THE TOUGHEST MAFIA BOSS - THE STORY OF ALBERT ANASTASIA

Support the channel by buying branded merch - potustoronuzak...
Have you ever heard of Murder Incorporated? The Brooklyn gang that committed hundreds of contract murders over the years. Anastasia was their patron and one of their main customers.
Every mob boss has a lot of blood on his hands; otherwise, there's no way to get to the top in this world. But Anastasia didn't just get his hands dirty with blood, he bathed in it. According to journalists' calculations he had more than six dozen murders on his conscience, of which about a third were by his own hands. His manic behavior not only scared those from whom he tried to get something, but even his colleagues, other bosses of the Cosa Nostra.
And the worst part. Anastasia was not stupid. He understood perfectly well how he could use his reputation to gain control of the Port of Brooklyn, part of the largest port in the United States. You can imagine the money that could be made there.
So if you're interested in hearing the story of the most brutal mob boss in the United States, who earned such nicknames as "Lord High Executioner" and "The Mad Hatter" during his lifetime, then meet Albert Anastasia, on the other side of the law.

Even his name was scary a mix of anesthetic and euthanasia 😮

[@davidsauls9542]

That barber shop was in a hotel. Santo Trafficante Jr. was staying in that hotel and left about an hour before the murder.

[@utube-r9q]

You are right 😊

[@joseperez1085]

Amazing how the mad hatter got caught with his guard down and knowing the heat had, did not have more muscle around him…

[@EricZuniga69]

Joe Adonis never worked for Anastasia. Adonis is above Anastasia…or at most they were equal partners.

[@lench1762]

Anastasia was a boss Adonis was not above him

[@EricZuniga69]

I was talking about the time line in the 1930s where he said Adonis was under Anastasia. They are from different families to begin with. Anastasia was Underboss to Mangano becoming Boss in the 1950s while Adonis was the top capo of Luciano who became acting Boss with Costello when Luciano went to jail and Genovese went to Italy in 1936. Other references also said it was Adonis who gives Anastasia orders. This video was the first I heard that it was the other way around.

[@lench1762]

@@EricZuniga69 right but i dont think either of them gave eachother orders

They're all in hell now .

[@alessandroali8433]

He doesn't say "Calabria" he says cala-bree-A. Nicky Scarfo was from Calabria too. Frank Costello also. I was born in Calabria in a town called Locri. 'Ndrangheta is everywhere.

[@JOEFABULOUS.]

I thought cosa nostra members had to be from Sicily

[@Holy_hand-grenade]

Different but similar non-Sicilian org in the old world, they merged together in US during early 20thc.

[@MLGProTroller]

@@JOEFABULOUS.No. That changed with the death of Salvatore Maranzano, and Joe Masseria. Lucky Luciano changed that when he took over the commission.

[@joec3641]

@@JOEFABULOUS.na you just have to be Italian

[@Jlahandle]

I read the full story of his very earliest years . Sicily was struck by an earthquake followed by a tsunami. Wide spread devastation and no real support from the north. " I'm not afraid of going to hell. I grew up in hell !!! " His words.

[@geofftaylor8627]

​@@VitoDonatucci.jr.215ton.y2They were a mixed group of Italian and Jewish murderers.All this who was boss doesn't matter.lepke had big money/ power.The mafia after the jewish gangs got older or died or dropped out and kept it shtum.

[@muaythai1814]

Albert was a very ruthless and callous man, no doubt, what he had done to frank scalise brother joe was horrible. Albert i believe was definitely a mobster personified, but i think one who could possibly match him was Giuseppe florino. Carmine galante was up there too for pure brutality but no doubt very intelligent.

[@elvinkrigsman6956]

Lepke and lucky were the only guys Albert listened too

[@yungkalimusic]

1. Murder Inc. 2. DeMeo Crew 3. Young Terks 4. Gallo Crew

[@richardcampana9179]

FRANK COSTELLO was shot in May, 1957 NOT 1955, as stated in the video.

[@gregory7414]

Costello got shot in May 1957. Not as you said in 1955...

[@itswebb4799]

I dont know why all these mafia videos say most of the names wrong. 😑 I mean you did research learn how to pronounce it correct. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ЛукЛучкин]

It's AI

[@ontheothersideofthelaw]

It’s not AI

[@CG_VON]

I don't think he was to touch because it was people unease and willing to take him out. It is noted the killers were given orders. Very fear, respected mob bosses die of nautral causes.

[@IloveOtherPplsMsry]

If you want someone who could give Anastasia a run for his money for being a psycho with power, look up Nicky Scarfo.

[@AlanOLeary209]

Scarfo was a thug.. as bad as Anastasia was he did his own dirty work. Scarfo was rotten to the core

[@Styxswimmer]

Scarfo was stupid. Anastasia was far more intelligent than Scarfo. Nicky scarfo was just ruthless while Anastasia was smart AND ruthless.

[@dr.barrycohn5461]

Or scarpa

[@mikejohe1920]

Roy de meo real bad man too
