Sir Mick Jagger has long been regarded as one of rock music's greatest troupers, but, until now, he has been unaware of how much of a survivor he really is.
The Rolling Stones singer was the target of an assassination attempt which only failed because the boat the would-be killers were using was swamped in a storm.
Details of the plot have been revealed by an FBI agent as part of a BBC series on the American crime fighting agency.
The attempt to **** Sir Mick was made by a group of Hells Angels after the infamous Altamont Speedway Free Concert in 1969, which the Rolling Stones had organised and for which the motorcycle gang reportedly provided security.
