I judged this guy too quick....he grows on you. Keep the vids coming

First day in I got screwed over on a bag of coffee for 2 squares, I didn't even realise what I had done letting those guys get away with it. I'm 5'5" Asian and these are 2 6'2" tatted black men with golds. Next day all there boys came to take my whites. Old head gave me a knod that told me this will be your whole bid if you don't do something. I fought 3 giant men, got my ass whooped. Next day I had 3 new sets of whites, a cap of tobacco and a bag of coffee from the same set that came at me. Good video

30 secs fighting feels like an eternity!

Can concur with this man, he speaks the absolute truth. Did my 7 years inside a Medium Facility, and I can guarantee everyone will lose a fight. It happens. Period. But what you do after the fight is almost more important than the fight itself. You either fight or get beat, there is nothing else you can do. I have taken many ass whoopings in prison. Too many to count, and I have also won a few in there too. But the real point is that the inmates see you ain't a pussy, and will not be an easy target. Still end of the day, no matter what you do in Prison, an ass whoopin ain't but a few feet away I used to say. Good Videos Bro! Keeping it 100%

Lolol, Itachi Uchiha is an anime character but it's awesome hearing you say it

After joining a crip gang in late 1970's, it was just a matter of time before I would get locked up. 1992 I caught a robbery and was locked up for the first time in my life at age 23. Los Angeles county jail wasn't so bad after I learned the ropes. I kept my mouth closed, I didn't butt in to others conversations, I didn't touch anything that didn't belong to me.... after about 10 months I was sentenced and headed out to prison. I was scared AF but couldn't show it. I tried to apply the same principle from county to prison and it worked for awhile with no major issues. Until one day a rival gang member tried me up, dude was A LOT bigger than I was and I backed down....WORST MISTAKE I MADE IN PRISON. next day on the yard different dude came up to me and... Next thing you know I'm getting my ass whipped by about 8 guys.... My eyes swole shut, nose busted, both lips busted, I was pretty banged up..... Coming in off the yard, the police pulled me over and asked me what happened.... I told him I fell. All the while those guys were starring at me hard.... The cop asked again and I said the same thing. More cops / guards came over and looked me over and asked if I wanted to leave the block.... I replied it was my fault I fell.... I'll be more careful next time I'm on the yard. I was threatened with time in the hole and still said nothing about what really happened to me. I went in, cleaned up, laid down and next thing you know... One of the dudes came in and asked me if I was cool.... I said yeah, I'm straight.... I did about a year on that block, and next time I was tried, I did exactly what this dude said, swing first, swing hard, and don't stop swinging until the guards come or it's finished.... Some time later, I caught a possession with intent to sell cocaine.... I took a 5 year plea and this time I knew exactly what to expect..... After about a week or so I was tried and I just fired off on the dude, I went to hole for 14 days I think, maybe 30 , I can't remember because I went to the hole quite a bit on second trip.... but after coming out the hole I had no problems for a long while.... So my point is that to survive in prison... 1. Be respectful to everyone 2. Don't brag about how tough you are or were on the streets. 3. Don't touch anything that's not yours 4. Don't accept anything from anyone, because it will cost you, and some time it will cost what you're not willing to pay. 5. If you're a gang member.... Get ready to prove it..... 6. Mind your own business 7. Never, ever for the love of all that is sacred and holy, never snitch on anyone about anything.

Punking out of fights since Jr high will be one of my regrets on my death bed. I often make an excuse that it's "stupid" to fight and the "trouble isn't worth it". But in my heart I know I should do it, win or lose.

I had a long beard in jail. When I got jumped but fought back I got respect they were like "Taliban throwing them hands" lmao

Lockdown 23 and 1 it's good to see a brother come home and change their life. I don't know you but it seems that you are trying to do the rite thing. Good luck on your journey of success. It's also dope how you talk about your situation without glorifying it.

Hey man, I just viewed a 23and1 mini marathon and learned a lot. I am facing some time in jail and possibly prison and feel I learned some good stuff especially the fighting parts. I am 54 years old and can count on one hand how many fights I have had over the years. My biggest fear is getting my ass kicked but at least if I do I learned that I can save face by getting my ass kicked with pride. Anyway, thanks for the videos and keep it up... Scott

This is some real shit Josh. You tell it how it is fo sho. Youre helping a lot of people, teachin a lot about life on the inside and how to survive in there. Youve defnitley been through a lot homie. Thank you for sharing your stories with us man. Your word holds a lot of weight. When you say something, we know you know what youre talkin about. The other Prison Shows suck when compared to this one. Lockdown 23 and 1 for life!!

