After surviving more than 600 reported assassination attempts, former Cuban president Fidel Castro passed away peacefully aged 90.

The controversial Communist leader, who ruled his country with an iron fist as a one-party state from 1959 to 2008, spent most of his fifty years in the cross-hairs of the U.S. government.

'If surviving assassination attempts were an Olympic event, I would win the gold medal',' he once said of the multiple attempts on his life.

Fabian Escalante, who protected Castro, claims that there were 638 CIA plots to assassinate him, in plots which would seem at home in a James Bond movie.
