no different in America or Britain, look up the knnedy assisanation, they always work very closely with conventional criminals because it gives them pausible deniability, they use them and then come in and arrest later and are called heroes when they created them all along and then they prop up there next puppet criminal who will later be fucked aswell
*Italy has the strictest laws against mafia in the world so dumbass shut up. Learn what is the Article 41 bis prison regime, before opening your filtfhy mouth saying bullshits*
I'm from Italy, Sicily.. i understand every problem of my country.. we're the last country in europe.. there're too much corruption.. too much political problems.. People thinks that Italy is the best (for them we have the best food, the best cars, the best clothes, the best everything) in the world.. but in reality is not!! We have to change our thinks for a new Italy!
iMaux not to offend you but open your eyes no1 especially here in the USA anywhere thinks you all have the best of anything except maybe the best at destroying your own Homeland....
Joni XD you should visit there. Florence Tuscany etc. it’s one of the most amazing places with the most amazing culture and people anywhere in the world. Like the OP said though they have tons of problems. One of which being they have WAY too many politicians. Bureaucracy in Italy makes America look like a libertarian paradise
*I don't realise this obsession about hand gestures of italians, cause any people in the world do it...in addition they are describing an object (as the dimension) not hand gesturing*
Gen Speaking Yeah really nice english accent too. But one time heard an italian trying to pronounce asian words, his accent sounds like an indian. Not meant as insult, just strange.
It’s crazy I lived in Naples Italy on a military base and went to middle school there, I remember specifically in 2008 when the mafia forced waste management workers to first go on strike, it’s amazing (not in a good way but generally speaking) how rapidly and just how far the organization has pushed the agenda now.

The mafia is only part of the problem and more of a symptom. Problem is the mentallity. The people around Napoli are among the laziest in the world, always cutting corners, always trying to make a living with the least effort or honest work. I've seen them throwing out their garbage through windows, because they're to lazy to go down and put it into a trash-can. This has been going on for centuries, at least since the times of the moors. But ask them why they are so damn lazy and filthy, they'll start blaming the mafia, the government, the EU, god or anybody else but themselves. Shame really. The country could be a beautiful tree, if the apples wouldn't be rotten to the core.
+fenriz218 First off, you weren't around during the Moor occupation, so that's a rediculous statemnt. Second, the Moors were in Sicily, this is Napoli. I spent a long time in Italy and they are no more lazy than anyone else. I live in NY and plenty of times I see people throw their trash on the street when there is a garbage can just feet away.
Remember Naples and Campania was under Spanish rule for nearly 300 years!! which hasn't helped either!! The Spanish aren't the most intelligent people shall we just say.
I live in NYC. Its VERY clean. Despite the black people throwing shit out there apartments, and the young kids thinking its cool to litter. Otherwise, not really a strong comparison. There are no shit lined streets like in this doc.
lol, where did you read such idiocy? In Italy organ transplants are realized exclusively at public hospitals, our healthcare system obstructs any kind of organ traffic, because transplants are free and organs can't be sold.
Cane Rognoso I heard from a friend who went to Italy and was advised to stay away from Naples for that very reason so it's probably just a rumor but I wouldn't be surprised if there was organ Trafficking (not necessarilly transplants). But I don't don't live there so your probably right.
Valentin Lance It's not necessary to live in Naples to realize that all your friend said is bullshit....Naples has a lot of social problems due to mafia, but it's simply absurd that anyone could really think that in a city of western world, in a EU country that has a national welfare could exist a system of organ traffic...we are speaking of Italy, not about Congo, Haiti, Afghanistan or any other 3rd world country. Turists can be advised to hide money and jeweles when they visit Naples, but it's simply inconceivable that a turist could be worried to visit that city because he could be kidnapped and killed for his organs. You and your friend should be dumb if you really think in Italy there is the risk to be killed for organ trades.
I love Italy, and I personally think Italian's are the nicest people iv'e ever met. It's sad to see this happening, hope things get better from England.
