2021 has been a rough year for most and I hope you're all doing okay. Especially my regular
viewers — and most of all my subscribers. You've been wonderful to me this year
watching, liking, subscribing, and leaving me solid comments and suggestions. I give my thanks
to everyone who did any of those things this year for me, and for other YouTube creators as
well. But look I'm more into the malts than the schmaltz, though, so let's get down to business
Let me tell you about it. The Mob Reporter here to reveal the Top 10 Most-Watched videos among
all the episodes I posted in 2021. And if I have time and if there's interest, I'll post
a follow-up video revealing my LEAST watched videos of the year. There were some surprises
there. In fact, in compiling my year-end data I had a few surprises myself. I've posted 50 videos so
far this year and by New Year's Eve there should be a few more — that'll work out to be an average
of one a week or more. Not bad for a side hustle for a busy guy. But which did you watch the most?
At number 10, the 10th most-watched video in 2021 that was released on The Mob Reporter
channel this year is.. "Insider tour of a bikers meth lab." This story features great, detailed
video footage from inside a large clandestine — and incredibly messy — methamphetamine lab in Australia
with the story of its demise. At number nine: "Mafia case crumbles, boss freed, gets his millions back"
This video documents how police in Canada screwed up one of the country's biggest anti-Mafia cases
It's an important story, but boy did it ever piss off a lot of my police contacts. I got angry emails
and texts, but that's the price I have to pay for telling it like it is. They win some, they lose some
At number eight: "Crazy money laundering in casinos by alleged gangsters"
Now the surveillance footage here of massive money laundering from inside the casino blew me away
and I'm glad you guys loved it too
At number seven: "Marco sub being built in tiny town." I love me some narco-sub action and apparently
so do you. This video out of Spain shows that country's growing role as a gangland gateway
At number six: "Air force shoots down narco plane; corrupt air traffic controllers"
Colombia is incredibly important in organized crime as it's the leading source for cocaine
This video dramatically captures how that country is struggling to deal with it in sometimes
alarming ways. Moving into the top five now we have: "Gangster's secret drug lab in the middle of nowhere"
This video tells of a large and sophisticated drug lab that was set up far from prying eyes in
a remote part of Australia, where they were doing strange alchemy — reconstituting liquid cocaine
At number four: "Crime families at war; luxurious police raid." It's another hit out of Australia, this
video documenting the ongoing feud between two prominent and energetic crime families the Hamzy
and the Alameddine clans. The fact that bodies kept falling kept this video bouncing up the charts
At number three: "Insider tells of Mafia hits"
I'm happy this video was so well received. It features exclusive insider interviews I did with
the hitman's driver and it shows new shocking video footage of important Mafia hits in Canada
and the sneaky way police investigate them
We're near the top now, at number two: "Capturing the world's most wanted kingpin — Tse Chi Lop"
I really like how this video turned out. It was one of my most ambitious, creatively, as I continue to
learn how to make videos and I'm glad so many people are watching it. It's a remarkable case
so don't miss out — please give it a watch
And now, my top video of 2021, based on your views. It's one I thought might be there
when I was putting it together. It's: "Perfect million dollar heist ruined by stupid mistakes"
This video was a great blend of humor and seriousness, featuring remarkable footage of a huge
cash heist that went horribly, horribly wrong. Keep its momentum going and watch it again! Now, which
ones did you find most memorable? Which were your favorites? Let me know in the comments down below
I'll put links to all of them in the description so you can watch them again, or for the first time
So thank you for spending so much time on my channel and watching my videos and giving me
feedback. It's very much appreciated. And watch this space between now and New Year's for more content
I'm not packing it in for the holidays yet . And let's hope 2022 is better for all of us
Thanks for watching
