- Today we take a peek at the darkened underworld of the Mafia, and one if it's more outrageous associates.
"Sam "Mad Sam" DeStefano (September 13, 1909 − April 14, 1973) was an Italian-American gangster who became one of the Chicago Outfit's most notorious loan sharks and sociopathic killers. Chicago-based Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents, such as William F. Roemer, Jr., considered DeStefano to be the worst torture-murderer in the history of the United States. The Outfit used the mentally unstable and sadistic DeStefano for the torture-murders of Leo Foreman and Arthur Adler, the murder of DeStefano's younger brother, Michael DeStefano, Outfit enforcer and many others. However, due to DeStefano's deranged mental state, the Outfit never let him become a made man. At least one Outfit insider, Charles Crimaldi, claimed DeStefano was a Devil worshipper."

More mob stories PLEASE.
More mafia stories please
Qxir
I would love to know more about the Mafia if you don’t mind me asking?
Thank you for reading.🙏
Qxir love all the post subscribed
Do the Irish mob
You forgot that story about how one of his men ran off with $25,000 from a loan shark victim. Sam found him, tied him to a radiator and tortured him for three days behind a restaurant, then forced the guy's family to piss on his charred, half-dead body during a banquet in said restaurant.
There's a few bits and pieces I left out for the sake of brevity! He was a mad fucker!
Jesus christ
@@stoutorangutang2300 You literally took the words out of my mouth.
Gaspar Tiznado +That was Peter Capiletti. He outlived Sam by quite a bit, dying of natural causes in 2001.
Half dead? Was he dead or not?
During another court date in Rockford, when he was serving as his own lawyer as was his practice, he confused everyone in the courtroom when he approached the jury and asked, "Have you ever seen an elephant?" Moments later, DeStefano suddenly changed his plea to guilty, telling the jury, "something had come to light that I had not known before." The jury found him guilty and fined him $100 for disorderly conduct.
What was the jurys reply?
Yes we know how to read Wikipedia

I think Qxir is the long lost Irish cousin of Sam O'Nella. Love this channel. Informative and funny stuff.

g G./cod god Sam does random/varying subjects. Qxir talks about interesting individuals
IamThe Spy! So there pretty much commentary channels but focus on different subjects
@@iamthespy9808 as far as writing wit and timing id argue Sam is far suppirior
"Which he would later learn that Sam had pissed in, well surely he would've noticed the distinct Coors Lite flavour"
I almost chocked on my stomach listening to that.
Anytime the mob asks you to a meat packing plant turn them down. Also action Jackson is an awesome name
Now that i think about it i Actually don't think that just turning them down is such a good idea, this might upset them. You should politely decline instead. Much less likely to anger the homicidal mad men you're dealing with.😉
considering it was a fellow mob member they baited in they probably just said they got a snitch at the meat plant and they wanted him to really beat him or something
Ball park Frank's anyone?
Carl Weathers is Action Jackson. Rumor has it that he isnt even human. That he is the misplaced child of Bigfoot.
Action Bronson is better
3 years ago this video was released, and i've watched it numerous times. I would really appreciate it if you covered more "Mafia" stories or "Chicago Mafia" stories, the topic isn't exactly taught in schools even in the U.S. so anyone who wants to learn about the crime ridden organized crime syndicates of the 20th century have to do boring deep dives. Meanwhile you sum up these events into a easy to follow and easy to enjoy (sometimes) comedic informative videos. Thank you.
Whenever you say “not taught in schools,” first ask yourself “why?” Why would we teach schoolchildren about horrible criminals and their escapades that didn’t really contribute greatly to American history? In high school, you may cover the mafia during prohibition, but in any other context, it would make the subject into either A. An underdog who the students think is cool and want to emulate it (not good) or B. a splatterfest that would upset the parents. We already have a packed curriculum that barely touches on the important stuff. We definitely don’t have time to talk about the mafia.
Not everything historical has to be taught in school. This is a subject to research on your own. School teaches you the bare basics of history to give you a guideline on it. It can’t teach you everything. The hope is that it instills curiosity enough for you to want to check your library for more information about it. Or if it’s a topic you want to go more in depth on, use it as the subject of a history report for class. That’s why school gives you those assignments: to let you explore something that hasn’t necessarily been spoon fed to you from the curriculum using the research methods you’ve been taught. So before you ask “why hasn’t this been taught to us in school?” Ask “why didn’t I go look this stuff up before?”