I was born and raised in Sicily. There is a lot of garbage all over Italy, but Napoli was the most notorious. I went to Napoli a few times as a child to get on the Autostrada to go skiing in the Alps, and when we drove through Napoli, we saw, as in the video, all the mountains of garbage and the Camorristi, and the Nigerians that sell for them. Napoli isn't what it used to be.
watching this video a person could think that the whole italy is flood by garbage...pity that in reality it happened exclusively in the area of naples.... next time you should make a video in which you show Detroit entitling it "The Usa a 3rd world country"
the video is right.. garbage in naples is a full italian problem.. the chain of garbage often starts within northern italy industries and their toxic waste dumped in southern italy, with the help of camorra.. so the whole italy is linked in this shame.. also the video is quite outdated, but same garbage problems are now happening in rome and in sicily, check it out
Cane Rognoso For many tourists Naples represent the stereotypes of Italy..pizza, spaghetti, mozzarella, o sole mio, mafia, romance, so every italian abroad is linked to that. Hence the title. And the italian problem is that our fucking toxic garbage now excavated in ould fields has still labeled the name of lombard and venetian industries. There are millions of tons of that shit fullfilling our dumps, so there is no more space for ours. And, again, it's not just our problem, if you sell cocaine in daylight in the center of milan you get caught by police in 5 minutes, but for 30 years trucks from nordern italy without any licence discharged every kind of toxic shit even in daylight, even in inhabited areas, and nobody got caught. It's not just "mafia", but a whole awesome and corrupted system, from the nord to the south. We had no industries but a lot of fields. This is a true fully italian shame.. don't try to discharge it on the south, in the video you can see what kind of serious warm hearted persons are fighting for that.
The city of Naples is reduced in this state because of the Italian state that has always made the interests of the North and of the lobbies leaving southern italy in the mafia's hands.So actually the shame is Italy my dear, not Naples which is only a colony since 1860.
Pontifex Maximus mafia in Italy is well widespread in all the regions, except in the two regions which aren't Italian from an anthroplogical point of view: Sardinia and South Tyrol. The bullshits you have written are only neoborbonic rants, Mafia and Camorra in Naples isn't a recent organization, it have been existing for centuries
This is nothing compared to Mumbai, it's the most polluted garbage city in the world. Mountains upon mountains of trash u can see from the air. The shore line of the ocean doesn't go blue till about 3miles out cause if all the garbage in the water an sewage going out. It's truly horrible place.
See, this VIce reporter did it the RIGHT way. He didn't go on and on about "what he was thinking" through the whole video, he simply let the story speak for itself. More Vice documentaries need to take this guy's cue; not just him, but all the European Vice reporters. I'm really sick of all the editoralizing the American reporters do.
As an American, I'd say we're all about the same. Unless you think congress isn't influenced by lobbyist. The US congress goes to the highest bidder: Monsanto, Big Pharma, Tobacco. It's not like gov't and the mafia are too different from each other as entities. One's only illegal because it's in competition of the other.
I have been all over Italy. The trash is a problem in Calabria and around Milan as well. There are plenty of wonderful areas but there is no excuse for the state that many cities are in considering its wealth. The disregard and desecration of historic landmarks in Rome, for instance, is shocking.
normally if u dig further, those gang criminal investigation officers are receiving monthly stipend from those organizations... so, who gonna care if even the chief of police do not want to act... it's very easy to stamp down on criminal organizations... but, who cares, they got their monthly stipend rite?
where is the prize as best investigator? I live in naples and you got it! but not only officiers, mostly politicians!! and even judges!! and you see the system berlusconi created? mafia is good in small cities because they move lots of votes by purchasing the poorest and most desperate people.. so there is no real interest in deleting all of it.. also because if they arrest all of mafia.. many of them will start to "sing".. and many politicians could go in the fucknig jail
He is right, he is saying that if you make a video about a city with the highest crime levels / poverty levels etc then you can't just assume that the rest of that country is like that
this kind of problems are only in Naples and some areas of the South, the rest of Italy is clean. Anyway, this is a perfect video for let the italian haters say bullshit about us.