This is Jacob from 60DI. I really enjoy your insight on prison topics from personal experiences. I think it's a very good thing that you do with your channel that does help a lot of individuals and even outsiders understand more of what goes on inside of a correctional facility. Anywho, I would enjoy writing you at some point to your P.O. Box. Thanks for the interesting channel. Take care!

Lol "I fought hard for 40 seconds" I'm a smoker too and I can relate to that for sure. Just makes me keep in mind that I have to finish the fight as quick as I can.

Dude. One day this channel is going to explode. And when it does, remember I said it would.

This is so crazy I just came across deaths channel about a week ago so I’ve been watching all his videos but in this video he just reached 3k subscribers now he has more then 500k subscribers really goes to show where you can go if you have faith in yourself and don’t quit proud of you man

I did 7 years in brickeys AR. This is some sound advice man, good looking out for youngin's.

This dudes hustle is inspiring. Great guy great content. Respect josh stay true

The most respected guy on KZfaq in relation to Jail/Prison info no DOUBT!!!! GO JOSH❤

"Teeth are like bones" Quote of the day

Big RESPECT to you bro for ALL of your experience and advice... I KNOW you’ve help at least someone who’s been checking you out. I know I got some laughs and sound knowledge 💯

This man said" maybe some missing teeth. Now I know that sounds extreme" 😂 you're got damn right that sounds extreme . This shit ain't for everybody.

My first time getting locked up at 18 dude came at me over food. Him and 2 other guys jumped me. I fought back and didn't say shit to the cops. Next day same dude came up to me and threw me some coffee and noodles and I didn't get bothered with again after that

Idk why ur videos are coming up in my recommendations I guess my time is coming

hahaha ITACHI UCHIHA is the name of one of the greatest anime characters ever. One of the strongest from the uchiha clan great backstory

Realest, humblest prison story teller on youtube..

This is a great throwback. Brother Death is over 600k now and still putting up bangers every day.

Great topic man, and I love these videos. Real recognize real rap and I enjoy watching these. I got cocky from winning my first wreck easy and a week later tried fighting two dudes coming back from rec yard not knowing one of them was a damn ninja or some crap and got my ass beat but I swear on everything I got more respect for losing that fight then I did for winning the first one.

My cousin did 5 years in a Florida state prison. He told me. the prison he was at if you showed you weren't afraid to fight even if you knew you were gonna get your ass kicked 8 times out of 10 the other guy would back don't because he didn't wanna risk going to the hole for 30 days.

I found you on accident and so glad I did. Love your content man. Keep it coming!

Love this channel man. You seem like a real, humble ,human being respect too you and the time you served brother💯💯💯

Courts tried to slam me today lol just got released 1hr ago lol

23k you blowing up big bro . you keep it 100 nothing less and people can see that thats why they rockin wit you. keep it up

Man, your videos are SO good. Never been to jail/prison which is insane as I spent alot of years doing and acting like a total dumbass but it's good to hear this stuff just in case. What I really appreciate listening to you is you seem like a pretty humble guy whose ego is in check so your words come across as truth.

Similar advice for school honestly. Why I hate zero tolerance policies at school. You're one of the best people to talk about this. You're actually cooler than I thought you were.

Hey I have a question. Have you ever seen someone toughen up over time? Like, they start off scared and can't fight but after they fight a few times they slowly get more confident until it changes them?

Dude you channel is very entertaining. And I learn alot good info, keep up the good work.

Brother You are a savior to some who don't have a mentor or just numb to what they don't know and can't research what you put across beautifully from your firsthand experience rooted from your heart. Don't stop giving your wisdom. You would have been for me in 1999 when looking for someone like yourself for advice for months whilst on bail in the UK ( not so tuff doing 'bird' here) not my judge given

Crazy how you're talking about 3k and now you're pushing for 150k! Keep it up!