If you are looking for ideas, the small Canadian town of Bellview once elected a communist mayor.
They renamed the local park to “Lenin Park”, and they also were the reason the the federal government put in place new legislation to prevent cities and towns from creating their own holidays because they celebrated the anniversary of the Russian revolution instead of Armistice Day.
Steffen Bakken year was the only time in the civil war both sides said “that’s not cool”
What about Rob Ford? The crack mayor?
Live in Alberta and thats my favourite obscure Canadian story 💯

A good telling of the Mad Sam tale.
Thank you.
You should do a tale from the bottle about the Irish murderer Malcolm MacArthur who befriended the Attorney General while the investigation was going on ,‘‘tis a funny and interesting story 👌🏻
Sounds like a really interesting tale, hope he does a vid about it!
Gerry Adams what are you doing here aren’t you meant to be preparing for the troubles part 2 or something
How's the North getting on gerry?
Who the heckins is Gerry Adams?
I swear I thought I’ve watched all of the “tales from the bottle” but some how new ones continue to pop up in my recommendations and it’s always a good day
Same here...
You know he's pure evil that even the Mafia had to take him out
He was pure evil if all of this is even half true. Truly horrifying.
Yea the mafia isn't that bad, most of them are morally normal people who only have the mob mentality of ''turning off your mind'' when ever something like this happens.
Many people were whacked obviously and this guy was begging for it, completely out of his mind.
@@thirdhandlv4231 morally normal people...
Rrrrrrriiiiggggghhhhhhttttttt.
I love the historical context you put in your drawings -
" Chicago Shit Rag: Mad Sam Up To No Good Again." Your research is a real gift.
My dad lived outside of Chicago. I don't know the mafia members names, but they were found chopped up in a corn field not to far from where he lived as a kid. You can probably look it up though. He told me how he would see the mafia, and how they were usually nice especially toward the kids as long as you showed them respect. This video made me think of his story.
Fertiliser!
"They broke down as easily as a protestant's kneecaps" **inserts provo soldier**
Holy crap I lost it. Instant sub. Well done!
Fun fact- Joe Pesci's character in Casino is based on Tony Spilotro
Mike Knight yow.
Frank Vincent played hit man Frank Culotta, who lives in Vegas today
Spilotro another loose cannon
No doubt
Wait Pesci actually IS a name? Oh, don’t tell me Formaggio is too…
Super cool channel literally just found you while strolling around. Keep up the hard work it’s always awesome to hear this kind of history.
A bit more of a well known guy, but I reckon "Mad" Jack Churchill would be a good subject for a video. He's a guy known for, among other things, fighting in WW2 with a *claymore*. Not the mine, but the big ass Scottish sword.
He also shot and killed a man with a long bow.
Check out Count Dankula’s mad lads on him.
Generic User he’s also the solider with the last confirmed longbow kill in combat. And he used the bagpipes on D-Day.
Not really mad but a MadLad
The maddest lad.
Kinda reminds me of when I found out my great uncle operated on a Mafia leader in Italy and gave him a silver gun (I don't remember the type of gun but it was hella fancy) as a reward for saving his life. My dad got to shoot it in his garden when he was visiting as a kid.
That's interesting
And then you woke up.
@@magnex1990 What about this do you think is so farfetched that it just *has* to be false?
@@Gnome_Gnoson first thing: you think a person with such close relatives related to mobs would say this in such a way on UA-cam? Even if we're talking about 50 years ago can be a reason to die for. Second: his/her father family knew about this dangerous affiliation and still brings family and kids into this uncle's house and let his own son play in the garden and get randomly shot. If this isn't suspicious at all for you it means that you do not have much real life experiences about this kind of people. I was born and raised in Italy and this kind of scenario belongs more to movies and fictions than reality.
@@magnex1990 First thing: They didn't name any mafia leaders. They didn't name anyone, as a matter of fact. Alot of mafia leaders have been operated on, and it would be hard to go out of your way as a mafia member to find this comment, look through every mafia leader who has ever been operated on, in some unknown way point out one single person, and then find and kill this persons family for operating on someone 50 years ago. (also theres not really anyone to take revenge on by killing the family since the great uncle may or may not be dead) Second of all: I do kind of agree on this one, but its still a very small affiliation to have operated on a mafia boss once. But as i said i kind of agree on this one
“They broke down as easily as a Protestant’s kneecaps”
I’m laughing so hard
Funny since you look up how many IRA members were wasted by the SAS while trying to plant bombs.
No north
Muslims and Jews seem to get a hard time so it's heart-warming to see some proddy bashing for once lol
This is a great example of how far this channel has come to what we have now...this guy has really improved...I love "tales from the bottle"....I wish he could do a "headless valley" (nahanni) clip but the facts are too...unknown and mysterious.
"... they broke down as easily as a protestants knee caps" hahaha those IRA jokes never go stale.
Jokes?
@@sedme0 dude Ireland legalized gay marriage before the USA did
@@sedme0 You have issues, friend.
@@sedme0 But that's not how a democracy works. The idea of a unified church and state is ludicrous to me. I still can't start shipping away people who disagree with me on that. Or anything really. I don't want a thought police punishing people for their beliefs or ideas. As long as people obey the laws they are free to think whatever nonsense they want. You get me? We can't have labor camps for peaceful theologians whatever loony nonsense they teach about gods kingdom or whatever.
With the uncomfortable double negation in your comment, I'm not completely sure if you are pro separation or against it. You're pro, right?
@@slin2903 lmao right? I guess it’s funny