Pauls feel free to hate me or my country of course, in the end who fucking am i to change your opinion?:P anyway italians are among the most smartest people in the world, and that's its not my opinion or your, this is a fact.
It's only news about Italy if it's about the mafia. Such a shame. As a proud Italian American, I have to say I'm quite disappointed. Why are we Southern Europeans always seen as lower than Northern Europeans?
i like vice, but they really need to make a playlist containing all their documentarys on serious topics. Its kinda hard to find the serious stuff amidst all those entertainment videos.
Well, this was certainly depressing. I really feel for these people. Italy is one of my favorite places to visit. I can understand this happening in China and Africa but, not in Naples. It's so sad.
these documentaries should make people realize how badly the mafia plague is affecting a wonderful country like italy, but instead people just write stupid crap in the comments, racist insults and boring pizza stereotypes. plus italian people reply with more stupid racist remarks. people should try traveling, make friends with foreigners and get over all of these bloody stereotypes...
Terrorism is a word moulded to suit the politician - they have a meeting and decide who the terrorist will be. We as the people need to stop that and look at the real things like water, safety and garbage disposal in a responsible manner.
+agnieska kasniak No, that is not the reason. Southerners have problems northerners don't have. THERE IS NO EQUALITY, EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT. southerners are DIFFERENT and southern Italy is very different. Is that hard for your little brain to understand? That things are not the same everywhere? Southern Italy is a separate country culturally and in all appearance and substance.
It’s truly a gut punch to see areas once so beautiful being destroyed by corruption & crime. For organized crime to subject the citizens in their “territory” to this level of filth & illness is inexcusable. I hope Napoli can one day be restored to its past, natural beauty. Such a shame😢
My grandfather was a poor man all his life and died such. He was and would continue to be embarrassed of how his own land is treated. Like-trash!!!!!! Disappointed. Corruption everywhere!
If the US would put in place sanctions saying, hey, we are not going to import any food products from Italy any longer, it's all tainted, I BET they would clean up their act!!! As for ME? I PERSONALLY will no longer purchase ANY food items from Italy. I urge everyone else to join me in this ban. Let's speak with OUR dollars!
Ben Ghazi Did you watch this video? I mean their food supplies are being compromised and their livestock are being killed because they don't think they are healthy enough to be able to be eaten they are so toxic. It is more than esthetics, although that does play a part, it just seems like things are going very very badly and are being handled very poorly. Unfortunately there IS NO easy answer. Trash is a world wide issue. What do we do with it? Burying it doesn't make it go away. We can't just burn it, or throw it into the sea. We can't just cast it off into space. What DO WE DO??? It is a question that thousands of people are spending their entire lives trying to answer. I'm not saying I have the answer, but there MUST be a better way than this. Another thing that concerns me about THIS particular video is that Italy is a very historic place. Every square inch of that place should be considered a world heritage site and should be protected. More so than say the middle of Kentucky. While, I'm sure Kentucky has it's many beauties, it is not as historically important as Italy.
Yes I did watch it, and every problem you bring up is linked to toxicity of the ground and water. And that wasn't a priority for you when I asked the first time, but it seems to be! The solution is easy, but a tough one. You end capitalism as we know it and implement a sustainable economic system. We can't sustain the present rape of moder earth. Just now we are using resources at a pace of 2,5 earths. So we need to cut our use by 70%. And that will not happen with capitalism. And I guess you are American, as protecting the whole of Italy for historic reasons seems very very very over the top for a European like me. 5% is well enough to cover every ancient structure. But I know you mean well ;)
I know,I'm just used to vice dealing with real up to date problems,I would of made a documentary about when the crisis was at its worst a few years back!,none the less I still love their work ;)
Yeah it is really annoying, I'm half Italian and I'm interested in organised crime so I watch this and see if their is a discussion about the video but no there isn't, it just racist slurs, maybe the government is corrupt but it is still a wonderful country and I'm glad someone like you is actually making positive comments instead of all of these immature people in the comment section acting all grown up by being racist believing it is funny and clever.
