A brother of Al Capone was convinced that he had killed someone in a fight so, he ran away to the circus in the Midwest. Years later he reconnected with Al who confessed that the person was not killed. Al was beaten up by this brother after the revelation. Correct?
I always felt a little bad for Elliot Ness since his career pretty much stopped after he helped arrest Capone and died in obscurity without many people knowing who he was until the Untouchables TV show came out.
Cool fact, I lived in one of his old homes in Michigan. Right across the river from his lieutenant’s home later owned by Muhammad Ali. We found thousands of liquor bottles on the property and it had a built in watch tower and siren.
My dad grew up in Kalamazoo and I guess my great grandma and Capones sister were friends. She was ostracized because of her brother but had a nice house
Really good video here this didn't disappoint also who knows did see a portion of this in another part something else did before this on some documentary series about the Chicago Outfit.
I really enjoy this narrator I'm glad he's doing more videos again... Couldn't stand the other guy doing the videos I couldn't watch them makes me think of someone running their nails across the chalkboard...
Everybody hating on people's narrations. I can't believe this is still being brought up. Everybody deserves a chance at a job. Maybe it's not the same but in all reality. Nobody's supposed to be. Fn'g A!!
My family members are burried in the same row of graves as capone at the mount caramel cemetery. There are large hedges covering and blocking his Grave stone. The hedges cover the name and you have to either pull the bushes back or stand on your tippy toes just to see it, you wouldn't know if you weren't told, but i've been going to that cemetery for over thirty five years now and I always just go take a peek for the nostalgia of it. I heard that the hedges were to protect from grave robbers as he was buried with guns, made out of gold, but I have no way of proving that as it's what I heard when I was a kid..
Would love you to do a timeline video of the birth of Australia , from the time the first fleet arrived i n 1788 until January 1901 when our constitution was adopted. So many interesting people were around then
I think you forgot to mention his resort with a private lake to fly in booze from Canada to bootleg. Couderay, Wisconsin. On the Lac Courte Orioles Indian Reservation. Al Capone's Hide Out. Used to be open for tours. Had a tavern, stone jail cell located in the middle of driveway in front of house between them. The 2 story house had rifle peeps built into the walls.
His career was already pretty big, he did that huge investigation into that Staten Island mental asylum in the 70’s that showed how hellish mental hospitals were and led to massive reforms and closures.
Nitti was more just a titular head, ricca was often heard overruling most what nitti said and often in a dismissive attitude. New York didn’t respect nitti and only would deal with ricca and accardo
5:47 When I did a travel nurse assignment in Greybull, Wyoming, I would drive to Cody, Wyoming to shop for items at Walmart. Cody is named after Buffalo Bill Cody, who opened Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show on May 19, 1883 in Omaha.

@@KaedeSenou All you can hear is random piano keys? There is a whole lot more going on than that some of music has multiple instruments and it's all complete music not random notes, while it might be quieter than older videos you might want to check your audio settings or get your hearing checked.

LOL this guy has a totally weird/retro nasal voice like a baritone Casey Kasem, but by the time you finish the whole video you kinda like it. It's messed up how many people like it so much they need to make comments about how much the other narrators suck.

Are you ever gonna do more Timeline videos? There’s still the 00’s and the 10’s. :)
I sincerely hope so. That’s my favorite series this channel has ever done.
Yea I've been waiting for the 60s and 00's 😢
But those years SUCKED
I don't know if that counts as history yet. Though it was weird
A brother of Al Capone was convinced that he had killed someone in a fight so, he ran away to the circus in the Midwest. Years later he reconnected with Al who confessed that the person was not killed. Al was beaten up by this brother after the revelation. Correct?
Finally, my favorite voice talent.
I'm overjoyed the narrator is back for good
finally!
It's his tone. He makes you feel what he's saying! I love him too.
How long was he gone for
I always felt a little bad for Elliot Ness since his career pretty much stopped after he helped arrest Capone and died in obscurity without many people knowing who he was until the Untouchables TV show came out.
I also miss the old weird history logo, the old logo was way better and classier.
Agree
the true story of James Capone (Hart) is absolutely fascinating.. do an episode just about him..
How about a video of the Chicago " Black Sox"
Love the OG. Best. narrator. ever.
New guy ok. Getting better with practice. Props for effort. 🎉
Cool fact, I lived in one of his old homes in Michigan. Right across the river from his lieutenant’s home later owned by Muhammad Ali. We found thousands of liquor bottles on the property and it had a built in watch tower and siren.

