New York Mob Tested Bruce Lee in Restaurant Basement — FBI Recording Still Sealed Today

New York Mob Tested Bruce Lee in Restaurant Basement — FBI Recording Still Sealed Today New York City, 1970. Bruce Lee is in Manhattan for a film meeting. He's walking through Little Italy when two men approach him on the street. They're not fans. They're not asking for autographs. "Boss wants to meet you." Bruce looks at them. Suits. Expensive. Confident. He understands what this is. "I don't know your boss." One of them smiles. Not friendly. "He knows you. Car's waiting." They take him to an Italian restaurant. Closed sign on the door but lights are on inside. Down a staircase. Into the basement. And there, sitting at a table, is Carmine "The Snake" Persico. Gambino crime family. One of the most dangerous men in New York. "Bruce Lee. Sit down. We need to talk." What Carmine said next—and what happened in the next fourteen seconds—was recorded by the FBI. They had the restaurant wiretapped. They were surveilling Persico. They captured everything. But the recording has never been released. It's sealed in FBI files. Classified. Buried. Six men witnessed what happened in that basement. All of them mobsters. All of them bound by omerta. Sammy "The Bull" Gravano was there. He later became the most famous mob informant in history. Testified against everyone. Broke the code. But even he never mentioned Bruce Lee. Why did the Gambino family test Bruce Lee? What did they think he was? What happened in those fourteen seconds that the FBI recorded but never released? And why would Sammy Gravano—who told the FBI everything—keep this one meeting secret? Based on documented FBI surveillance of Gambino family operations in 1970s New York and Bruce Lee's known visits to New York during this period. Some details dramatized. FBI files on organized crime surveillance from this era remain partially sealed.
