Al Capone's Party Boat Discovered | Sitdown with Michael Franzese

The legend of Al Capone lives on. As one of the most notorious gangsters in American history, his story continues to capture the public's imagination. But what if I told you that the story of Al Capone just got even more intriguing? Recently, a 200-foot boat shipwreck believed to be owned by Capone himself was discovered by divers in Michigan. This two-story floating speakeasy, built in 1889, offers a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle of one of America's most infamous mobsters. Don't miss this very interesting video. #AlCapone #Speakeasy #Discovery #OrganizedCrime

Is it just me or does Michael just keep getting better at this.. 🤔

[DigitalDuelist]

My dad was a part of the life in Vegas through the golden years. It's great hearing these stories and putting it together with what tidbits I got from him when I was young.

[darkgxthLIVE]

it’s not like mike simply recounts historical facts, he goes into detail and recounts personal experiences and connections to the point of the video. Very informative and great vid!!!! 🔥

I love how you worded the whole thing about history. My dad grew up in Chicago and had friendships with guys like Accardo, and Giancana. He never supported that life nor was a part of it. And from the stories he told me, I can't either. But I still take pride knowing he got to experience such a big part of history up close.

[swimp_stew_pawpaw]

Let's face it Michael...you are part of history.

[SanguisMorthis]

Cancel culture is one of the most dangerous things in our age. Its completely insane to me that people think they can just "cancel" something you dont like...its not going to just go away. We need history to learn and to grow. Im always happy to listen to the stories and opinions of you Michael. Its good to have people with some presence to remind us to remember.

I met Michael back in August in Milton Keynes when he came to the UK on his tour last year, what a lovely guy really down to earth he made time for everybody big respect for him, always producing first class articulate content such fascinating stories put together brilliantly what an interesting life. Having SiciIian roots on my Mother's side of the family I've always held an interst like many, into the mob life because it's such a different contrast of world to what most people know, it's great to hear Michael's stories first hand which he expresses so well. I have to say Michael looks absolutely fantastic for a 71 year old gentleman. I hope to see him come back to the UK at some point he's a great guy, very humble it was such pleasure to meet him at the event, being in his company having been following Michael for quite some time now was fantastic, great to finally see the 1M subs, congratulations Michael if you read this on your milestone keep doing what your doing 👌 🥂

I remember when I was a kid Geraldo Rivera opened Capone's vault (maybe even on live TV )...& found nothing. This was quite a while ago & yet he's still such an important part of pop culture. There's not many men you can say that about.

[jamescameron]

Capone was a legend. Good or bad it's rare someone comes along and makes a impact on the scale he did.

[topdog]

He made a wave big enough to ride until this day.
Good, bad or indifferent, Al was larger than life💯

[emanuell]

Michael, today you left me speechless. What a wonderful human being you are. G‘d bless. I agree with everything you said, and I do think about the world a lot

[godquest]

Yes it is unbelievable Al Capone still lives on in the news. This guy really knew how to build public opinion for him and perhaps he had more humanitarian character about him than we really know. A good example that is the soup kitchensthat he opened up to help the unfortunate people during the great depression. A floating speakeasy? Wow miracles never cease. Good stuff Michael keep it coming!

[AMETHYST]

History should not be erased or rewritten in order to cover up inconvenient truths. Without history, good and bad, we will have learned nothing from the mistakes of the past. And when we learn nothing from history, we are doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past. Plain and simple. Thanks for this video, Mr. Franzese!

[loganstabb]

I love hearing this man talk. I feel like I gain so much knowledge just listening to the words he says. Thank you Mr Franzese.

[MrPaolo]

We have to learn from our history, not ‘erase’ it. Wise words indeed.
Thankyou for being a ‘standup guy’.

[kalena]

Thank you, Michael for always speaking the truth. God bless you and yours!

[rickhmason]

Al Capone had a long history with the city of Lansing, Michigan. He was fond of a long time Italian restaurant called Emil's which is now closed. He preferred a certain table and if anyone was occupying it they were moved to a different table when he arrived. He also had a cottage on Round Lake North of Lansing.

[dougprescotti]

It never ceases to amaze me . Another great video. Thanks brother!

[josephbutcher-coxk]

My Grandfather was a British Mafia Boss back in the 1920s he was a Major Loan Sharker...he told my dad about how he moved to America and became a loan shark person for Al Capone. My dad grew up with Al Capone Jr. 💯

Rick from pawn stars would offer 50 bucks for it, but only after he got his buddy down there who's an expert on party boats owned by Al Capone
