Bill is one hell of an artist and a bloody good impersonation of chow hayes
I grew up on the Central Coast & have always known Gosford Boys Home as Mt Penang Boys Home & spent close to a week there before being transferred to another home in Sydney.
When I was there, you were in a huge dorm room, similar to an army barracks. Your bed had to be made pretty much the same as a recruit would. There was no large fence to scale if you were going to do a runner but the "Store Boys" (Trustees) would run you down & the word was if they caught up with you, you copped a flogging.
That was back in the 80's, I can't imagine how brutal it would have been in Chow's days there. Thinking on that it's easy to see why those who ended up in institutions in the early days lost all respect for authority.
He's Australia's first gangster because he's regarded as the first in the Australian criminal underworld to always carry a gun. Back then in the 20s and 30s, Aussie gangsters usually carried razors. It is the gangster stereotype to carry guns.
This was already said in the video...
@@Redrum___+ I was proving a point to those that don't regard him as such.
Well presented
New here, just thought I would say this gangsta is just the same as anywhere else.
Whoever titled this should read a book on the founding of Australia.
Thank You
Never worked a day in his life. Stood over people to put money in his pocket. The book "Chow Hayes, Gangster" is well worth a read, even just to get a feel of Sydney during those days.
Sound like Alex Murdaugh
21:21 ...My dude trying to convince us a razor is a better weapon than a smg was just FUNNY.
How this dude made it all the way to the ripe old age of 82 is a miracle !
I always feel weird seeing horrible criminals who commit seriously atrocious crimes and murders who make it to a ripe old age such as 70-80+. I've always naturally felt like old people could have never committed horrible crimes then you find out they can and have and it literally shakes you to your core because it messes with how you view others.
intresting video!
His wife wasn't "squeaky clean" lol 😆 not if she knew about his crimes
How do you know someone's true blood Australian? ... 14:50 get them to say a number like "17" 🔥😅💪
Id say Ned Kelly myself but Im from UK and dont know too much about Australian history.
Ned Kelly was a bush ranger.
@@bravebeard6225 he was a gangster before gangster existed
This is going be fun 2 mins in and already a add
Get , add block plus
That's Rupert Murdock. Ice cold, no regrets, probably lived 100 yrs too
Interesting man for case study. An honest, no-beating -around-the-bush interview style.. I'd liked to have been an anthropologist who had interview sessions with him when he was in prison.
I'm really curious as to what some of these interviewers expect from a convicted murderer? To be remorseful? If they had a problem doing what they did then they wouldn't keep doing it. 🤷🏾😆
👏👏👏👏exactly- and talking about he was father less - my grandfather was back then 11 years old -he was a oldest , there was no man left in the whole family- he left town went to bigger city worked hard and slept in the street to just can bring little food for his mom and little kids his uncles were all gone so their kids was left hungry- when he got home with 3 kilos of bread - one of 5 years old just dies , from hunger - he cried - didn’t eat any bread - left again for hard labor - yes - just not having a father not going to make a criminal from a boy - or war - we have seen from those kids , the best guys i
Chow down..
Solid
Right now
Ship-loads of gangster convicts were the 1st
I pretty sure ned kelly was aussies first
There WAS money, people bought the book...follow the money and I bet Hickie got some
Faaaaahhhhhhhthaaaahhhh 🤣
In some countries ur wife cannot testify against u.
You have to be kidding right... the first criminal to be in Australia lol
I thought Ned Kelly was !
To be fair, there's money in his story and in the book and that's why we're all here... nigh on 40k views in a month. Will only get bigger. His family should get a piece methinks
Selfish so selfish for attention he did go ask them write about him
He loved it cause he was proud of it - what you people looking for , been sad cause he killed ? Look at what he was after been famous for criminal act
And the country gives his the title,, so he was happy and proud , and they looked for remorse?
Some times I think their writers and interviewers are the most clue less , 0 common sense....
Captain Cook and Co were the first gangsters. Got one of the biggest hauls ever known to man. Gold ,coal, led, copper,uranium, bauxite, Aluminium. Makes these blokes look like they own a hotdog stand at a nightclub.
Ludicrous
I don't think James Cook loaded uranium onto the Endeavour, somehow.
@@1969cmp no, but he drove them here. Bit like the driver in a bank robbery.
@@Watsupyoutube....he didn't even do that. He came, he saw and he snd his entire crew left. He even wrote nice things about Indigenous folk as a result of him camping and dining with them in FNQ.
@@1969cmp Members of the left don’t require facts
Not Australia’s first gangster 🙄🙄 if you don’t know the history, don’t pretend to…
If you’re worried about a misleading title then you’re going to really dislike CZcams. No disrespect intended, just stating fact as you are.
@@freethinker1378 agreed. Click bait. Best to ignore.
Who’s Australia’s first gangster?
Right cause you was in Australia in the 1950s shut the Phuck up and enjoy the show

They talk about him like he had no dad it was war so he become a killer
Let’s look back then how many kids were father less ? In the age 5 to 11 they went to work to bring a little bread for their families- let’s see what they trying to say ? This interviewer are clueless- if they want to give their own views fine - but oh pls don’t keep repeating he seen his dad like that he didn’t have father it was a war time so he became a killer!!! Just back then every kid was in that position
But they become hard worker building back families and cities- sure there are number of cold heartless criminals who wants to take and live that’s the choice of living and they know which direction they taking -
Scarry...mek my pantsy wet
Really? Get yourself together. HEEEX
Every woman loves a bad bot
1911 when Hayes was wearing nappies my Grandfather and his brothers as kids were chucking spuds embedded with razor blades and rusty nails at British soldiers. Gangsters, don't make me laugh.
So was my grandad..
Internet facts.
Chow Hayes, me arse.
Gangster's is a word for a organized criminal's, as for myself I've never been the type of female who is fascinated by these men,🤢 and dictator's serial killers they are the opposite to me,🤮 I'm attracted to the humble person who is like my dad who is now rare as hen's teeth 😢😓 who was apart of the greatest generation that pulled themselves up by the bootstrap and made something of themselves up, and was a WW 2 veteran as well, I miss that person very much,my dad was a real man who cried and didn't need no stinking man card.
👍👏🙏🙏🙏god bless his soul
Yes they didn’t have father so they become the best of best .
Back then hardly there was a kid with father - our grandfather’s experience that !!!father less but they become the best strong man , they had nothing as a kid , but they changed for better - and some a few , they were takers, killers , selfish,
Gotta love a Irish man.
Chow Hayes was first gangster
No way the first criminal gangster was captain cook in Australia
Troll or moron?
The universe will cover you if you kill in self defence but if you kill for any other reason you automatically forfeit your eternal rewards, believe it or not idgaf
