Clerical Orthodox Fascist , I'm sure it's been around a lot longer than the soprano's or even my dad.

Listen to your father.

Was ur dad a magician?

Ramon Mercado , no..... waste management lol

Sammy Zee a moulinyan ?

Same! :))) It's just too much BS in his memories...:)))

Trust me it's not BS

He's the greatest legend or the greatest bullshitter/actor in the world!

Lol ive never watched the full interview because i don't find russo interesting, funny, etc etc. I dont dislike him either. Anyways, his being basically a liar or at least a major exaggerator has become a meme lol. Did he tell several lies that have been exposed to be untrue? Or are is tales so fantastical that common sense dictates that hes bs'ing?

@@mikimiyazaki he's never been proven wrong alos old mob guys have come out and stated Russo is stand up and is a man of his word.

my great grand pa was from calabria

How cool. Love it❤ thank you So much. For that wonderful Tidbit xxx

im born in naples i know a lot of dialects but even when you take this in consideration (the dialects) "the italian" spoken in that movie is realy realy bad...

Calabrians curse a lot just so you know lol

Did you ever hear gotti tapes

LOL that's awesome

hehe

Hahahaah this was good!

Holy fuck lmao

Hahahahahahhahahahahahhahahahhahahaahahhahahhaahhahahahahaha

Jeepman89 lol 😂🤦‍♂️

MUCH MORE QUIET than he was during Franzese's 1st interview

Bring Your Own Brilliance his interview style is shit lmao, he literally interrupts everyone

Gianni "Once upon a time" you forget to say! 54:24 after this video his poor children were feeling so ill!..

he just kissed butt

This is gold xD God bless friend

I cant seem to watch more than a few minutes of this interview at a time simply because i dont really like this guy nor do i find anything he says interesting. What i wanna know is why has a meme been created? Your "quote" lol being one of many examples lol.

He made post-its too.

That's funny.

As a citizen of Kentucky, I hereby declare this to be true. Vouch. 💯

Lmaoooo

This

Gave her $1000. to deliver film , I had all kinds of cash ! Another cheap skate that $1000. Killed him cheap Bastard

Richard Scaglione you sound dumb, all of you guys, do you know how much a 100 dollars was, and this guy is a legend, got away with killings, fucked and had a relationship with Marilyn Monroe, been around the Kennedys, and was heavily around the Mafia, the Original Dons of the Mob not to mention, your life is literally shit to his

Mike Lil Guapo this guy is full of shit and you ate it up🤣😂🤣

It was Barzini. And don't ask that again. It insults my intelligence.

He never had the makings of a varsity athlete.

@@ajsky1066 why not?

Made me laugh out loud, too good xD

"The Mafia had infiltrated NASA and needed a bagman to deal with the Aliens when America first went to the Moon on the Apollo Mission. I was the 4th Astronaut that was hidden and not talked about. When we landed on the Moon I met with some Aliens and gave them some Money to not kidnap any Italians when they visit earth with their UFO. They promised to stick to the Midwestern Farmers. Isn't that wild? I just talked to Buzz Aldrin this morning we had Coffee and Bagels." - Gianni Russo

Awesome

LOL

Yes basically he is lol

Which it's all true. That's the crazy part. New York was it back then

@@happytrailsgaming sorry but no 16 year old boy is gonna have sex with Marilyn Monroe when she is banging presidents and millionaires. Utter bullshit. Dude is a story teller

Neutral Drop.. it's not wise to make Jokes about the Savior if the World. I was young and one of the biggest drug dealers in New Orleans in 1971 at 20 yrs old and was smart enough NEVER to Mock God.

Ask Him to reveal Himself and He will if you're SERIOUS .if He saved a knuckle head like me He can save anybody

@@Gremllion maybe he saved a knucklehead because he has a sense of humor. I think he probably had levity. Or at least can understand the good heartedness of a joke.

There’s a book, remember...? Go crazy and read it.

Just don't do a part 3

Well most of it is made up so...

And an entire life of bullshiting...

two seconds? he has three complete scenes. he beats up his pregnant wife in one, gets the shit kicked out of him on another and gets wacked on the last one.

Tell me you’re a moron without saying it. He’s the man antagonist of TGF. It’s his wedding that opens the movie, him who gets sonny killed, and him who is the last death in the film

@@barflytom3273 and a dinner scene in godfather 2 and the wedding scene etc

I mean to be fair he had a pretty decent sized role in the godfather

The absolute truth

You say this on the internet shut the fuck up with your bs

Thank you

I think being on the internet for hours online everyday can mess up older people that were once sociable as well. Excellent point that you made, thank you.

