. Lol. The thing is if you lived in those days in that area it was all around you. Always once or twice removed from the goings on of la cosa nostra.
Everyone knows what Mr. Gravano has done and what he's capable of... But I'd feel totally safe with him around my kids. Get Sammy a drink and lets watch some tv lol. I have the utmost respect for you.
Guys like Sammy and Michael are killing television mob documentary's, getting first hand information like this is priceless.
This is addictive! I've been watching Sammys videos for 10+ hrs! And Still looking for more!
Same
"Ditto!!!!!"

Time for a sit down with Sammy, love the stories, keep them coming.
Always a true Gangster Sammy "The Bull" Your stories are critical to history. Thank you.
Sammy I think you do a fantastic job telling these stories.I felt like I was at the table of that sitdown.
A ton of Respect! So much wisdom, a good listener, and good words. You should have been the boss. Good health, and longevity to you Mr G.
Man this is going to make this rush hour traffic bearable 👏
Every time!
Drink a couple of beers and get a milk jug so you can so you can piss.... enjoy the story. Be careful there's a lot of crazy drivers out there
Closing at Dunks ain't that pleasant either cry me a river lol
@@SandriaGuest I don't understand?
@@slickric2176 I got the notification when I was closing at Dunkin' and dying to get home
Sammy, these stories keep getting better an better bro, i felt like i was in the sit down when you were talking about it, absolute storytelling master, once again, thank you for bringing us these awesome clips mate 🤙
Jesus Christ.
This guy is one of the best story tellers I have ever heard.
Great story Sammy, we’re watching you all the way from Australia 🇦🇺
Love the videos Sammy! Happy St. Patrick’s day from Ireland 🇮🇪☘️
Born And Raised in Brooklyn I've been in a few situations in my life Where I had to save a few of my friends from getting murdered And I am grateful that they came up to me first before they did anything And I always appreciated that and always will
This is one of the best Sammy. I hate to say it but you have these other youtube LCN guys beat. This was a great story ! Being from Philly, I appreciated the Crazy Phil and Gene Milano part. Gene was one of the toughest guys in Philly at the time.
Me n my old man love listening to ur stories. Don't stop
“Friend of ours” or not, ya don’t show up at another guys house in front of his family looking for trouble, then complain when trouble finds you! Sucks he got his ass kicked, but it sounds like he needed someone to take him down a few pegs. Some people get too comfortable and don’t give other people the respect they deserve
Fact!! Personally he would have never made it out of my home to cry about his beating he deserved
@@michaelmcdonald4699 You are afraid of someone?
The severity of his beating might actually have saved his life. Irony?
@@cristiangerardinobilityhou5410 afraid of someone? I have no clue where your comment is even relevant to what was said by anyone in here especially in response to what my comment was.
@@michaelmcdonald4699 , 💯
I am absolutely riveted as you tell your stories. You don’t hold back. Thank you for letting us “in” and giving us an inside perspective.
Best mob stories out right now keep it up sir!
That was wicked good. Thank you and keep well bless you and your entourage.
John Gotti never had the makings of a varsity athlete.
@Gshi _ you must not have ever seen The Sopranos?
Hothouse Flower
Haha
We ain’t never gonna see another athlete like Gotti if we live to be 5000
@The Patient Wolf Maybe you didn't hear about it, you been away a long time, I don't shine shoes anymore.
Wow the way you tell your stories such honesty and authenticity Sammy keep up the good work. Much respect for you Bro. Awesome as always.
I could sit with this man an listen for days.
I feel like we've slipped into an alternate universe! Who would ever have thought even just 10 years ago that someone like Sammy The Bull Gravano would have a RUclips channel and be sharing his life stories with us directly! Michael Franzese just had a video with Donnie Brasco aswell. This stuff is gold, I'm loving it! I wonder who the next gangsters will be that start a RUclips channel? That only downside is that there will never be a bigger name than Sammy Gravano from now on. All the legends are dead or in jail now. At least we have Sammy though, the last of the true, classic, legendary Mafioso.
