Revealing mistake: When Tony collapses in his back garden, and the barbecue grill explodes, some coals (supposedly thrown into the air by the explosion) land next to Tony's body. Watch this moment closely however and you can see that the coals come into shot from left of the screen and not above from the air as they should. Obviously thrown in by a nearby crew member, just off-screen. (00:19:48)

Continuity mistake: During the scene in the office of Bada Bing, Pauli, Christopher, Tony, Silvio and Pussy are all together and the TV is on. Pussy is reading something and Christopher is lifting weights. In between shots, the weights change from Chris's right arm to his left and back again. It could be argued that he changes arms when the camera is off him, but there is one instance where it definitely happens too quickly for this to be the case.

Continuity mistake: When Tony shows up at Livia's house with a bouquet of flowers, in the exterior shot note the transparency of the screen door's glass, the front door silver-color knob with its back plate, as well as the deadbolt cylinder. As Tony enters the doorway in the next interior shot, we cannot see out through the screen door's glass, the door knob is gold-color, and both the knob's back plate and the deadbolt cylinder have vanished.
Visible crew/equipment: Livia tells Tony that Junior was looking for him and that he sounded agitated. It then cuts to a long shot of Satriale's, and at the right side of the screen, we can see the reflection of the boom operator holding up the boom pole/mic.

Answer: If you're asking how the FBI, or anyone else, faked his suicide, in the show Eugene actually committed suicide and did not fake his death. If you're asking how, in real life, they were able to make it look like actor Robert Funaro was hung, it would have been no different than any other hanging stunt. A rig or brace is placed on the actor's back, under their shirt, that supports The Weight of the actor when they are "hung" (or "hanged" depending on your word preference). The noose is lightly connected to the rope, say with wax, so that should an accident or malfunction occur with the rig, the noose would break away from the rope instead of the neck bearing the actor's weight. The rest is just acting.