Yeah, sure this guy talks about as much sense as a Jake Paul comment section.

Ya. Did he go into how Marilyn Monroe slept with him yet as a teenager? Or how he killed a man as a kid with a broom handle.... His whole life is like a fish that got away story

Lol he is so full of BS 🤣

I notice the stories never change no matter who interviews usually liars stumble

Every lie has some truth to it

@@johndoe4293 He stumbles a lot.

😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Lmmfao

playbackproductions1 awesome

rofl 😂

Haaaa

And he revealed that who killed the Kennedys wasn't, after all, you and me...

The interviewer's face when the guest was telling the Pablo Escobar story, like he realized he had just spent 90 minutes listening to complete BS. It reminded me of the look on Paulie's face on the Sopranos when he found out Carmine had no idea who he was.

...rode a tank, held a general's rank

Hahahaha sympathy for the devil

-Convinced Hendrix to burn his guitar

he told John Lennon he didn’t need McCartney and mentioned to mick jagger he couldn’t get no satisfaction

You forgot julius caesar he lived next door to brutus.plus he slept with Cleopatra.the italian should sue and dis own questo schifoso antipatico..

I worked with him in Puerto Rico, New York, Washington D.C. I have to admit that he had me going for a while until he began telling the same story he had told me to others, but changed the circumstances. Example; he told me he met with Pablo Escobar over that murder he committed in Vegas. He said he met Escobar in a restaurant he owned in Medellin and he recognized him immediately, gave him a pass, then invited him to his home for the weekend. Then he told the same story, only he met Escobar in a church in Bogotá, and Escobar recognized him right away and offered to take him to his home but Russo feared for his life and said he was filming a movie in Miami, so Pablo had his pilot fly Giannni back to Florida. Now I hear him tel Vlad that he was beaten and tortured by Escobar’s men? Anyone who falls for this is stupid. He wants people to think he’s a wiseguy. Watch “The Offer” and see how Al Ruddy cast Gianni Russo’s part and how he’s portrayed. That’s Al Ruddy setting things straight. He’s called a schmuck in the series for a reason. Has the man lived an incredible life meeting famous people? Popes, Presidents, Kings & Queens? Yes. But takes what he says and cut it in 1/3. All of these stories are for entertainment purposes only. He also got caught recently lying about the 2020 election being rigged, referring to the boss of Philadelphia as “Skinny Nicky”. It’s Skinny Joe Merlino. Russo became careless over time and is easily debunked.

@@pjuggle Of course the details change from one lie to the next. It would be impossible, even for someone with a great memory to keep all the details of all those lies straight in his head. In my opinion people that lie constantly like russo have mental health problems as thats not normal behaviour.

@@Victory1507ci 😂😂😂

Lmao

Don’t forget the “hahaha aha you believe that?!”

😂😂😂😂

Yes, he is an expert in crack

lmao

LMAO

Don't you know he actually took down one of the twin towers on 9/11? Like, with his actual body. True story.

@@ryansgirl2002 no waaay!! Head first or white teeth first? His teeth are so white that they look blue

@@binalmistry oh head first, obviously. The teeth disintegrated on impact, hence that big cloud of white dust that engulfed everything. The mob made him a brand new set out of Chiclets gum.

It's literally a fantastic tale, I'm not taken for a second but best wishes to him and all of us who hear him 💐👀✨

He has better teeth then the Kennedy's.

100% but if the story is true ... she's a pedophile 😳

You actually believe this bull?

and much bullshit.

Paul Sykes 😂

@Paul Sykes lol

Old Italian guys at work after they retire they come back for every BBQ and every free meal there is. They usually corner some young guy and start telling stories. The only thing you could understand is the “You not gonna believe” they use at the beginning of every sentence.

@Jason Bouphasavanh If he's from Alabama, why not?

Yep

Italians,jews and greeks all have this ‘talent’...i feel sorry for the grandkids who have to listen to these tales every time they stay with them...(coming from experience)

Better than hearing Patrick's uninformed questions, like with Franzese...you know?