"This was the early 30's, cars ran on dinosaur farts and steadfast prayer. They broke down as easily as a protestant's kneecaps."
Best line.
I had to pause the video and take a minute after the Protestant's Kneecap line came out... it's difficult to watch a video when you're nearly crying with laughter
That was me and the Coor's Light comment. X-D
"Broke down as easy as a Protestant's kneecaps" I am now interested
I would LOVE more videos like this, animations of stories of infamous members of The Mob, The Cartels, The Yakuza, The Triads, Bikers gangs, etc.
That lifestyle apparently gets everybody. Mario DeStefeno died of a heart attack while awaiting retrial for the case he, Anthony and Sam were previously tried for and Anthony was later killed under mysterious circumstances.
This channel is such a great channel with all the jokes it makes while telling serious and intriguing stories
So glad I found your channel. Been binge watching them all night.

"Not like us irish they loved us over there" hahahahaha that's awesome! Loved that about protestant knee caps too hahahha
7:50 .... I didn't see it coming. But very tru...
I was wondering where qxir went when you uploaded this! Love your vids man always worth the wait!
I swear every other video alternates quieter and louder. Nice content tho 🤘🏻
Only until the end I realized Mario's mustache was not a frown of terror
Tony The Ant Spilotro was also the basis for Joe Pesci's psychotic character Nicky Santoro in Casino, and also met a similar fate in real life and the film, being too fucked up for the mob. Anyone who's seen the film will remember the torture scene, which IIRC almost got it an NC-17 rating before it was edited, and famously mentions "we even put icepicks in his balls".
LMAOOO the single mother joke got you a new subscriber😂 idk why but it cracked me up
2:28 Fun Fact: Tony 'The Ant' Spilotro is actually Joe Pesci's character in Casino but he was renamed to Nicky Santoro.

You should make more videos. They're my favorite. You and another Irishmen are my favorite UA-camr's. The other guys are a bit more serious, but yours are the hilarious ones and I love your animations. Honestly you could put out videos 24/7 and still wouldn't be enuf. I know it's a lot of work with animation and all but they really are awesome. But your narration is the best part. You could even do a few non-animated vids in between animated ones. Might make it a little easier to do a few extras. Sorry if I'm asking too much I just enjoy your vids. Thanks for your hard work you're awesome.
Cheers, buddy :)
@@Qxir ^^^ This ^^^ made my day lol
I mean it tho. Your narration could make a chicken repeatedly pecking on your living room window, what normally has the potential to be the most annoying thing ever and likely lead to the death of the chicken, entertaining.

Tony Spilotro served as the basis for the character Nicky Santoro in Casino (played by Joe Pesci).
My father met Tony Spilatro in the early--not long before he and his brother were killed and buried in a Kansas cornfield--in the 80s in Las Vegas. It was only a brief meeting, a handshake and quick introduction, but my father said he was terrified just being in the guy's presence. Spilatro was the guy the character of Nicky, Joe Pesci's character in "Casino", was based on. Robert DiNiro's character "Ace Rothstein" was based on a guy named "Lefty" Rosenthal, whom my father actually did business with on a couple of occasions, as he--my dad--was a banker, and in the 1980s Las Vegas, that meant you did business with casinos almost exclusively, which meant you did legitimate business with people who were various obviously mob-connected. But my father had no problem with Rosenthal or anyone else, because, according to my father, other than the occasional encounter with a psycho like Spilatro, it was just business, and everyone knew he was a straight businessman and had to be dealt with accordingly. And all a straight businessman had to do was stay straight, come through with what you say you're going to do, and be ready to talk to the FBI on a regular basis, which my father also did. And the IRS--they audited my parents regularly when we lived in Las Vegas.
Cool topic for a video: the story of how Thomas Fitzpatrick stole a plane and landed it in newyork city as a drunken dare on two separate occasions.
Great vid I love the animations