One complaint though, there's getting to be way, way, way too many ads on the videos lately, it's getting too much.
The Ads grease the palm
@@joelewertow5979 Well if the ads grease the palm, there are sooo many ads now that the whole video feels like a greaseball.....
Can only be 1 Outcome surely..!!
The ads are 'top earners.'
In all of the high stakes sit downs Sammy was involved with, he always comes off like a genius lawyer who delivers the perfect closing argument to win his case. He remained calm & analyzed each incident logically without letting emotions taint his thinking. Its amazing how poised he remained when decisions meant either life & death. The lesson his stories teach is “doing the right thing” should be the mindset/motive behind every one of your actions. This way when others review your role in a situation, if they think “ I would have made that same move under the circumstances ” you will end up surviving.
Well said
He's always the genius and right about everything, just ask him. He's definitely always "done the right thing" hasn't he? LMAO at you gullible people.
@@justinlecroy3579 don't let those clouds blind you from reality from that seat on your high horse. Of course he hasn't always done the right thing. He admitted that. Hell he spent over 20 years in prison. He has 19 murders under his belt. We all know he hasn't done everything right. No one has. But he lived as close to right as he could given the life he was a part of.
The thing that is really remarkable is how exact,perfectly straight forward honest and precise there storylines are. no matter who is interviewing them they correct it or they will. Even if it makes them look bad or good in there favor. They accept it as long as it is happened as it did.
Jesus! I wasn't even involved with this and I was still scared shitless!
You're a wise man Sammy. I think if you had been on the streets much longer, you really would have gained alot of power.
He was the underboss of the 2nd biggest family of the 5 in New York. He had plenty of power. Gangsters preferred to take their problems to Sammy instead of Gotti, who was the boss at the time.
Looks like Toddo’s lessons served you well. He was a wise man I guess and were happy Sammy don't worry.
Was just thinking the same thing
Wasn't toddo the guy running around on his wife...And Carlo Gambino questioned him being loyal....
Toddo taught Sammy well
I was thinking the EXACT same thing.
It was almost a continuation of the story Sammy told about Toddo several weeks ago.
@@sammygaudino8906 Carlo Gambino questioned Toddos judgment, brining his girlfriend to the same restaurant he brought his wife.
"Toddo do you love me"? Carlo asked.
"Yes" replies Toddo".
"Do you love me the same way you love your wife"?
The Cosa Nostra way. - as told by Sammy last year
Sir, you gotta keep making these. I am now addicted to them on my long drives. Thank you and God bless
Sammy should've been a politician. He hears both sides and makes the logical right decision.
He learnt that from Tito earlier podcast about him getting into the Gambino family
NO ONE SHOULD BE A POLITICIAN. IF HE DID, HE COULD BE NOWHERE NEAR THE CORRUPTION OF THE CREATURES FROM THE DISTRICT OF CRIMINALS (DC). For all of those who follow the MSM narrative, I despise Trump as well. Left/Right, all the same sh!t.. Wake up
So in other words, the Mob has wayyy more morals then the DC Critters. I hope that made sense. The system is absolutely broken. Start growing food and look at self sustainability. God bless
I don't think that's what politicians do haha
Sammy, thank you for doing this channel. I am slowly working my way through all of these stores, which are fascinating. Take care of yourself, and keep making videos.
Sammy was such a balanced thinker. It was that quality that solidified his reputation particularly among powerful mob guys. They respected Sammy on another level.

Too bad they had Gotti as boss, getting all kinds of attention
every story Sammy tells always ends up with him being the toughest, smartest, the greatest guy, the hero
Sammy anything about Jackie Nose D'Amico? Guy has been around forever, could even be active still.
Please keep the stories coming. I thoroughly enjoy every single video and podcast.
_"Trow 'em in da fuckin' street"_ - I miss old Brooklyn.
