even his lips are undercover

There's gotta be someone who was in the mob that's watching this like "hey isn't that paul?"

I never clicked this thinking this man would say “I love Golden Retrievers”

This man is the most FBI FBI agent that has ever FBI’d.

Currently he is undercover as Chancellor of the German Empire

This guy really does look like he could be either REALLY italian, REALLY russian, or REALLY mexican.

This guy is the real deal. He was undercover as a Mythbuster for years.

With a great mustache comes great responsibility

He’s currently undercover trying to penetrate the monopoly cartel

Currently he is undercover as the Lorax trying to stop the Truffula tree trade

This dude's actually brilliant. Any criminal would look at him and be like there's no way the guy that looks like a stereotypical fbi agent is actually an undercover fbi agent

Every mob boss is calling for a surprise sock inspection right now

If the Monopoly man followed his passion

This guy has the ultimate poker face. His eyes and eyebrows never move.

"There's a 5 step training process. Preparation, preparation, preparation, preparation...." "and preparation?" "and go do it." "Dammit"

“Wow you’re really knowledgeable about dirt, do you garden a lot or something?” “No, I went to dirt school actually”

His cover is impeccable, I'd have never guessed he was actually iron chancellor otto von bismark

He looks like he speaks for the trees

"That's not real. Law enforcement can't initiate violence." LOL

"Theres a lot to know about dirt" Me: Laughs in civil engineering

When he made an arrest he should have said "Go directly to jail, Do not pass go, Do not collect $200".

This dude out here looking like the emperor of Austria-Hungary

I like to imagine a bunch of crime bosses just spit out their coffee when they watched this

This man looks like he’s seen more things than 20th century historians

He's not saying where Jimmy Hoffa really is, because he's hiding him in his mustache.

"I disarmed him with ... uh ... the humor" - delivered in the most monotone voice xD

"The key to being undercover is you can't act stiff" says literally the stiffest guy I've ever seen in my life

I was half expecting this guy to peel his face off at the end of the video and reveal that he was disguised the entire time

It's real life Captain Holt. "I disarmed him... with humour" - in a robot voice

"If I was Pablo Escobar, I never would have been around the airport that day" *smile for the first time during the video* Plot twist: he is Escobar undercover for all these years.

This guy is totally badass!!! "Yeah I was undercover with the mob"... Good god man you're cool!! His insights are so enthralling. I wanna hear more!

“Believe me, theres a lot to know about dirt” 😂

"I will not give up any trade secrets that would lead Hedgehogs to the Chaos Emeralds."

Bribing the dirt inspector is the most disappointing crime I’ve heard of lol

I love this dudes face when he says he's seen it get heated to almost a fight so he was gonna leave it alone lol.... He's seen a fight lol.

Psh, dirt school? Any farmer knows -- it's SOIL. This guy must be... ... a plant. Im so sorry

Oh he's a retired FBI special agent? I thought he was a railroad executive in an wild west movie.

Somewhere in the world there must be a mob member who's being like "Hey, isn't that Viktor?" Edit : Thank you all for the 1k likes!

It’s incredibly impressive that Donnie Brasco went to jewelry school on his own, and this guy actually went to “dirt school”

this guy's voice is so low and slow, but he speaks so well and engaging that you can't help to be kept engaged.

"I had to go to dirt school.... To learn about dirt. And believe me there's a lot to learn about dirt that I didn't know until I went to dirt school. But once I went, and it was an organized crime case, I was able to talk dirt to the bad guys. " So many questions. So many potential puns.

Hes' got everyone fooled. He's actually the coffee cup throwing his voice.

Currently he's undercover in a commercial to tell you about Diabeetus

If he was born 150 years ago, he Looks like would have hunted outlaws with working at the Pinkerton office.

Currently he is undercover as a retired FBI special agent

No way this dude actually looks like this in real life. Didn't anyone watch the Wired channel, they disguise everyone like this guy.

Stuff like this is literally the most intriguing videos ever. I love hearing the inner workings of this or drug dealing or robbing banks. This is the good part of the internet

This dude has his whole life written on his face.

He has 6 identities and they all love Golden Retrievers.

Imagine going to prison for bribing a dirt inspector that turned out to be a fed

Don't let his baby face fool you; this guy means business.

It looks like as if he's still wearing that MOUSTACHE as part of his COVER

7:23 "I had to go to dirt school and believe me: there is a lot to learn about dirt." Well thats the undercover glory! Youre learning valuable things!

