Sorry for your loss, I have never commented on any other channel like yours for my own reasons but your honesty touched me, growing up in bensonhurst im 56 and it is a terrible life for everyone,God bless❣️
I’ve never seen you talk like this before. Fascinating upload. So sorry for your terrible loss. May your daughter rest in peace. Love & Respect from the UK
Agreed… he seems a bit more circumspect regarding individuals from those days …the family loss seems to have levelled him off somewhat- sad it had be the driver and sad for his loss
I think you are right. They have both turned the page on that life, and the respect each of them has shown recently for the other, tells me the hatred they had was really for what that life did to them, not to each other.
My condolences....no parent should ever bid a child farewell 😢....Fent almost took me 3yr ago....im nothing but lucky I survived got clean n found the Lord.....I will keep you & your family lifted in prayer 😢❤
Yeah my grandma lost her son (my dad) on her birthday, he overdosed in Atlantic City. The pain for everyone involved will never go away. Life is never the same and the pain doesn’t go away, you just learn to handle it.
Hey Joey, lost my little brother 3 years ago, you’re absolutely right… the pain never goes away, I’m 59 and he was taken away by a car. When I visit my mom you can almost touch her pain. My deepest condolences to you and your family and may your pain disappear. Be strong for your mom’s sake
This is the most honest video I have ever seen posted in the genre. Good on you, John Alite. You just got another fan. Maybe not for who you were, but of who you are becoming. Merry Christmas, Sir. Peace and healing to your family. I hope you find your friend, again, someday. From everything I’ve learned about that life, it seems to me that the minute you sign on to be a part of it, a clock starts ticking down. In the beginning, all the choices are good ones, easy ones,…. but by the time that clock runs down, none of them are good. When a man is left standing at the edge of the abyss, and nothing but terrible choices, who is anyone else to judge which road they take? If all of these guys have one thing in common, it’s that they all stood there at one time, and they all stepped off the edge.
You have matured on every level - your thoughts on losing a kid ring very true. I have seen my dad suffer with the loss of my brother for 20 years. Unlike him, your honesty with yourself and willingness to actually talk about it's effects on you will help you heal. Keep evolving and stay well John!
I'm 56 years old. Grew up in Ozone Park, went to John Adams HS. Wasn't involved but always heard of you guys. We all wish we could go back to the good days and change things. My condolences for your loss. I know what you are going through, we lost a daughter a year ago. Jan 6th. Wish you and Jr would get together.
Dear John! Greetings from a privileged softie from Sweden.🇸🇪 I am very touched by your story. You are absolutely right! No one who has lived in that world, 24 hours Day in and day out, have the right to judge you! May the Lord's blessing rest upon you and bring healing and peace to you and your family! I wish you all the best! 🙏❤️
Well spoken, sir. The humbleness and sincerity of your words are of man who made peace with himself and his past. Much respect to you now, Mr. Alite. Onwards and upwards. My condolences to you and your family for the loss of your daughter. May she Rest in Peace.
There is a reason humans betray. Especially In a violent world, Nobody is friends with each other; this is a brutal reality that is called a zero-sum game. John Alite corrected himself by saying: " being who you want to be, not who you became after you went the wrong way." God Bless his daughter's soul.
@@BuzzznFrogmost of his stories have been disproven. I truly believe he has a real issue with lying. I almost feel bad for him because he’s not able to control it
Ive watched a lot of your videos over the years and read your book. honestly this was the first time i FELT genuine humility in your voice and spirit. thats real healing and growth. Im very sorry to hear about your daughter. I have twin 6 year old sons and wish you were closer bc I would hire you to train them in boxing. God bless you.
Hi John, nice to see you are chill now and you are being happy going forward and you are not holding grudges towards anyone. That is really great. You seem at peace. Happy Holidays.
Nice show Mr JA. I see a man infront of me who changed his life for the better. Keep up the good work and stay humble. I grew up in similar circumstances in South London in the 80s and when I think back, I should never have trusted as many ppl as I did then. What a strange and dangerous life it was. I happy to be alive today when some of my acquaintances back then are not.
Mr Alite you look drained and been touched with darkness,however you are still pushing positivity,keep the road your on and you’ll be right as rain . God bless mate ✝️🏴
I've met John and happy to say I consider him a brother. Don't know him too long, but he's helped me pushing my music by collabing on posts on IG..He is a humbled man and doing God's will by teaching this isn't the life to want to live. I'm happy he turned his life around and the more he continues to walk in faith , God will continue to reveal himself to him 🙏
So sorry for your loss! My mom lost her 1st 2 born! Never the same! Time helps but always will have those scars! Stay strong! God Bless you & your family!🙏
looking good Kid !! Sorry for your loss John .lost my daughter in 2019 .so Hard.She left us our Grandson he keeps us going.God Bless you and your family.
