@@BennyEggs... no question he can manipulate, charm or lie and for sure is good at it. Hard to hide it, if you are trained. He showed no eye movement or mannerism that would indicate to me this story or parts of the story are a lie.
I can't imagine what life would be like if everyday you are stealing, beating, and murdering people. What does that do to your psyche? Also you see a lot of people dying along the way that you enjoy being with. It's a hard life.

I'm no murderer or thief but I can definitely tell you how it feels to see people die regularly and get yourself back from the gates of death repeatedly and what that does to your psyche.

KJS, I Do apologize for jumping the gun. I realize that you were only quoting Sammy when he said "I'm a little guy in height" and yes it is true, Sammy is a little guy but makes up for it in strength and attitude. Sammy is very smart when it comes to businesses and how to make money legitimately. I give Sammy a lot of credit For knowing how to make money with his legitimate businesses but once again I do sincerely apologize for over stepping my bounds. I guess I had my head up my ass that day when I accused you of being Sammy but I did catch someone in a lie when he pretended to be John Alite.. SORRY AGAIN !
I don't know if these guys exhibit respect, they definitely exhibit the glorified and mythological version of respect... If they really respected each other the Mafia wouldn't exist The price most of them paid out weighed the rewards. The moral victories in their stories are told from the survivors perspective because the dead can't speak.
There aren't many guys who ever get out of prison having admitted to 19 killings. Having said that he is a great story teller. We're only hearing about incidents that he's already admiited to, there must be just as much if not more we will never hear about or he could find his way back inside.

But you just hope your kids don't go too far down a bad road before it's impossible to turn back. I think thats very true.
I tend to listen to these before bed. It’s like bed time stories for Adults. The scene where Sammy confronts the nephew, literally felt like I was in the room watching it play out. Thanks for sharing Sammy!
His mouth was probably why he snatched outside Henry's Hill's bar and later killed. Him being Carlo's nephew let him run his mouth but it doesnt let him make accusations like that. As far as I know he wasnt a made guy but just a punk. Everybody from Gambino to presidents even Hitler had a bum, useless nephew to plague them and bring trouble.
Carlo was a soft spoken man of honor. He would straighten his nephew out rather than defend him for acting like a jerk off. That’s one reason Carlo was a great leader.
If you think that's ballsy, you should read his book "Underboss: Sammy the Bull Gravano's Story of Life in the Mafia". (Highly Recommend to all) Peter Maas wrote it in Sammy's voice and there's a chapter about a falling out Sammy had with Louie DiBono - a soldier in the crew of Capo Pat Conti. DiBono fell $200k in arrears to Sammy/his drywall company and I won't tell the story, Sammy can you PLEASE tell that story? That is another RIVETING story! Sammy was summoned by Castellano over their beef and what happened is LEGENDARY! Sammy if you haven't already, please tell that story! Thank you.
What a storyteller. Mr. Gravano has a way of relating his memories to let the audience feel like they were there...observing like being in the safety of a movie theatre. Its a gift, and his stories are more than captivating.

Can you talk about any relationship you may have had with any of the guys from the Goodfellas movie, Henry Hill, Jimmy the Gent, Paul Varrio etc. Or maybe any relation with Donnie Brasco, Lefty Ruggerio Sonny Black etc. Love listening to your stories on your channel.
Heard that!! Maybe a weekly or monthly interview too...I wonder if Mikey Scars DiLeonardo would be on board? He is a great storyteller and would have a lot of stories...Scars entire family was in the mob for generations...wealth of information