The narrator of choice🥂 thanks!❤
As a big fan of Boardwalk Empire, this is an amazing docu! Much thanks!
Heard a rumor that Al Capone had a summer place on Gun Lake in Southern Michigan.
Thank you for this video! 💠
Larger than life, Al was. His name will be remembered for a long time to come.

Weird history isn’t weird history without this guy, it’s a similar situation to the biographics channel
Jeezus would you people just STFU over the narrator? Christ.
Thank god I’m not the only one! This guy is one of my favorite voices on TH-cam I was devastated when it was the other dude and stopped watching

He’s back
Yo please do a timeline on the 2000's. I wanted this for a long time because despite being born in '07, never truly experienced the decade
Weird History. So comforting. Love Love.
do a seperate video on eliot nest please

It was our stupidity in banning alcohol that made all these gangsters so powerfu!. Keep that in mind when running around trying to ban things.🤔
Excellent family photos I've not seen elsewhere. Thanks Weird History!
Check out Weird Blues Tales 😊
Thank you ❤
Can you do a video about John Dillinger please?
Would love you to do a timeline video of the birth of Australia , from the time the first fleet arrived i n 1788 until January 1901 when our constitution was adopted. So many interesting people were around then
Jeez! And I thought I had a screwed-up family!
Back when Capone was at the top of his power , he earned for the mob about $100 million . In todays money that is equivalent of $1.5 Billion
I think you forgot to mention his resort with a private lake to fly in booze from Canada to bootleg. Couderay, Wisconsin. On the Lac Courte Orioles Indian Reservation. Al Capone's Hide Out. Used to be open for tours. Had a tavern, stone jail cell located in the middle of driveway in front of house between them. The 2 story house had rifle peeps built into the walls.
Bring back the Timeline videos. They were by far the BEST thing on this channel, and we all want to see more.
With only one thumbs up, I doubt we "all" want to see more.
7:46 Stanley Tucci is one of my favorite actors!
I love this channel so much.

5:30 The movie Black Sheep is a Chris Farley and David Spade comedy.
Very funny, great movie!
I've never heard of the Hollywood blackmail scheme; that sounds fascinating! Do a video on that!
Yes i also enjoy your videos better. You have a great voice. Yes Al Copone was an interesting character.
welcome back my good sir!
The Mystery of Al Capone's Underground Vaults in 1986 would end up boosting Geraldo Rivera's Career
His career was already pretty big, he did that huge investigation into that Staten Island mental asylum in the 70’s that showed how hellish mental hospitals were and led to massive reforms and closures.
Awww. You quoted "California Love." I know, "The Untouchables." Nonetheless...
Nitti was more just a titular head, ricca was often heard overruling most what nitti said and often in a dismissive attitude. New York didn’t respect nitti and only would deal with ricca and accardo
1:35 The Fratellis, in the movie The Goonies, was almost certainly based off of Mama Capone and her two sons.
2:04 Louie runs away to join the circus on the movie We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story.
Great movie!
That picture of Nitti looks like "Shemp" Howard.
Never gotten to a video so early lol
What is the purpose of this comment. Why would anyone want to know this
I found it interesting that Capone's son was known as"Sonny".
Interesting, actually a few of relatives were law enforcement in NYC. Everyone had a nick name.
Can you make a video of POWs
Do a video about Jimmy Hoffa
2:18 like son like mom
A+ video!
LOVE IT! Very unique history and all over pop culture today!
Hurrah for this narrator!🎉 Idc for anyone else

Grandpa and Uncle Mike did work for him. Kinda common in Chicago.
5:47 They certainly need to bring back Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, would love to see that!
There was a really bad movie a couple of years ago staring Tom Hardy that details the final years of Al Capone
8:05 I remember walking on the railroad tracks when I was a kid, great times!