Suffolk County here, drugs were responsible for losing my little brother last year, too. Have been following your content, Gene's a buddy. This was a good one, Thanks John.
ML&R to you, John, for the way you handled this current situation with John Jr. I've been watching your vlog for years, going back and forth with the guys in the life. It's like a pissing contest in a hurricane against the wind. You can't win, but you can't stop at the same time, and so it never ends. The toughest is the humblest when your over 60 and not locked up or 6ft under. Being from Detroit area and Dad having knocked around with the heavyweights growing up. I understand slightly your path, me not choosing to go that way. I never commented, even tho your daughter has been gone for a couple, my condolences have always been there. I was waiting for a rebuttal vlog from you after Jr's latest vlogs. I am surprised and have much respect for the class act you displayed. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and God bless you and all your loved ones, here and in the next journey...
saturday night , at home , after helping my mother and my father with some construction things and it is nice to listen this reflection , sorry for your loss , all the best 🇵🇹
Hey John I’m sorry for your loss and I do personally know how that feels! I lost my Daughter as well! Some days are better than others, I try to be a better person all the way around I’m sure my daughter and my other loved ones would want/ like it better that way! Hang tight &God bless!!
Fortunately never met you when you back in the day but giannini kids always talked about you and knew it wouldn't be pleasant to beef with you - to say the least. Then when I saw you on RUclips commented many times that you were the real McCoy despite wannabes spitting otherwise. Also commented many times "if he can HELP even half the number he HURT then he will be amazing good." I didn't think that was possible but you're really doing it. You're doing great - one of the most positive turnaround stories that I have ever seen. I do know where you "came from" and seeing you now and hearing your messages is so STRONG. Dont stop Mr. Alite - you are really outclassing everyone - and I mean everyone in the "genre" - what a joke to even use that word for the treachery and misery of that life. Anyway stay strong - you probably have no idea - or maybe you do, you're very smart guy- and know how many people are watching and you're helping them (and me) by showing that it is possible to recover from such a dark treacherous place and transform into really helping people to stay as far from that world as possible. Even from the days of hawking baseball bats - where i didn't think was going in the right direction - looks like you've even changed dramatically from that and heading in a really positive direction. It so impressive and so strong to even watch - you really are like the last one standing and strongest. The rest of the mutts are living on their fathers or stepfather or someone elses juice. You lived it and did it yourself -nobody else juice -and navigated through enough to survive it - then they did dime you out first - and no doubt any of those points - and I know that and always knew that from facts I witnessed. Anyway you know what im trying to say - if you even read any of these. Anyway stay strong and keep going the direction you are because you're the best example of how to literally come from the most treacherous point in that world, right through the proverbial belly of the beast, land on your feet or at least one foot, dust yourself off and go just as strong and hard in the opposite direction and do well and do amazing amount of good. OK. Peace theyll probably call me a alite fan now or whatever lunacy the wannabes spit but this time they might be correct. Very strong Mr Alite. Bravissimo. Peace
Be great if you and John jr could sit down and bury the hatchet! Put the past behind each other, life is short! Your lives have changed and your adults now! All the best!!! 🙏🏻💯💯💯
I’ve always loved Johns honesty from the start ‘ something he’s consistent with in all his videos love the way he can move your heart with his emotions and then make you smile with his little funny stories ‘ thank you John happy holidays ❤️🙏
I have never commented before. I thought your sincerity really shown through God bless you John you are a changed man. I also lost a daughter 3 years ago. I can tell by the calmness in your voice, and the way you present yourself the pain is real. God bless, if you don't know Christ as your savior, please call on him Merry Christmas God bless
John..I send my condolences to you and your family on the loss of your daughter! You're right..most don't know our pain of losing a child like us...I pray they never do
Salute John; This was incredible to witness. God Bless and No Stress to your and yours always sir. Talk about a breath of fresh air with God on our side until infinity. Amazing.