Mr. Gravano, you are doing something really wonderful here. You are documenting something very important. Yes, it is all fascinating and entertaining. But even more, this is incredibly valuable historical documentation. I had no idea your channel existed until I logged into RUclips on this old account and saw your Tijuana video among my recommendations. This may be the best recommendation I've ever had from them. Really, I'm somewhat surprised you don't have an historian and/or sociologist from a university working with you on this. I hope that you are making backups of your content to ensure that this material is preserved no matter what happens to RUclips. I still feel slightly sick from your account of that super max prison, by the way. I am no one important but if I can ever be of service in an effort to put and end to such hell on Earth please don't hesitate to let me know. I will do what I can, for free of course, as pro bono work. Thank you for your wonderful cultural and historical contributions, sir.
He already said that trump had to deal with the mob if he wanted to build anything i New York because they ran all the unions. He said every developer had to, no matter what. He also said trump was helping Giuliani to bring them down , i guess he didn’t like the fact he had to pay extra money to a bunch of gangsters to get his buildings built 😂 Michal Franzese also said this.
Trump wouldn't sue any of the Mafia guys, he doesn't see them as the enemy. Communist bankers and their little bolshevik marxist pawns are attacking him from every angle; that's his focus.

@@QuasiELVIS he’s done like 7 videos, calm down. That’s the whole point of him having a RUclips and podcast, is to tell stories people want to hear. So calm
Thank you for these stories friend, it's very kind of you to share them. Peace:)
Thank you Sammy for these stories! I’m sure you lost many friends and it’s difficult to go through these stories. But we appreciate you doing this.
I REMEMBER WHEN BACK IN THE DAY,SAMMY & JOHN WERE ON T.V EVERYDAY.
NOW,THIRTY YEARS LATER,SAMMY TELLING THESE TALES.
REALLY SHOWS WHAT A GIFTED PERFORMER PACINO REALLY IS. THESE CLIPS,ESPECIALLY SINCE SAMMY HAS AGED,REALLY REMINDS ME THINK OF MANY PACINO ROLES.
Me too Bro
Would love to see you do a video about being in with Phil Leonetti and about working with Scarfo
"I dont just tell stories, I re-live them."
Sammy, I was wondering if you could do a video on Tommy DeSimone. What he was like, who killed him, what his reputation on the street was like, etc. Jimmy Burke stories would be great too if you have any.
Yeah
Most have said DiSimone was not near as crazy as goodfellas made him out to be.
@@rolltide9547 michael franzese did a video about desimone recently and said Tommy had a reputation as being a tough guy as well as a loose cannon. Pretty much said he was crazy
@@rolltide9547 he was crazier than the movie....he shot some random guy for no reason in broad daylight and the shocked guy that was with him asked why he did that? DeSimone said "because I'm a mean cat!!" 👀
@Mike how did you know Tommy?
Just found this channel and I'm loving the stories, can't wait for more 👍
This is gold.Very few old school mobsters left.Sammys the only one with a RUclips channel that I know of.This channel is gonna blow up.
The first part of that story had me rolling on the floor. The second part, the loss of your friend got me choked up too
Make the next few stories Recipes!! It's gonna be Christmas soon! Don't make yourself upset during the holidays! With Respect, Chris from NY!
I LOVE YOU SAMMY AND LOVE HOW YOU TELL THESE TRUE LIFE EXPERIENCES EVEN THOUGH I KNOW ITS GOT TO BE HARD!! GOD BLESS💕💕🇺🇸
You must have accidentally bumped your caps lock.
Yea Sammy. You don't tell stories. You tell life experiences. Real and Raw. Legit bro!
I need a Sammy "The Bull" series to watch. Hes such a great storyteller.
Maybe.
"Im a little guy...in height." Dont worry sammy you dont gotta clarify, you can tell from this video your packin some heat hahaha 😂
😅😅🤣🤣🤣💀⚰✌
Hilarious!
Like no homo, the camera angle a little weird bro. 😂
Sir you are a grown man
That’s a sock. 😏
I fucks with Sammy “Show me what you got”.
"I had the coats on my arm, Billy". Sammy really knows whats rights and whats not. Hes doing his duty til the man broke the rule himself.
Great video again. Never gets old. Makes me want more, every time.
I can't resist clicking and listening to his stories.
Imagine The bull and Micheal Franzese on the JRE together 😱 would be Joe's most viewed
Can you talk about any relationship you may have had with any of the guys from the Goodfellas movie, Henry Hill, Jimmy the Gent, Paul Varrio etc. Or maybe any relation with Donnie Brasco, Lefty Ruggerio Sonny Black etc. Love listening to your stories on your channel.
Tommy got shot by Gotti directly.
Different families - Lucchese and Bonnano
Would love to hear about lefty - i hear like Johnny - this guy was Costa Nostra thru and thru
Thanks for another story Sammy, if at all possible a daily story and a weekly longer video would make us soooo entertained
Heard that!! Maybe a weekly or monthly interview too...I wonder if Mikey Scars DiLeonardo would be on board? He is a great storyteller and would have a lot of stories...Scars entire family was in the mob for generations...wealth of information
I dont even care if these stories are all true, I love the way you tell them. I cant get over how much I enjoy hearing you tell these stories. Please keep em coming Sammy.
I love listening to these stories. You can tell they are real & emotional sometimes which makes them all the more special to listen to.
Another great story Sammy. Thank you! :) from Scotland! 🇬🇧
From Birmingham 💯
Sammy please do a story on the “mafia cops” that allegedly tried to kill you
@Dante's Inferno Yea I’ve watched & read a lot of things on that task force
That’s wild but I’m glad your ok
Anthony Gas pipe Casso told that story about the mafia cops.. Oh Gas pipe died this passed Wednesday 12/16/2020.. He died in prison.. He had 13 life sentences plus 455 yrs..
@@marcsteven6170 casso*
@@stayhungry1503 Gaspipe.. What about him.. Did I know him, put it this way.. What do you think my friend ?
@@stayhungry1503 I accidentally hit the I instead of a C.. Honest mistake on my part since the I and C are right next to each other but good catch.
Good job Mr. Gravano. Relax and enjoy the holidays and eat well.
Loving every minute of these episodes Mr. Gravano! Truly epic! Showing another, darker side, of American History. Much respect for you doing this.

