*The CIA ~~has~~ made ~~over 600~~ assassination attempts targeting him, including poisoning his cigars with Botulinum toxin, a TB-contaminated scuba diving suit, exploding cigars, a booby-trap conch shell in the bottom of the ocean, a ballpoint pen containing a needle with a lethal concoction, hiring the [[Mafia]] to poison his ice cream (the closest they came to killing him), spraying his broadcasting studio with hallucinogens, as well as getting femme fatale contract agents, although this later backfired. They also tried to lace his shoes with thallium salts, which would make his beard fall out. In fact, he once remarked "If surviving assassination attempts were an Olympic event, I would win the gold medal."

They also tried to lace his shoes with thallium salts, which would make his beard fall out. In fact, he once remarked "If surviving assassination attempts were an Olympic event, I would win the gold medal."

*When Cleveland kidnapper and rapist [[Ariel Castro]] committed suicide, several people on the Internet thought Fidel died.

*Despite his fist name being "faithful", he was atheist.
