“I’m telling ya, everybody used only periods and commas when I was a kid. We didn’t know how to write out a question. So I thought, what about a mark to signify a question? Call it a question mark!!” - Your uncle 😂
I wonder if he based his 'fictional-real life' character off of Flair's wrestling persona? The thing about Russo is that he wasn't like this in the past. Watch old interviews with him. He just regular interviews. It is really funny to compare his stories from interviews in the past to his current ones. He will give totally different stories and explanations for the same event. Like, TOTALLY different. Even how he got the part in the Godfather. In the past, he said that he did a straight-up audition. Now he has this elaborate story with mob guys and threats..pure BS. haha. I wonder if he is bat$hit crazy or if he just takes on this personality to sell books?
The two best things that ever happened to Gianni Russo was, first, when he got beat up for real by James Caan, and second, when Richard S. Castellano garrotted him with a wire in the first Godfather film. Gianni is legend in his own mind.
How can yall hate this guy? 😭 hes always laughing and smiling his energy is a vibe. Hes like that cool grandpa with dementia that used to he with the shits lol.
There's this crazy old guy in my area who thinks he's Elvis. Gianni reminds me of him so much, the only difference is Gianni is rich and the guy in my area is broke. I think they both have the same illness, where they aren't happy in their own skin so they put on a fake persona and exaggerate everything
He does that to guys interviewing him too, you can see him do that to the male interviewer on the podcastnout video. The way he holds the other persons wrist is more like a grandfatherly paternalistic gesture.
This guy has a new story every interview lol so now we're supposed to believe he's been shot 6 times and survived? That's up there with him going to Colombia and reenacting his death scene from the Godfather with Pablo Escobar lmao ... This guy the Italian Forrest Gump
this guy survived polio and was quarantined for six years at the age of 6.a bullet does not mean instant death.you can’t lie about scars on the body.tes he was shot six times but guys like him probably don’t go to a hospital they have there own doctors.
I was in life of crime under 10year and every week happened something can u imagine 60 years on those street, i dont say gianni speak always truth but if get some real old mafia legend speak to you about his stories those strories dont end ever.. but those old timers dont speak unless u his family and he trust you 110%
And robert DeNiro himself said russo walk the walk and talk the talk and many ppl respect him and i can tell you lying piece of shit wouöd not survive second with rhe guys gianni hanged
That is a good way to put it. I just pushed play and excited to hear what stories he tells in this interview. It was hilarious when he essentially opened the interview by nonchalantly telling the host that he recently got shot and was saved by robotic surgery...and then carries right on. Okay..time to finish the video. I wonder if he will tell the story about Marilyn Monroe?
Petey he’s an embarrassment, apparently he spent a weekend shagging Marilyn Monroe when he was 16, threatened mob boss Frank Costello, was good friends with the man who really killed JFK and so much more 😴😴
He’s a world class bullshitter, the bullshit gets bigger as he ages. He has an interesting life and is a great story teller I wonder why he thinks he needs to lie so much.
You guys make fun of this guy.But you don’t know he’s the one that was a secret song writer for the Beatles.what you got to say know.great lyrics right
If you're smart you'll get.gianni russo most of what mr rusdo says is true but he throws in some bull for affects and laughs have these people ever been in a movie even as an extra he's been in a bunch of films love this man still having laughs in his 70s cool asf
Why do people cater to this. This is what happens when you dont tell these people there full of sh and theyre stories just keep getting bigger and crazier.

"I catered the Last Supper"- Gianni Russo
“Jesus liked Buffalo wings. Can ya believe it?!”
Listening to this guy is like listening to my uncle who suffers from dementia tell us at Christmas how he invented the question mark.
You don't believe him
Christopher Ayettey he’s a well know bullshitter
Your uncle is Dr.Evil's father?
That’s funny

The factory that produces this kind of guys , it’s been closed years ago.
He is one of a kind ...❤️
You can’t be serious???? He is a known liar about the craziest things. He’s been apart of the craziest moments in US history. He’s a liar
He might be the biggest 1uper of all time.
One interview he was born and raised in Staten Island another he was born and raised in little Italy this man is nuts
He was born in Manhattan and raised in both staten island and little Italy
@Raymond,. If there was one thing you think he could keep straight, that's it! Way too many lies to keep straight.
And where were you born?
Ric Flair in the flesh. He's more ric flair than ric flair

