Presidents Abraham Lincoln, James A. Garfield, William McKinley, and John F. Kennedy were all assassinated in the course of our history. But this doesn’t mean that the other 42 presidents weren’t at risk of assassination too, throughout their presidencies.

You’ll see how a 50-page speech saved the life of Theodore Roosevelt, and how an airplane wheel block spared Nixon, but also how Gerald Ford was almost a victim of a member of the Charles Manson family.
