Telling the ladies they have a nice **** has always give me into trouble 😂
I believe that line was the cause of many of Al Capone’s problems in his life😅
Bro your one of the best channels in youtube now. i love your animation i love the strories i love the way you talk in the storie i love your videos your the best man and it's only a matter of time before you become famous if you continue with these videos and making stories about other things not just about the mafia now don't get me wrong i love your videos but it would be cool to see you make stories other than the mafia hope you don't stop making videos and i hope you will become famous one day ❤
Thanks for watching Hussain, and leaving the kind words🙏 I do plan to pivot away from the mafia at some point once I get through all my planned upcoming videos. I’ve received some great suggestions from viewers so far on other people to feature e.g. British, Mexico gangsters etc. which I will have a focus on in the future. Do let me know however if you have anyone specific in mind that you would like me to create a video on one day👍
7:54 i love this guy’s delivery 😂
😅
I gotta say, the image of Capone in the Santa Hat was Adorable
I couldn’t resist having him wear the Santa hat😅
This is why Boardwalk Empire was a bit mistaken. Arnold Rothstein would have never threatened Frankie Yale. Frankie would have beaten him to a pulp. Frankie Yale wasn’t anyone to mess with.
Thanks for watching👍 I’m actually holding off watching Boardwalk Empire as I want to try and portray my interpretation of the early 20th century gangsters on this TH-cam channel first. It will be interesting to watch Boardwalk Empire one day to see how accurate they are… judging by your comment, Ive got a few surprises coming my way when I watch it🤔 Although I must admit that I don’t showcase Al Capone in my videos in a good way😅
You can't just talk about Italian gangsters.You got gangsters all over this world.Different races, different colors, different creeds.Trust me , the more stories on different gangsters will bring more people to this channel
@@DevonDoweary-es4ry Jewish and Irish Gangsters maybe, other than that no one cares!!
Thanks for watching Devon👍 You were right about making a video on Bumpy Johnson, it’s one of the highest viewed videos on my channel at the moment. I will definitely expand from Italian gangsters at some point. Just that all my research is based on Italian gangsters at the moment, but will need to learn about other ethnicities at some point👍
I do hope people would want to watch my future British gangster videos one day😅
Listen to all the mafia fan boys cry 😢
😳😅
Do check out the videos on gangsters featured in this video: Al Capone: th-cam.com/video/RZFRWuMyuGE/w-d-xo.html Hymie Weiss: th-cam.com/video/C6Lb5bUGi5k/w-d-xo.html Johnny Torrio: th-cam.com/video/oWqQWRoyiv8/w-d-xo.html Dean O’Banion: th-cam.com/video/VGPnR48gE88/w-d-xo.html Big Jim Colosimo: th-cam.com/video/Qc_qf6Dzo24/w-d-xo.html
The one thing that I like about Remus is that after he became rich he became so confident and arrogant that he started speaking in a third person about himself
Thanks for watching👍 I was meant to mention him talking in third person in the video, but wasn’t sure on whether he had a medical condition that caused him to do that, or whether it was in fact due to him being arrogant🤔
@@Mafiono It was the latter due to him becoming rich
Thanks for confirming👍
@@Mafiono Your welcome
Thanks, I started this channel to learn about people in world history. I’m always happy to receive any useful information that I should have perhaps included in my videos🙂
The thing about Hymie is that Weiss isn’t his last name. That was the last name his parents adopted when they arrived to America
I wasn’t sure on how to pronounce his real last name, so decided to leave it out🤦♂️ I don’t even think that I pronounced the name “Henryk” correctly now that I think about it😳😅
@@Mafiono It understandable since his last name is Polish
So Maranzano was first going to join the Catholic Church but then decided to take a pay cut to join the Mafia
That’s one way to look at it🤣
Of all the ways he coulda died in that business it was the fried chicken that killed him. I stopped eating fried foods about 7 yrs ago.
Thanks for watching👍 Fried food is definitely a silent killer!
Amazing
👍
love your video can you make a video about the kray twins
Thanks for watching👍 I’m currently focusing on the American gangsters at the moment. I’ll definitely do a video about the Kray twins one day in the future!
@@Mafiono 👍👍
He's one of my favorite characters on Boardwalk Empire. Fantastic artwork.
Thanks for watching Diontae👍 I’m yet to watch Boardwalk Empire as I’m waiting to finish my video’s on the early 20th gangsters before watching it. It would be interesting to see how my interpretation of the lives of these gangsters compare to that portrayed in Boardwalk Empire one day🤔
@@Mafiono You have given more info on the gangster than Boardwalk Empire. Your portrayals are unique.
Other than Boardwalk empire this is the most information I've ever heard about him. "Well then Remus can go F himself" 😂🤣
Thanks for watching Diontae. You’re definitely making me think about Boardwalk Empire more these days😅
Alphonse “”Snorky” Capone
Thanks for watching Johnny👍 I do regret not having a mention of that nickname in my video🤦♂️😅
Change the music. Put something more appropriate like older authentic Italian music
Thanks for watching👍 It can be difficult to select music for my videos. I go by whether the tone of the video is serious or lighthearted. I chose a lighthearted tone for this video, so a more lighthearted tune. Unfortunately I couldn’t find anything more suitable than this tune🤦♂️😅
@@Mafiono Great video nonetheless 👍
This dialogue is so gritty and real
Thanks for watching John👍
You should also do all types of gangsta's not just early.20 gangsters got 1970s gangsters.You got gangsters from the 80s.Thanks to the 90s, all the way into the 20s.Trust me there's a lot of stories out there
Thanks for watching Devon👍 I do plan to make videos on gangsters from more recent times. Just trying to go through everything in a more chronological order for now until I start learning about the more recent gangsters🤞
His conversation with the judge was smooth. Fantastic tale.