This is the what happened to the old time strong men who lifted the round barbells.. and wore the leopard print tights with one shoulder strap..

Sopranos was a Legendary series....and Furio Guinta was the best character of all. He truly had the makings of a varsity athlete; was the strong, silent type; and also so helpful - There's a bee onna yo 'at!

I bet even Adam Savage did not realize Jamie was an undercover FBI agent all these years.

Im convinced his mustache is growing him, not the other way around.

Can we talk about how this guy has the coolest face ever straight out of a book

He has a constant disappointed dad look

You can't just grow a giant mustache and claim you're "undercover". It only covers a portion of your face.

"Are you an FBI agent?!" "Oh yeah, sure. I'm J. Edgar Hoover." You know there's something so incredible about real-life cops vs. robbers stories. I love it. This guy is awesome.

I feel like if I could peek under his moustache I would be privy to the meaning of life

“For as long as I can remember, I always wanted to be a walrus...”

I need a video of Michael Franzese and him meeting and having a chat about the 'good old mob days'

Ok, was anybody going to tell me that Dirt School exists, or was I just supposed to find that out for myself?

The only man whose mustache can rival Jamie Hyneman's.

He uses the same coffee maker as James Bond uses in the actual books. Lol

He looks like he is still undercover and has an old-man face on.

He looks like a dragon quest character

Feddy McEyebags: "Risk is not worth the reward and crime does not pay" Vanity Fair: interviews @LarryLawton

Me watching this video My FBI agent: “anyways so-“

This is the guy that killed me in Red Dead 2

That man's death stare would make me confess to anything

I wondered what the Monopoly Man looked like without his hat

What he lacks in sleeve , he makes up for in mustache

They did actually make a movie about the guy that was one of Escobar's main pilots, one of the wildest true stories in our modern history, called American Made. He was a former airline pilot that made contact with a CIA officer who made arrangements for him to smuggle weapons to the contra fighters in south america. The planes where designed to haul as many weapons as possible anyway on the way down there, so the plane was just empty on the way back, so Escobar's people got into contact with him and he started hauling coke back across the border on each and every trip he went out there for the CIA. I don't think Pablo was there on the first day, but that guy did actually meet Pablo Escobar in person and was invited to a number of festive occasions by him personally. The real messed up thing is, the CIA eventually found out about it and intentionally turned a blind eye to it until the administration changed, and then they burned his cover which eventually resulted in his death.

I'm guessing he's wearing a disguise. Bald cap, fake moustache, and so on.

I think he was actually undercover at that moment 😂

I like how he says he's not going to devolve to the tradecraft kind of basically devoting a bunch of tradecraft

Agent McGowan spent the majority of his career working undercover in Prussia as Otto von Bismarck.

“...and I had to go to dirt school, to learn about dirt.” LMAO. Why is that sentence so funny to meees.

Man, This was a really good one, Thank You so much Vanity Fair. Ive been binge watching these for a while LOL

Wait, in true detective Rist wasn’t acting officially as an undercover agent, he had gone rogue.

"This is Mike McGowan." False, this is Wilford Brimley, and he'd like to talk to you for a few minutes about diabeetus.

This guy is sooooo badass and cool but he also looks like Hercule Poirot. I could listen to his stories forever.

This is honestly so fascinating, thanks for the video :)

Agent: I won’t give out any information that will jeopardize my agents and put them in harms way. Also Agent: I train my agents to go into bars and find targets information Criminals: Okay, don’t go into bars. Got it 👍

Give him a bowler hat and he's a Pinkerton.

I feel like this man could create a standup comedy routine around accurately recounting his police experiences Dirt school

This man's mustache is legendary

that guy has done things in his life that we dont even think about would happen, you can see it in his face.

I need this guy to do a collab with the mob guy that's been all over KZfaq recently

who else wants to see him and Larry the former jewel thief in the same room?

Wait a minute this guy looks like the guy that does my landscaping.

Came for the moustache, stayed for the moustache.

spy hack: wear a moustache that covers your lips so they can't read em on tapes

The cement shoes thing became so popular because there was one real life case recorded, however, the victim would have most likely been killed prior, and was used more as a body disposal method, to ensure it will stay on the bottom of a lake/river, rather than wash up wherever and be found by authorities.

WTF! BISMARCK 🤯 he left his pointy cap in his house 🤣

This was the absolute best FBI recruitment tool of the last 30 years. Change my mind.

Interesting hearing him talk about how he enjoyed his time with the criminals just drinking, playing cards etc. makes you wonder if he ever regrets turning them in or whatever.