WOOOOOO
When Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone he had 3 missed calls from Gianni
"benjamin franklin borrowed my house key for that experiment"
-Gianni Russo
''that spot in that mental place where my mother lives was actually made for me'' Gianni Russo
lmao
"It Reads Like , Goodfellas Meets Forrest Gump". I Laughed When He Said That !
The man is so charismatic and likeable!
He is also completely full of shit
This man is my great great uncle.. I come from the Russo and Mannino familia
3:03 *Gianni Russo: "Everybody thinks I was made."*
Nobody thought that but you Gianni.
The two best things that ever happened to Gianni Russo was, first, when he got beat up for real by James Caan, and second, when Richard S. Castellano garrotted him with a wire in the first Godfather film. Gianni is legend in his own mind.
He’s been saying there is a movie starring with Mark Wahlberg about his life coming out for the last fifteen years.
"Carlo, You're going to have to answer for that broken windshield!"
You guys just don’t comprehend great storytelling
The truth must never get in its way .
I just got through watching The Godfather 123 in one sitting 🪑 again for about 15 times now ,I can’t get enough
This girl worked for WPIX (Channel 11 News in New York). She was the weather person.
She can get it
"Goodfellas meets Forrest Gump" 🤣
TK RUSSO
How can yall hate this guy? 😭 hes always laughing and smiling his energy is a vibe. Hes like that cool grandpa with dementia that used to he with the shits lol.
He's fun to listen to but he reminds me of the crazy uncle who has a bunch of stories everyone laughs at but knows are complete BS lol
He is so full of shit his eyes change colors
@Bo Bo Knows Yea but thats not ya business !
They need a movie on this guy asap!!!
He had a good script and wanted Mark Wahlberg to play the lead but it was nixed by Terence Winter. His character does appear in “The Offer”.
He was the original assassin to Abraham Lincoln and set up John Wilkes Booth
An absolute master storyteller and fascinating individual. I think the people that put him down are jelly.
Or they just don’t tolerate compulsive liars.
What a character. Will have to bring back that word; charisma.
I feel like she's laughing at him and not with him at 9:04 🤣🤣🤣
🤣
This guy got cast in the Godfather in a minor role. That's a fact. Everything else he's claimed is bullshit.
I know a cast member. That person told me that production wanted to hire unknowns . I was told this nearly twenty years ago.
He also got shot six times? He didn't mention that during Vlad interview lol
Scott Mimi same here! Idk what he’s talking about!
Because he makes shit up
Yeah hell yeah im tryin to figure out if he was talkin shit in vlad or if hes tellin truth i want to believe him
How many of his stories are true 5 percent

But killing Escobars underboss is true. I didnt belivie that until Frank Cullota said that. So maybe this Gianni isn't liying as we all think.

I really like this guy, very interesting person.
she is LOVING this interciew!!,
She's gorgeous
"Carlo, You're going to have to answer for that broken windshield!"
I bought a used Cadillac from him in 93.
No way 🤭, just bought his book, luv it, Wish I could get it signed
Shut up gary
“I told God to rest at the seven day. Isn’t that something?”
🤣
Can you believe it?! Huhuhaha 😁
wel all love you Mr.Russo
Got the book goodshit respect
If even half of Gianni's stories are true... or a third... or a quarter... or... they would still be amazing. Entertaining schmoozer master.
It's actually true..... His ties to the mob have gotten him in so many doors....
@@augustaugust7667 He killed a 30yr old Cuban at a Las Vegas club back in 1988. True story
“I was the one who told Lincoln to see that play!” Can you believe it???!”
💥 I Love This Guy... He’s For Real 💥
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Six gut shots. Lived
He killed a 30yr old Cuban at a Las Vegas club back in 1988.
9:08 when you shoot ur shot and it works
" always kept my mouth shut" ...ha-ha-ha
Google this man being shot?? Not one news article about it??? 😆
Half that book is made up stories. Carlos Escobar? really? lol...
This guy actually killed a 30yr old Cuban at a Las Vegas club.
@@hiseverest9074 yes, that's the only thing he has done.
“Hey Carlo” wasn’t even close to one of the most iconic lines in The Godfather! Far from it
Legend has it he sat next to God and helped create the universe.
This guy is soooo cool
Mr. Russo, what advice would you give people that need to know how to move on and evolve?
He will answer you soon.
“I don’t even know who that character is anymore.”
Gianni, youre a good story teller...but come on man~~reel it in....
She is actually flirtatious with him....
she wants what marlyin had
@@elipav484 So she wants nothing from him. Fair enough.
I didn't paint the Mona Lisa but I did pose for it... Gianni Russo
He’s a con and a legend in his own mind
And you are an ignorant person who likes to speak about things that they truly know nothing nothing about
he's also 80. He's allowed to have big fish stories. :)
This dudes playing a dude disguised as another dude
Outstanding 😆