I don't know why I've been watching these videos, I feel like something is telling me that I'll be going to prison soon and my mind is prepping for it

Bro I watched your videos years back I hope your well you came a long way man

There is always a bigger badder wolf i learned that with my brothers while i was in the US Army

You are cracking me up man. Something about your delivery and personality. I wish you much success, looks like you are well on your way.

man when u help people out with your wisdom and experience its great, great attitude for the channel as well.

Ok... What if you win a fight? Should you gloat? Walk away? Help the guy up? Should you try to patch things up with him so he doesn't come back for revenge later? Or solidify your position of dominance by yelling at him never to try that again? Do you need to worry about his crew coming after you? What if you know it was just a lucky shot? Then you would definitely want to patch things up, right? Or do you double down and act like you're above him now?

Jail is just all about pecking order. You don't wanna be on the bottom of the food chain.

Love how far this guy has come... 3000 now 600k. Congrats bro! And thanks

Recording this video says 3k and your at 11.6k. I accidentally found this channel but a coworker had a brother who was in prison 8.5 years. Met him recently, You and him both seem like the most generous people. Learning a lot. Keep up the good work.

"teeth are like bones" teeth ARE bones, lol

I’m 34 and have never got in a fight except in 2nd damn grade and 6th grade we would get jumped in the bathroom. I’ve always tried to keep to my self and not make enemies. But if it came to it in prison guess wouldn’t have any other choice

Dang man!! I just watched this video and now you have over 362,000 subscribers, one of which is ME. Cool stuff man. Congratulations. I did a little time in jail and it went alright. But it would have been cool to watch some of these videos before that happened. Peace brother.

Enjoyed a few of your vids so far. You're very good at telling stories. Subscribed and will keep watching!

Damn went from 3k to 37k in less than 2 months??? Good job homie

Do not talk just swing - faster the better!

I'm about to go in for a state fail felony. Not prison but I heard it's like baby prison. I've never done time expect for juvenile. You're videos help calm some anxiety I have . Appreciate ya .

This dude, is very likeable... easy to hear out.. I know most of this edecuit, from the streets alone.. I've never done hard time. But, I have been a weekend warrior, plenty times. Lol.. had people fuck with me, but I stood my ground like I would anywhere else. 9 times out of 10.. no swings, just words.. good post bro. Keep grinding. Always, turn your negatives, in to positives! 👊👍

Yow bro u got some dope video look forward to a video from u each day keep up the good work 👌👍

I havent been to jail. It's great to hear you helping everyone, but I would like to hear how your life is now. How hard or easy was it to transition from jail to the world?

Come on KZfaq. Monetize these videos. This guy is for real and of great help to many when it comes to surviving the prison experience

I truly thought this was going to be a wanna be “after prison show”, now that I’m here you have your own comedy, your own views and you’re your own person and I truly deserve that his audience should watch you as well, you’re doing great!

I just found you and subscribed. You have great content and is a legit learning experience.

i had the same shit happen to me. same tooth too. i just pushed it back in place and good to go.lol.

I’m a new subscriber to the channel and I love it! I’ve noticed a lot of people in the comments section putting Joe from APS down to compare him to Death or bring this guy up. They are two different youtubers with two different approaches to explaining their experiences from prison and educating others. I don’t think it’s necessary to put one person down to compliment the other and a variety of perspectives is good. Honestly they both add value to the online community, people are entitled to their preference but remember, different doesn’t mean better or worse. It means different. Props!

It's never about winning or losing it doesn't matter all that matters is that you followed through with what you said and stood your ground that is all that matters

Damn bro, love your content. Just found your page yesterday and havent stopped watching... I have court coming up in a few weeks, lookin at 3-5. Never been to prison before. County in and out, small time shit you know. Ain’t gonna lie though, got me stressin a little. Been watching your vids like my new bible lol appreciate the content like no other man.

Watching all your videos bro👌

Damn. The fact that you got 60k subscribers in 4 months is insane. I’ve never seen a channel grow that quick. Congrats.

You The Truth.....Appreciate All You Do Fam....Highly Respected.....Warrior Saint

I'm gonna send you some art work homie. Everytime I walked in a cell that was the first thing I did was hit dudes up for their family photos and started hooking it up. Dude's went crazy over that shit. Wasn't even my hustle, I did it out of love.