Mr. Gravano, you are doing something really wonderful here. You are documenting something very important. Yes, it is all fascinating and entertaining. But even more, this is incredibly valuable historical documentation. I had no idea your channel existed until I logged into RUclips on this old account and saw your Tijuana video among my recommendations. This may be the best recommendation I've ever had from them. Really, I'm somewhat surprised you don't have an historian and/or sociologist from a university working with you on this. I hope that you are making backups of your content to ensure that this material is preserved no matter what happens to RUclips.
I still feel slightly sick from your account of that super max prison, by the way. I am no one important but if I can ever be of service in an effort to put and end to such hell on Earth please don't hesitate to let me know. I will do what I can, for free of course, as pro bono work.
Thank you for your wonderful cultural and historical contributions, sir.
Sammy, love your videos. Keep them comin. 💜👌🏽
Let’s get him on Joe Rogan 🤘🏻
Screw Joe Rogan
Ho Rogan?
😂😂😂
This is a “Real Story......” awesome. And Thanks for Not preaching bro..
Thank you for reliving these tales and sharing them with us...these stories are amazing
Nothing but love for Sammy!
I know u r prob worried about getting sued but would like to hear abt ur old dealings with Trump
Definitely!!!!!
He already said that trump had to deal with the mob if he wanted to build anything i New York because they ran all the unions. He said every developer had to, no matter what. He also said trump was helping Giuliani to bring them down , i guess he didn’t like the fact he had to pay extra money to a bunch of gangsters to get his buildings built 😂 Michal Franzese also said this.
Trump wouldn't sue any of the Mafia guys, he doesn't see them as the enemy. Communist bankers and their little bolshevik marxist pawns are attacking him from every angle; that's his focus.
"Mentality of a table top" funny
I’m a simple man I see Sammy post I click and hit like.
I can listen to this man all day , can’t wait for more episodes of the podcast
His face at 14:29 is just perfect. 😂😂
He's soo disappointed.
