I have to admit that I was surprised that Joe Pesci played such a tough guy in Goodfellas but now that I am actually more knowledgeable about the real-life mob - most of the feared guys were of similar physical stature.... Galante, Gravano, Casso, Amuso, Pitera, Scarfo......

Inspired casting.

I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.
