If you have a routine and your just towing the line it's no big deal. Easy ride. The loneliness is what gets you in there. I could care less about the other inmates and/ or sharks. The loneliness is horrible. Been in the hole a few times and it was just insane. You can literally hear the clock down the hall tick and seconds feel like minutes and there is nothing you can do. You can either beat your head against the wall, or go nuts. No windows, no connection to reality and half the time there is no hot water. Even in that condition when the hot water heaters are broken it's absolutely horrible. Made my stay 10 times worse. You get out and you push the wall of your shower because you forgot your home. You have to keep hitting a little steel button to keep the shower running for 10 seconds a push. When you get out you start pushing the wall in your own shower.

    I watched Gravano's video where he described the federal "supermax." His comment about the "Alcatraz of the Rockies" may seem difficult to believe, but Sammy is 99% accurate. As a former warden at the penitentiary, I agree that the ultra-secure environment is not humane and provides a setting that goes far beyond needed. If given a choice to be sentenced to life at the ADX or the death penalty --- doing time at the "supermax" would be a far worse penalty. Soon the federal death penalty will be discontinued (later this year). More inmates will be housed at this prison in Colorado instead of being put to death. Don't assume incarceration at this location would be better than the death penalty. Gravano was able to handle time at the prison --- many don't. Bob Hood (Warden - Retired. 2005)

He betrayed both his criminal brothers and the law enforcement that protected him and gave him a ridiculous sentence of 5 years for killing 19 people and allowed him to keep his illicit earnings he made from organised crime yet he betrayed the very law that protected him by running a drug ring in Arizona. The man isn’t capable of uttering a syllable of truth and very predatory in his manipulation of human emotions. He murdered his own wife’s brother and still went home to her at night as if nothing had happened. He’s beyond ruthless and been a psychotic and stone cold killer what is there to trust about such a man besides knowing he has secured a place in hell. I think it’s a safe bet to say he will never see heaven given all he has done which is beyond contempt and evil. There are many criminals out there with a heart and Sammy Gravano isn’t one of that

    I remember reading Underboss when I was about 13 years old. I pulled the book off my dad's bookshelf at random. Needless to say, I've been interested in Sammy's story ever since. I grew up in Brooklyn, and lived in Bath Beach for a time, so reading about Sammy's youth felt like a story close to home for me. It's fascinating to hear about this side of reality, one that would otherwise be inconceivable to most, and from such a candid and eloquent source! Your videos are very much appreciated, Sammy.

      @Sreten Jocić Kids don't just take 1 ecstasy and drive their life into a ditch. Most of them just go to parties, smoke some weed or whatever, then go on to normal lives. Some had crappy childhoods and some have a natural risk taking inclination, those are the ones at risk for addiction. There's also adult drug use that isn't problematic.

    I was in super max in Florence Arizona it’s the same set up. It is a very very lonely cold place and as human beings we need contact with other people to survive. When you go years without touching another person you start to lose touch with reality! I respect any man who’s in there and whoever made it out with his sanity still in tact!!!!! I was in there for 11 years and lost it all!! I know exactly what Sammy is talking about I was entered into the systems security threat group so I was slammed down the whole time!! Prayers to all the fellas still living in there🙏🏽 I got my family back and have 3 more kids. I’m trying everyday to be a better man but something’s you just don’t forget. The mind is a very powerful thing!!💯