At first view I thought Mr Alite was in a red straight jacket! I didn’t see the black sleeves! What up John Great shows when YOURE ON- merry Christmas and happy new year
I'll be honest absolutely nothing but respect for this video. You stepped up like a man. You definitely don't remember me but I met you when I was young. In Brooklyn with my father. And through the years I've watched what happened and how it unfolded. It's great to see you with your head held high. Keep it that way brother much respect
I'm nobody to say this. I'm proud of you brother . I learned something today from your show. Merry Christmas to you and your family and I'm sorry for your loss. God bless you all
Nobody can even remotely understand the pain that is involved with losing a child or sibling tragically. People this is another level of pain. The pain is excruciating for years and this is pain that stays with you for your entire life and changes you and many people will never recover. John Alite lost a beautiful daughter tragically and John Gotti Junior lost a beautiful brother tragically. Good to see both of them standing with each other in these videos.
📩 Write your comments below-your thoughts matter and doesn’t matter
Hey Johnny aletto my man. Im glad you are speaking truth to the gatti family lies. You are welcome in Springfield aletto at any time brother
Iv got even more respect for you after watching this video ,best wishes going forward mate from sacha in London uk 🇬🇧
God bless you john 🙏salute
@@johnalite that animal blondetto I can't even say his name ..... John jr.... I mean lil carmine.... That assholes giving away washing machines!!
I enjoy hearing your stories John. Keep doing your thing i support you 🤙 Aloha from Hawaii
After the respect that John Jr showed him and his wife about his daughter’s passing, their beef is over and I’m glad of it
Sorry for your loss, I have never commented on any other channel like yours for my own reasons but your honesty touched me, growing up in bensonhurst im 56 and it is a terrible life for everyone,God bless❣️
Respect ✊
I’ve never seen you talk like this before. Fascinating upload. So sorry for your terrible loss. May your daughter rest in peace. Love & Respect from the UK
Other than the tragic loss of Mr. Alite's daughter, this is my favorite clip of him speaking. Hands down.
Agreed… he seems a bit more circumspect regarding individuals from those days …the family loss seems to have levelled him off somewhat- sad it had be the driver and sad for his loss
I lost my little Brother June 2023 he was 42 still think about him all the time..this time A Yr is Tuff..God Bless John
sorry for the loss of your daughter things get put into perspective after a loss i can’t imagine your hurt hope god heals you !!!!
Great job taking the high road. As well as gotti jr. Maybe you should be mad at the life and not each other?
I think you are right. They have both turned the page on that life, and the respect each of them has shown recently for the other, tells me the hatred they had was really for what that life did to them, not to each other.
@HamiltonRb bingo
Yep i agree
It’s called “ don’t hate the player hate the game”.
Yeah it makes for a great show… boring as shit
My condolences....no parent should ever bid a child farewell 😢....Fent almost took me 3yr ago....im nothing but lucky I survived got clean n found the Lord.....I will keep you & your family lifted in prayer 😢❤
Most honest I’ve ever seen Alite , good to hear him talk about the good times with John , it brings peace to the soul.
My mother buried 2 of her sons, one at 22, and one at 43. I know first hand the pain she felt, and me also. The pain is FOREVER..
Yeah my grandma lost her son (my dad) on her birthday, he overdosed in Atlantic City. The pain for everyone involved will never go away. Life is never the same and the pain doesn’t go away, you just learn to handle it.
Hey Joey, lost my little brother 3 years ago, you’re absolutely right… the pain never goes away, I’m 59 and he was taken away by a car. When I visit my mom you can almost touch her pain. My deepest condolences to you and your family and may your pain disappear. Be strong for your mom’s sake

I just lost a brother this past weekend and I can imagine the hurt, My condolences to you and your family God bless you and always stay strong 🙏
I’m so sorry to hear this 🙏🙏

How was your experience there my uncle went there In 86 and it turned into a shit show after you know what happened ?
Best post yet. Good for you.
It's amazing how much God softens your heart when you turn to him. You can tell he's a changed man 🙏
My condolences Mr Alite. Wish you all the best in life. Much respect from. 🏴
Dear John!
Greetings from a privileged softie from Sweden.🇸🇪
I am very touched by your story.
You are absolutely right!
No one who has lived in that world, 24 hours
Day in and day out, have the right to judge you!
May the Lord's blessing rest upon you and bring healing and peace to you and your family!
I wish you all the best!
🙏❤️
Class act you are John! ❤ 🙏🏻
Sorry for the loss of your daughter 🙏🏻

I have been waiting for this

John Alite corrected himself by saying: " being who you want to be, not who you became after you went the wrong way." God Bless his daughter's soul.
Anyone who survived 2 years in a Brazilian Prison, is the real deal!
