  • @rudykadous4005 June 23, 2024

  • @ravenpoeacup June 23, 2024

    I have to wonder if they had ordered burgers and brats if it wouldn't have been so suspicious 😂

  • @user-rq1qj6jl3q June 23, 2024

    Are you guys afeard of spell check?

  • @MrOsimendoza June 23, 2024

    Costello retired, after an assassination attempt. Genovese ordered, but Costello only received light skin wounds on his head.

  • @billyborn8432 June 23, 2024

    Carmine galante takes that thrown

  • @frankpaya690 June 23, 2024

    Today the Italians are long gone as far as the narcotic trade goes. It's the central Americans with the Chinese that are bringing the drugs into the United States.

  • @ericwedin4154 June 23, 2024

    He tried to get Costello killed but did not succeed, if I remember correctly?

  • @zdrumdude June 23, 2024

    FEARED….Einstein

  • @blackc757 June 23, 2024

    Imagine getting busted for ordering 20 lb of steak which is not a lot

  • @vickmcfadden833 June 23, 2024

    Ok he didn’t kill Frank Costello as title indicates He had Chin Gigante attempt to kill him but he was barely kicked on side of his head and lived then retired

  • He died from a heart attack.

  • @calstatelynn1787 June 23, 2024

    This is one of the most stupidest title of a Mob history. Frank retired after a non fatal wound

  • @Denny-ok5dj June 23, 2024

    The Biggest Mobsters weren't Italian they were Jews, Bugsy Segel and Meyer Lansky that was the Leader of Murder Inc. and the Bernstein Brothers who Leaders of the Purple Gang

  • @gunnybodett June 23, 2024

    He made him retire not killed him

  • @kevyntaylor9196 June 23, 2024

    If you survive a death sentence, youre free to go.

  • @jeremyburri6984 June 23, 2024

    He DID not kill costello

  • @KIRRAH1 June 23, 2024

    Vito never killed Frank Costello gou dummies. He sent someone to shoot him, Frank lived long after that. Dummies

  • @BrianLohse-vg4wk June 23, 2024

    He didn't kill Frankm

  • @bobkonradi1027 June 23, 2024

    Vito Genovese DID NOT kill Frank Costello. He did issue a "hit" on him, and Costello WAS shot along the side of his head, but it was a basic miss by the shooter, and Costello recovered from the hit (miss). Costello, did , however, decidt to move to Florida and retire from the Mafia, so it a way Genovese did achieve his goal of taking over Costello's mafia boss position.

  • @tomc8617 June 23, 2024

    Folks,
    Despite the wrong info in the title ("Vito Genovese Killed Frank Costello"), the video itself is top notch. It's from the excellent series "Mafias Greatest Hits" and has nothing to do with the person who uploaded it here. It's also a high quality (high resolution) upload (up to 1.2 GB!)

    5 months after the May 1957 failed murder attempt of Frank Costello by Vinny 'The Chin' Gigante under orders from Vito Genovese, Costello ally, the notorious gangster, Albert Anastasia, aka, "Lord High Executioner", was gunned down in a hotel barber shop. This further reduced Costello's hand ( a lot!), all but forcing him to step aside. Anastasia was head of the infamous "Murder Inc".

  • @erents1 June 23, 2024

    Now wait trump is the worlds most feared gangster, which automatically makes him the most feared in the US.

  • @RoninRose-sg1ks June 23, 2024

    Fuck Everybody……. Again…… Thanks NYPD

  • @chrisbgoodv2178 June 23, 2024

    In fact, Gigante was widely derided by other Genovese soldiers for missing a shot at point blank range, when he had been practising the hit for a month.

  • @chrisbgoodv2178 June 23, 2024

    Frank Costello didn't get killed.

  • @user-jv9uv7nz3i June 23, 2024

    We have the Alfono family, very brutal, they beat a business owner and a father of family with a bat and hanged him on a hook in the broom closet of the family home, he was found by his eldest daughter, 1975

  • @dank2476 June 23, 2024

    Change the title. It is a misnomer for crying out loud.

    Hello, my name is Ferd. LOLLLLOOLLL

  • @tommeredith7462 June 23, 2024

    The best thing I can say about Vito G. Is he understood a man’s love for their mother.
    During the time Vincent the Chin Galante was thugging around with his brothers their beloved mother was in need of a life saving surgery and they didn’t have the money.
    Vito admired the potential in all of the brothers especially the Chin so he paid for the surgery and all of the brothers became 100% loyal to Vito.
    When Vito asked the Chin to kill Frank Costello he was all too happy to accommodate and place himself and his brothers to be made in the Genovese crime family.
    Luckily the bullet grazed Franks temple and he didn’t croak.
    The Chin was arrested and he stayed loyal to Omertà as did Costello .
    How about that history.

  • @jububoobaroo67 June 23, 2024

    So many people salty about artistic interpretation.

  • @James-bv4nu June 23, 2024

    After Vito Genovese died, in 1972 Vito Corleone rose up and took over, including 11 Oscar nominations.

  • @cryssiLOVE June 23, 2024

    Lol. Feard.

  • @jamesmacgregor3911 June 23, 2024

    Gambino was the most feared and revered in La Cosa Nostra.

  • @rexbanner4608 June 23, 2024

    Misleading title. Vito Genovese did not kill Frank Costello but I'm sure the video will say that lol

  • @bowers84 June 23, 2024

    This video sucks.

  • @Quanah7 June 23, 2024

    Not worth my time watching when you can’t even get the title correct. Costello outlived Genovese

  • @zittilover June 23, 2024

    Anything for clicks , Frank was never killed by the Chin. Only grazed!!! Clown channel trying to change History?