PROFILE OF A TOUGH GUY. And I know many - Here I will tell you about a man named Sam . Sam was born in Italy. During the second world war the USA bombed Italy and during one bombing raid Sam's dear mother and father will killed, leaving 10 year old Sam alone in a world of destruction and misery along with his five younger brothers and sisters. Standing in the bombed out rubble it total despair Sam was terrified: No place to go, no place to eat for his little family; Little Sam scratched though the ruins and and worked until he was exhausted and sick..never quitting-- to get some food for his brothers and sisters; desperate little children dressed in rags digging in the garbage for whatever they could find with their older 10 year old brother leading them. From that day on until everyone one of his little family was old enough to care for themselves-- Sam worked hard and honestly without stealing or killing anyone to feed and clothe his sweet orphaned family. Finally when they were all old enough to care for themselves--Sam moved to America. And went to work immediately at honest labor and built a thriving construction business....I met "tough guy" SAM COPANI when he was in his late sixties, when he hired me to work for him. Sam worked circles around me even at his advanced age and was a wonderful kind and honest man . This man and others like him from all over the world built this wonderful country of ours without robbing ,stabbing, murdering, and preying on fellow American like vultures---as do the like of this other Sam on this video who talks like some man of great wisdom and makes money bragging about his beastly life style. Wake up people..grow up .One of sams son's sons is a lawyer the other is in restaurant business..all honest law abiding citizen the like of which bult up this country...not tear down and destroy..THANKS SAM COPANI GOD BLESS YOUR FAMILY FROM A CALBRESE FORMER MEMBER OF THE ITALIAN CIVIL RIGHTS LEAGUE CHAPTER 5

I grew up around this people, and my uncle. They can carry a a business conversation that can last 100 years. Trust me! Every time we when into a Steak house bar, there was a new name in it.

Sauce or Gravy ????🥳

Bc he’s full of shit haha

Tru👌

They would probably hate as soon he walks in Lmfaoo

carlos ortiz lmao deff once a couple drinks get in him you start seeing family hit the door 😂

He's the one who you don't invite....or do, and put him beside someone else you don't like.

Nothing wrong with telling stories, it shows he has had an interesting life, compared to armchair keyboard heroes showing disrespect and babbling about things on here, they would not say to someone's face in public. Mainly because they have not got a snowman's chance in hell of mixing in the same social circles as them. Plus people may have asked him to mention things. Stories, good ones, shows people have character and are interesting. Rather than just bleating out bullshit for likes on here. Normally from lame brain, inexperienced youngsters who do not have a clue about life. Poetic licence ya boring little dweeb-eens. Why let this, which is something you can do nothing about bother you ladies? Hilarious. Bloody fishwife moaning planks.

A better actor than we’d give him credit for. Can’t wait to see what lies he tells next

Yes indeed. The fight scene in Godfather is obvious he was not being hit. It used to be part of discussions about the film.

The guy's been around

@@daddypoorbucks3406 Around some BS

He rly knew all these ppl he talkin bout but i think he lies about lot of things. Robert deniro himself said gianni walk the walk and talk the talk . U cant have this much information about that era and ppl without being there

Patrick: "interesting"

I guess you missed the beginning about Joe Colombo and the Italian Anti-Defamation league. Look it up. We all hate the constant depicting of Mafia characters and their glorification.

3minutes in and you just saved me a bunch of time. Thanks

It was explained in the beginning...

A screenplay about his life was circulating for many years but got nixed. Al Ruddy slammed the door shut on him in “The Offer”. The way he was portrayed was deliberate. I’ve worked with him three times and I have to admit he have me going until he got careless and told the same story he told me to others but changed too many circumstances. That’s when I realized this was just a gifted storyteller who had lived an incredibly lucky life. He’s a master at improvisation. His vodka and his wines are outstanding. But take his stories and cut them into about 1/3.

Wouldn't get any sleep with all the story telling. Lol

I can think of lots of worse company.

All mobsters say they like the Godfather because it's total bullshit and glamorizes the mob. Very few people realize that the kindly Don and Corleone family hardly do any crime in the movie and their "battle" is with drug dealers. Sure. Goodfellas, on the other hand...is the movie mobsters hate, because it tells the true story of how they continually snitch, back-stab each other and then go to jail or get murdered.

@@toncuz8291 one of my favorite movies of all time is Goodfellas The Godfather on the other hand...I don't know. I guess it's because with Goodfellas the story is real

@@travelreview5962 Because Russo is a moron.

Dave this is 🤣🤣🤣

Oh yeah….cause you know polio is so bad again….

He is definitely exaggerating or lying about stuff when he laughs after talking about the stories

SHOW TIME as much as I love these stories, I have to agree. If you watch other interviews, the stories change, but the main points usually stay the same. I think he’s done most of the things he claims he’s done, but you can probably throw all the embellished details in the trash.

Definitely I have spotted two differences already. He said he was given 2 100 dollar bills when he's said before it was three and he also changed the whole story on how Costello got him under his wing he said before it was because he was a cripple and he called him out, but here he said he was offended because he asked if he was telling the truth which is just completely different

@@MBG-ck9ou plz rewatch d interview ... I can see u so confused