Facts
His stories about it have been disproven
@@BuzzznFrogmost of his stories have been disproven. I truly believe he has a real issue with lying. I almost feel bad for him because he’s not able to control it
@ he’s mentally ill
Definitely not the real deal he was around but half the shit he says it’s lies
Well said John ! Merry Christmas 🎄
Good video John. It’s sad you guys don’t speak. you were so close. You can’t replace those moments of laughter.
Literally lost my little bro last Thursday , your right the pain hits you at any moment in waves literally heart ache sorry for your loss ❤
It’s fing horrible. Do not let it consume you though. It’s a lot easier than you’d think and it happens quick.
this really feels like a sincere gut honest redeeming version of John Alite. God be with you
Ive watched a lot of your videos over the years and read your book. honestly this was the first time i FELT genuine humility in your voice and spirit. thats real healing and growth. Im very sorry to hear about your daughter. I have twin 6 year old sons and wish you were closer bc I would hire you to train them in boxing. God bless you.

Great story John 👏
Keep up the good work 👍
John
Sorry to hear about your daughters passing, deepest condolences.
From George & Hadgecostas Family (Australia).
I've met John and happy to say I consider him a brother. Don't know him too long, but he's helped me pushing my music by collabing on posts on IG..He is a humbled man and doing God's will by teaching this isn't the life to want to live. I'm happy he turned his life around and the more he continues to walk in faith , God will continue to reveal himself to him 🙏
you don't know him but consider him a brother ? that's weird and very clout chasing. he's not your brother and he doesn't consider you as a brother
@MISGUIDIDMEDIA Do you know how to read? Don't know him too well. Met him, stay in contact and know his heart is good. What don't you understand?
By the way, I'm a man of God we don't care about "clout" lol. I care about how the Lord sees me not any man.
So sorry for your loss! My mom lost her 1st 2 born! Never the same! Time helps but always will have those scars! Stay strong! God Bless you & your family!🙏
From man to man and father to father. I want to send my condolences to you, and your family. God bless!
Beautiful video..
Best one yet...

I have never commented before. I thought your sincerity really shown through God bless you John you are a changed man. I also lost a daughter 3 years ago. I can tell by the calmness in your voice, and the way you present yourself the pain is real. God bless, if you don't know Christ as your savior, please call on him Merry Christmas God bless
I’ve been saying it for years all these guys need to bury the hatchet with one another and get together for one big PBD special.
When this video started I thought your arms were missing..lol
Me too😂
My Condolences go out to you & your family..
John..I send my condolences to you and your family on the loss of your daughter! You're right..most don't know our pain of losing a child like us...I pray they never do
Salute John; This was incredible to witness. God Bless and No Stress to your and yours always sir. Talk about a breath of fresh air with God on our side until infinity. Amazing.
At first view I thought Mr Alite was in a red straight jacket! I didn’t see the black sleeves!
What up John
Great shows when YOURE ON- merry Christmas and happy new year
I'm very sorry for your loss, John.
Good man
Well done
Merry Christmas
I'll be honest absolutely nothing but respect for this video. You stepped up like a man. You definitely don't remember me but I met you when I was young. In Brooklyn with my father. And through the years I've watched what happened and how it unfolded. It's great to see you with your head held high. Keep it that way brother much respect
My condolences. Wish you the best..
Spoken like a true gentleman, it takes a man's man to speak what sounds like real knowledge! God Bless
merry chrismas and a happy new year to you john and family and to all that read it
Happy holidays
I'm nobody to say this. I'm proud of you brother . I learned something today from your show. Merry Christmas to you and your family and I'm sorry for your loss. God bless you all
This is probably the most level headed response ex mobster. What a great response
I think u are a stand up dude . God bless you and your family from England 🏴 god bless America 🇺🇸
Well said John, i like this new leaf!
Nobody can even remotely understand the pain that is involved with losing a child or sibling tragically. People this is another level of pain. The pain is excruciating for years and this is pain that stays with you for your entire life and changes you and many people will never recover. John Alite lost a beautiful daughter tragically and John Gotti Junior lost a beautiful brother tragically. Good to see both of them standing with each other in these videos.
Very mature rebuttle from both yourself and jr....😊
Amazing. Well done .
Your life experiences made you who you are today
This was a great talk. Thanks. Merry Christmas, God be with you.
Fair play to you John, this just proves that life is no good. Happy Christmas to you and yours.
God Bless you and your family John!
Sorry for your loss John. I envy your strength to keep moving forward. God bless you and your family 🙏🏼
Isaiah 43:18 Remember not the events of the past, the things of long ago consider not;