Fake taxi vibe 😂
Al Pacino should play him in a movie.
Pacino is way old.
That is easy! There are plenty of white suburban male douchbags in America who can easily perform the role of young Gianni Russo in his life story.
@@maitreyas.4902 so is Russo.
I love how Mr. Russo keeps his Faith in God and tells his story without dropping the F bomb every other word..
Big liar
I wrote in 95, but kept elaborating on it.
Basically he thought up more bullshit stories he could come out with 🤦🏻♂️😴😴
All his stories are lies he's a clown.
Petey he’s an embarrassment, apparently he spent a weekend shagging Marilyn Monroe when he was 16, threatened mob boss Frank Costello, was good friends with the man who really killed JFK and so much more 😴😴
The real deal! Some stupid ass comments on here!
R.M who’s the real deal? This washes up, never has been ? 🤷🏻♂️🤣🤣
Yeah,he's a real Christian alright.
From your judgement of him, I’m assuming your not much either.
@@SteveHugunin Idiot
Catholic sooo...
Gianni is just a whole loada fiction!
Gianni
Carlos Hernandez Fiction Carlito.....fiction there’s a difference 😆
Realer than you will ever, ever be, kiddo.

@@Thechief1977 Nah, Nature's realities don't require "belief".
The lady interviewer is so very pretty. Just look at her smooth skin and shiny dark eyes, wow!

Good Lord that thumbnail is horrifying !
In a word, “creepy” sums it all up.
That Moor complexion is coming out more and more with age.
Am I lying ?
You're a cantaloupe!
@@hacked1504 The original Moors that invaded Sicily centuries ago were not white.
@@gnumani Did I say they were Sub Saharan?
@@gnumani lol "Olive skin".
He’s a world class bullshitter, the bullshit gets bigger as he ages. He has an interesting life and is a great story teller I wonder why he thinks he needs to lie so much.
Amen
Did Gianni get a new porcelain grill?
Watching their teeth is like watching cartoons 😂😁😆
You guys make fun of this guy.But you don’t know he’s the one that was a secret song writer for the Beatles.what you got to say know.great lyrics right
Gianni Russo apparently was the one who dies on a cross and rose 3 days later
Love that jacket
If he is like this at this age- can you imagine what he was like at 26
a liar then too.
@@tml184 🤣
Whooooooo!
Making a honest living of one time
Haven't watched this video, does she ever at any point say "Gianni, you talk some shite." ?
J.C
Is good all the time
When Hillary becomes President, I am leaving the country. Go Gianni.
Wether Gianni is a fake or not ma man is a straight playa he got her in his pocket Gianni is that Boyeee
I like this man because he is interesting but I heard he got the Godfather part thru force by one of his "freinds"
Shes doin that like damn him and bill were getting it in with the broads like shes been there with bill at his parties before haha its at 8:05
“Ree-zeeh”? Rizzi should be pronounced “Rit-zeeh”.

A lot of stories this guy has 🤔 pull up your boots cuz
Gianni & Bubba for 5 days--- Was it on the Lolita Express and Orgy Island? Who would believe that or anything each one of them said?
He said he always knew to keep his mouth shut.This guy couldn’t keep his mouth shut for 30 seconds
I was shot 6 times...........not!
Who Gianni Russo??? He GodFather In Mafia?
He was the actor who played the role of Marlon Brando's belly.
These two had relations together.
His life would make a great movie....he's a B.S...hitter but a likeable one amongst billions......
he is Forest Gump
He had a secret affair with Errol Flynn , Errol stuffed him every day lol
How did his eye turn blue?! Look at old pictures, he has dark brown eyes. 🤔 🧐 🤨
Contact lenses ( blue) ??
Full of shit his eyes were brown
Why do people cater to this. This is what happens when you dont tell these people there full of sh and theyre stories just keep getting bigger and crazier.
Dudes a liar
I hate secrets.
I can only believe half of what he says...I can see he gets off on his own shtick
Biggest nobody!!!
The voice as well as the mannerisms of the Interviewer were painful to watch and hear. Had to click off.
Lies...lies and more lies