I love hearing these story's from Sammy and the podcasts as well keep up the great work it shows you that not all gangsters where thugs they could be diplomatic as well and that violence should be used as a last resort
I clicked faster than these mafia guys taking a deal with the feds
Love the content
Lmfaoooooo 💀
All jokes asides they were smart, Scarpa being the smartest lmaoo fucking guy was a gta character
Who would’ve known? Sammy was a lil angel who was misunderstood. I guess you can write your own history when everyone else is dead.
Ex mafia underboss to famous youtube star. This world truly is a work of art
You have more wisdom and business abilities than any "legitimate" entrepreneur I've ever met
I have alot of respect for sammy, he comes off as a man of much reason and he looks for the facts first before jumping the gun, if it was sammy that was boss instead of John, things would have turned out really different
I mean he would have likely just eventually been arrested or murdered like every other big mob figure.
Ya, I don't think it would of have been much different. Might have takin a few more years but lcn's day were numbered regardless..
He prolly whacks Gotti, woulda been his finest move.
@@CRAIG5835 I doubt that, I honestly think sammy would have got wacked. Gotti was starting to put everything together. He was starting to suspect sammy was coming to him saying all these guys were bad mouthing gotti and so gotti would give sammy permission to have them killed but gotti was starting to think sammy had been lieing and having all these guys killed to take there businesses ...
@@CRAIG5835 oh sorry nevermind. I got confused and thought I was responding to a different comment. My bad
AMAZING STORY, JUST MEMORIZING. I HONESTLY FELT LIKE I WAS SITTING NEXT TO SAMMY!!!! WOW!!!!
I NEED MORE SAMMY!!!
I love your content Sammy! My favorite RUclips channel!
✌❤🙏
Master story teller and communicator. I can not get enough.
Such a good storyteller. Really enjoy, my bedtime story.
Best video yet. Incredible story telling Sammy. Thanks
We love you Sammy
Keep em' coming 💯💯💯
He was frustrated, he made a mistake, he got a beating!! Love it!!
22:11 I love how Sammy always says "This Joe Watts" instead of just "Joe Watts". :)
Hates his guts!🤣
Feels like he's saying "This... thing."
Wow!!! One hell of a thing!! thanks Sammy for sharing the experience pal Be blessed.
Meh, even though he 'flipped' co-operated and testified etc. etc. listening to these anecdotes is compelling. His way of talking is hypnotising and he comes across as genuinely funny. He'd have been a hoot to party with....
Hey Mr G I love listening to these great stories I subscribed to your channel thanks for the great entertainment best mob stories I've ever heard. God bless you and your family. Ps I hope your daughter Karen is doing well.
As a civilian from that area, at that time I vividly remember the violent ongoing massacres going on that Sammy described. Living in Bay Ridge at the time, riding my bicycle around I went into a local bagel store. The place sucked. Hardly anything in the refrigerator and a few stale bagels in the bin. I got a drink and a rock hard bagel and left. A week later the “kid” Sammy described behind the counter was murdered in the store. One of my brushes with greatness. Lol. The thing is if you lived in those days in that area it was all around you. Always once or twice removed from the goings on of la cosa nostra.
That’s the best told story I have heard from you,fer play for keeping it real.
"Your brother looks like he got hit by a car".....LOLOL. DAMN. 😂
Tough lesson,,, ✝💕🇮🇹
I like how Sammy tells a story, feel like im there. Appreciate his honesty.
Everyone knows what Mr. Gravano has done and what he's capable of... But I'd feel totally safe with him around my kids. Get Sammy a drink and lets watch some tv lol. I have the utmost respect for you.
Around ur kidd??? Complete stranger.... Smfh
Seriously he would take out you and your family if t benefited him.
Show some respect...
@@adamkatcher694 you've watched The Godfather too many times.
allan wallace I’m with Adam on this one. Every man is capable of killing. Some are just put into situations where they have too.
I enjoy listening to Sammy, reminds me of my uncles and father sitting in our kitchen talking when I was small.
"my friends" ?!?!
C'mon Sammy, don't do us like that.
I thought the same thing. It's supposed to be "adios mothafuckas." Lol
Loving your stories, I can listen to your stories all night.