U got 13k subs in less than a month playa,, that's cool..I dig the channel, watched all these dam videos in jus a few days hahahah NERD FAN,, but hey , they entertaining

Glad you know why I subscribed. not so much skillsets, but philanthrop, and mission statements getten across to foes. not crumming lecture 231 Sir, but taking in for honest use in heated situations. I need it a lot in the streets too. as I am a hermit from writing poetry, and fail to check inn with gangsters here in philly, and I don't get to travel either.

I'm in my late 40's and got in some trouble in my 20's but never been in prison or want to be. I find your videos entertaining and informative you sir have a new subscriber !!!

7:35 sounds like healing just like in Far Cry 3

Any shirts that are long sleeve types like ones in these videos? BLACK AN WHITE I would rock for sure, probably gunna Copp one actually here next couple days

It's great you found something that can help others while (hopefully) making a decent living. Enjoy.

Heck yeah I would write. You are down to earth and always up to sending some artwork or whatever your way. Always love listening to you

Great videos bro. Estonian prisons are way different to US prisons. Most dudes are runnin solo or with homies they get to know in the prison. Unless you bang with the Russians then you with the shits. No real gang war shit just some dudes tryna do their time.

"HEEEEEEEELP!!!!!"

Damn brother, look how far you've come. 5 years ago talking about being excited to have 3k subscribers, to 750k today.

:26 it’s actually pronounced “ee-tah-chee oo-chee-hah”… love the fact you tried, death! He is one of my favorite character I an anime and manga called “Naruto”! Much love bra! Keep on keeping on, brother! Much love from Hawai’i

You should react to the show 60 days in

Real talk on my first day a black dude not all that big about my size 6 foot 180 to 220. But he came up as I was putting my stuff in my box an told me "white boys have to pay draft to live here" so I hit him as hard as I could an didn't stop till his boys jumped on me. They beat the shit out of me broke my nose an put a cut under my eye about an inch long. Ducked one time for over a week till I healed funny thing was dude an his boys gave me food cuz I could not got to chow. But know one else really messed with me after that. Only one other time did someone try me about a gambling debet he owed me cuz I ran a poker game cuz I got 160$ a week in store so I put a 35$ hit on dude cuz I didn't want to mess up my hustle .

All through life you’ll find people whose bark is worse than their bite. It’s usually the quiet ones you have to watch out for. Inside prison and out.

I respect you so much. I spent time in a county jail. You speak the truth. Carry on brother.

my big bro got stabbed and still beat the dude down in our county when we got our charge i was in the pod over from him

Damn you exploded the last couple months

I’m usually a good judge of character, that being said you seem genuine and give good practical advice for people who are approaching a sentencing date. Keep it up.

great candor bro, east to tell you are genuine and well spoken

Yea I’d rock that t-shirt

Hey Convict what the diffrent between Prison and jail? Thx !you are Real

Solid advice bro.

3k subs God damn you've come a long way! Definitely deserve it, love your videos

You oughta be teaching ppl how not to go to prison

I disagree with saying "aight alright" when you losing because to some that means its like a go ahead to go even harder at you since you're submitting and won't fight back. If you get jumped swing at the nearest guy and try and hold onto him. Reason why is that guys will have a harder time trying to swing at you for fear of hitting their boy. If your rolling on the floor with the other guy vs squaring up then you can protect yourself more from direct hits. Eventually they gonna break up the fight. If you cant grab onto them then yea ball up but as soon as they stop and walk away get up and swing at the nearest one. Crazy as it sounds most guys will be way more cautious to fight you if you just got up still wanting to fight. Also talk mad shit out loud about how jumping is a bitch move etc...you'll get more respect for that because welp jumping is a bitch move lol

I'm soo happy that you got ur life back and turn it into something good. Congrats to ur house 🏚!!!

3,000 subscribers rn! Great job and I wish you the best for the future.

Is race and gangs important in prison

Itachi uchiha hahah

Bro i have been locked up over half my adult life and i watched one of your videos for the first time yesterday and homie i have now watched 6 or so. Keep it up and yes i would rock one or 2 of your tees.

I've watched tons and tons of your videos and still have only scratched the surface but I have noticed 1 thing you have a fascination with "ghost in the shell"