I think you need to re-read my comment. I didnt say there isnt any drug trafficking happening in Mexico. Im Mexican and i go there once a year for new years.
this problem is very real and has TRAGIC consequences. my mother is from Campagna and recently passed after battling Multiple Myeloma, a bone marrow cancer. No known etiology is currently understood, but researchers are aware of DIOXIN TOXICITY leading to dysplastic cancers. CONNECT THE DOTS!
Si, penso tu abbia ragione. Io vivo a Reggio Emilia, 200.000 abitanti e problemi diversi.. pero' avendo parenti ad Ischia, passo da Napoli 2/3 volte l'anno. Fino a qualche mese ( passando in taxi dalla stazione centrale al Beverello), la situazione era la stessa di altre grandi aree italiane ( tra cui Milano, Torino... mettici Bologna) ecc
Ah, but you forget that the entire world depends on the USA's economy, (yes even insignificant Malta) our debt could be 100 trillion and we most likely would not collapse. The reason I say our economy is better than the EU is because the EU consists of great countries such as Germany and the UK, and countries such as Ireland, Portugal, Spain, and Greece (that's like having four California's). In the end the USA's GDP is 1000's times Malta's.
Given the current EU standards, Italy likely wouldn't be admitted into the EU (Italy was one of the founding countries). Many countries want to get in, but few are currently being accepted because leaders don't want to make the EU worse than it already is. This is aside the point that Italy currently wants to ditch the EU because of Greece. Overall, Italy has major corruption and scandal issues and probably isn't a shining example of good governance.
I've been visiting Italy for the last few years, and I've got to say most of the country is relatively (emphasis on relatively) clean (for Europe's standards) with the exception of Naples, which is absolutely, sublimely filthy.
wow vice. there are so many sheltered americans such as myself that would have had no idea about any of this had you and other journalistic agencies not reported on this. bravo.
Mafia and government in Italy eating in the same plate.
It's difficult for us understand the differences between illegal crime and legal crime.
no different in America or Britain, look up the knnedy assisanation, they always work very closely with conventional criminals because it gives them pausible deniability, they use them and then come in and arrest later and are called heroes when they created them all along and then they prop up there next puppet criminal who will later be fucked aswell
is not true, we have massive anti-mafia operation by the army
"It's difficult for us understand the differences between illegal crime and legal crime."
Because there are none.

Lived in Naples for three years and personally experienced the problems with the trash, health regulates, and the Camorra.
Listening to somebody speak Italian is music to my ears.
Truly, its amazingly smooth, I don't think I have ever described a language as smooth before, but Italian is.
Along with all the garbage, Naples is also having a problem with illegal organ trafficking. This is disgusting.

Is this Italy !!! Europe !!!! I can not believe !
+mohamad hadad Italy is no Europe. It has no european identity. It's an island
Pauls LOL
mohamad hadad It's true. Italians don't consider themselves european. They are too nationalistic for that
+mohamad hadad and Naples is not Italy.
At least its a city from Italy, you cant eliminate the city and its people !
i like vice, but they really need to make a playlist containing all their documentarys on serious topics. Its kinda hard to find the serious stuff amidst all those entertainment videos.
THIS IS TRUE BUT THIS SITUATION IS/WAS ONLY IN NAPLES NORD ITALY IS CLEAN
I LIVE IN ITALY,TURIN CITY
Sarà ma è sempre Italia Napoli quindi o ci svegliamo oppure ciao ciao... :(
Ma Napoli è sempre Italia... Ci dobbiamo svegliare :(
Ma cosa dici? Io abito a brescia e qui è pieno di rifiuti tossici sotterrati nei campi.
Well, this was certainly depressing. I really feel for these people. Italy is one of my favorite places to visit. I can understand this happening in China and Africa but, not in Naples. It's so sad.