Thanks for watching Diontae👍 Learning about Rothstein made me want to start this channel. I’m just glad people take the time to watch this particular video, as it’s the one that allowed me to learn to draw, animate and edit a video🙂
Great animation 🌆, very insightful 👍👍
Thanks again for watching Diontae, it’s great to learn that this was an insightful video for you!
Do check out the videos on gangsters featured in this video: Dutch Schultz: th-cam.com/video/4i5EtzO9JKg/w-d-xo.html Vincent Mad Dog Coll: th-cam.com/video/3o3GFWVopQ8/w-d-xo.html Salvatore Maranzano: th-cam.com/video/205i4hLY8ro/w-d-xo.html Joe The Boss Masseria: th-cam.com/video/06LRB2Mqtho/w-d-xo.html
Bumpy went to war for control of harlem.That made a deal with the mob because he use their political connection toget the queen out of jail inwhich Schultz put her in their and he used the mob muscle to wack Schultz. Who Bumpy asked when he was warring with Schultz etc. Fa e it Bumpy stand out because in those days they didn't have plenty black organizations that would go against the mob
Sam young in them in Chicago
Never heard of him!
Excited to be your 195th subscriber! 😃
Thanks for watching the video and supporting my channel Richard👍 I’m hoping that you will tell everyone you know now about the infamous “Perfume Burglar”😉🤣
I heard of him. But the story sounds like its being told by one of Hymie's bitter relatives, Instead of what actually happened.
@@2Kool4hisownkool 🤔
He only ran it because lucky and other Italians said he could that is FACTS
Lucky Luciano had judges & the Irish police behind him tho
yeah....except for the fact that isn't what happened at all. Cope harder.
Just like Jimmy " The Gent " Burke, Meyer Lansky, Ruby Stein, etc. Who all understood the way the game is played and accepted it...FACTS
It's mildly amusing that despite the actual empirical, historical FACT that Luciano understood that there was no way he or anyone else were going to take Harlem without suffering significant loses; decided to work with Johnson instead of going to war and ending up looking week like Schultz; people to this day still try to pretend that Johnson was "allowed" to operate in his own territory because they can't get over Black Men being not only feared and respected by other criminal organizations...but FEARED
@@willf.5608 Dude...stop the cap. Luciano made the decision to work with Johnson instead of going head up with him because he routinely made Schultz look weak, along with the fact Luciano knew that not only was Johnson competent and ran a tight crew, but also that there was no way he was going to take Harlem without significant loses.
Apparently Lucky and Bumpy could be found playing chess in front of a local YMCA.
Hewlett: How about we just avoid all the headache and you give me a cut of your profits Bumpy: I'd rather just have the headache 😏 Bumpy Johnson was standing on business💯 😂😂😂😂😂
Do check out the videos on gangsters featured in this video: Dutch Schultz: th-cam.com/video/4i5EtzO9JKg/w-d-xo.html
I'm sorry but the odds of this white gangsters actually knowing anything about these black gangsters is about slim to none these guys were so much bigger than them as an Italian American I'm almost insulted that YS white people always have to be like downgraded to make it look like blacks were always competing with us and when they weren't this is not a put down on them it's just the facts they weren't on the same level I mean the line in godfather Michael we're bigger than US steel That's how big the American Mafia was no black gangsters were ever even much bigger than just running like a little couple streets in a neighborhood selling crack or something come on now
One of the greatest African American gangsters at this time.He even saved lucky luciano from a knife and when't live in prison together
Thanks for watching Devon👍 Agree, there’s so much more to Bumpy Johnson that I couldn’t fit into this video. I’m aiming to do longer videos on people such as Bumpy in the future once my skills improve on my weekly uploads🤞
Lies 😂a bum
@@briankane460truth hurts huh? Deal with it
Bumpy is a legend
@@briankane460 😳
my favorite gangster for some reason I was always obsessed wit Deanie O'Banion... great video my guy u got a new subscriber
Thanks so much for watching and supporting my channel Dizzy👍 I had never even heard of O’Banion until researching Capone. I definitely had to feature O’Banion on this channel when I learnt about the North Side gang
@@Mafiono no doubt. Yeah he headed that North side Gang and held his own when it came to Capone and Torio. Basically had the Outfit on their toes for years with Hymie Weiss and Bugs Moran making multiple attempts over the next 5 years. Almost killed Torio. Took the St Valentines Massacre in 1929 to basically end what started from killing Deanie. So yea he's pretty important to know
Great Channel, Hope you do a Video on Owney Madden sometime aswell👍
@@madders8922 Thanks for the great feedback👍 I’ll check out Owney Madden, and will see if I can make a video on him too

You should do a video on the black mobster ellsworth bumpy johnson
Thanks for the suggestion Devon. I featured him briefly in my Dutch Schultz video, but he definitely deserves his own video! I’ll add it on the list of upcoming videos over the next few weeks👍
Does anyone want to see a dedicated video on Al Capone?🤷
I’d wait on him. So many more lesser known guys that are super interesting. You could do Paul Kelly who was like Torio’s mentor. Though I suppose Capone would be more popular.
Great suggestion! I’ll add Paul Kelly onto my list of upcoming videos👍