The human virus, once again destroying everything beautiful that god gave us on this earth...
these documentaries should make people realize how badly the mafia plague is affecting a wonderful country like italy, but instead people just write stupid crap in the comments, racist insults and boring pizza stereotypes. plus italian people reply with more stupid racist remarks. people should try traveling, make friends with foreigners and get over all of these bloody stereotypes...
Music is very creepy
Eradicate poverty in Italy, you eradicate the mafia in Italy.
That woman at 13:48 needs to let her husband talk! Goddamn!
The coolest reporter on vice ever is eddie huang
Loved the story but what is this horrible tune ffs Vice it's disgusting.
Terrorism is a word moulded to suit the politician - they have a meeting and decide who the terrorist will be. We as the people need to stop that and look at the real things like water, safety and garbage disposal in a responsible manner.
that freakin annoying song playing throughout the whole piece was freakin annoying
Vice!! my absolute fav channel!!!
my nonna used to say anything south of Rome wasn't Italy anymore
your nonna probably never went to school.
the same thing say the northener about romans.your nonna classic roman arrogant and probably it's because people like her today italy is fucked up
how ridiculous are Italian-Americans mixing italian words with english ones...
+agnieska kasniak No, that is not the reason. Southerners have problems northerners don't have. THERE IS NO EQUALITY, EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT. southerners are DIFFERENT and southern Italy is very different. Is that hard for your little brain to understand? That things are not the same everywhere? Southern Italy is a separate country culturally and in all appearance and substance.
It’s truly a gut punch to see areas once so beautiful being destroyed by corruption & crime. For organized crime to subject the citizens in their “territory” to this level of filth & illness is inexcusable. I hope Napoli can one day be restored to its past, natural beauty. Such a shame😢
How much did it cost Vice to have Luigi host, i hear Nintendo keeps him on a tight leash.
My grandfather was a poor man all his life and died such. He was and would continue to be embarrassed of how his own land is treated. Like-trash!!!!!! Disappointed. Corruption everywhere!
If the US would put in place sanctions saying, hey, we are not going to import any food products from Italy any longer, it's all tainted, I BET they would clean up their act!!! As for ME? I PERSONALLY will no longer purchase ANY food items from Italy. I urge everyone else to join me in this ban. Let's speak with OUR dollars!
If you are worried about toxic food, you should really stop buying US made too. As the US also excels at poisoning their own ground.
Ben Ghazi I'm not worried about eating toxic food... I'm worried about Italy being covered in trash bales.
May I ask why then? Because it looks and smells bad?... The toxicity of the ground and water should be a little more important
Ben Ghazi Did you watch this video? I mean their food supplies are being compromised and their livestock are being killed because they don't think they are healthy enough to be able to be eaten they are so toxic. It is more than esthetics, although that does play a part, it just seems like things are going very very badly and are being handled very poorly. Unfortunately there IS NO easy answer. Trash is a world wide issue. What do we do with it? Burying it doesn't make it go away. We can't just burn it, or throw it into the sea. We can't just cast it off into space. What DO WE DO??? It is a question that thousands of people are spending their entire lives trying to answer. I'm not saying I have the answer, but there MUST be a better way than this. Another thing that concerns me about THIS particular video is that Italy is a very historic place. Every square inch of that place should be considered a world heritage site and should be protected. More so than say the middle of Kentucky. While, I'm sure Kentucky has it's many beauties, it is not as historically important as Italy.
Yes I did watch it, and every problem you bring up is linked to toxicity of the ground and water. And that wasn't a priority for you when I asked the first time, but it seems to be!
The solution is easy, but a tough one. You end capitalism as we know it and implement a sustainable economic system.
We can't sustain the present rape of moder earth. Just now we are using resources at a pace of 2,5 earths. So we need to cut our use by 70%. And that will not happen with capitalism.
And I guess you are American, as protecting the whole of Italy for historic reasons seems very very very over the top for a European like me. 5% is well enough to cover every ancient structure. But I know you mean well ;)
I know,I'm just used to vice dealing with real up to date problems,I would of made a documentary about when the crisis was at its worst a few years back!,none the less I still love their work ;)
Being from a third world country, i am fucking enjoying this video. At least there is someone like us in Europe whom we can relate something to. 😂😂
That sheep farm woman cannot let her husband speak, ever.
Yeah it is really annoying, I'm half Italian and I'm interested in organised crime so I watch this and see if their is a discussion about the video but no there isn't, it just racist slurs, maybe the government is corrupt but it is still a wonderful country and I'm glad someone like you is actually making positive comments instead of all of these immature people in the comment section acting all grown up by being racist believing it is funny and clever.
Lets be real here, there is not one place on this Earth that is not corrupt. Bring it back to reality please.
anyone else notice that quick ``who the fuck is thy guy`` subtitle :D
Looks like a good description of yourself, it sums it up pretty much..
I've heard that creepy background music on other VICE documentaries but I can't remember in which ones.
Stereotypical Italian gesticulation @ 8:52 lol
Top Journalism and a top video, 1 hour well spent :)
I love how everybody talks with their hands... shame about everything else. Great stuff as always, VICE.
I think you need to re-read my comment. I didnt say there isnt any drug trafficking happening in Mexico.
Im Mexican and i go there once a year for new years.
italy has better football 4 world cups,better cars -lamborgini,ferrari,bugati,maseratti,better bikes - ducati aprillia,better brands - gucci ,armani, versaci,dolce & gabbana,fendi, pradda, bulgari,better fashion Milan,better tourist destinations,alps,tuscany,venice,rome,milan,better richer history ancient sites rome ,pompei ,better climate mediteranean beaches, better food by far,pasta pizza ,lasange, better looking women ..
Damn thank you for putting this up. No one even knows about it. Im sick of smelling garbage.
this problem is very real and has TRAGIC consequences. my mother is from Campagna and recently passed after battling Multiple Myeloma, a bone marrow cancer. No known etiology is currently understood, but researchers are aware of DIOXIN TOXICITY leading to dysplastic cancers. CONNECT THE DOTS!
woa micky- your the comeback king! you should have your own chat show...
Si, penso tu abbia ragione. Io vivo a Reggio Emilia, 200.000 abitanti e problemi diversi.. pero' avendo parenti ad Ischia, passo da Napoli 2/3 volte l'anno. Fino a qualche mese ( passando in taxi dalla stazione centrale al Beverello), la situazione era la stessa di altre grandi aree italiane ( tra cui Milano, Torino... mettici Bologna) ecc
Lol, that sheep lady keeps interrupting everytime her husband tries to say anything XD
Because everyone needs to be aware of every single documentary all the time 24/7.
certainly do
I don't think anyone is trying to hide it in Italy.
Ah, but you forget that the entire world depends on the USA's economy, (yes even insignificant Malta) our debt could be 100 trillion and we most likely would not collapse. The reason I say our economy is better than the EU is because the EU consists of great countries such as Germany and the UK, and countries such as Ireland, Portugal, Spain, and Greece (that's like having four California's). In the end the USA's GDP is 1000's times Malta's.
Pollution is terrible. The average citizen is suffering from their crooked and inept system.
Given the current EU standards, Italy likely wouldn't be admitted into the EU (Italy was one of the founding countries). Many countries want to get in, but few are currently being accepted because leaders don't want to make the EU worse than it already is. This is aside the point that Italy currently wants to ditch the EU because of Greece. Overall, Italy has major corruption and scandal issues and probably isn't a shining example of good governance.
I've been visiting Italy for the last few years, and I've got to say most of the country is relatively (emphasis on relatively) clean (for Europe's standards) with the exception of Naples, which is absolutely, sublimely filthy.
Davy Franck you have to visit Rome, it’s way worse than Naples. If you visit Naples now, you will find it more clean than years ago.
wow vice. there are so many sheltered americans such as myself that would have had no idea about any of this had you and other journalistic agencies not reported on this. bravo.
yeah man ive watch a few of the full lebth ones. whitch in your opinion is tge best
Great information!
You explained that perfectly.
