It may be difficult to imagine in these hardened political times but JFK was much more than a mere politician. He was a star, a beacon of hope for the future. Of course, all that was shattered when he was gunned down in Dallas, Texas on November 22 1963. As we approach the 50th anniversary of that shocking day, anyone old enough will no doubt recall that moment with vivid clarity. But none more so than the bodyguard who still can't forgive himself for failing to save the President's life. Clint Hill was the agent seen scrambling onto the back of the President's car after he was shot. On 60 Minutes, he'll retrace his steps, actions and feelings on the day the world lost its innocence. *MORE VIDEOS like this one* ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bn64AyrHe4Q ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXEaDEbBzIk ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ny0tqm9VR8 FOLLOW 60 Minutes Australia ► WATCH more of 60 Minutes Australia: https://www.60minutes.com.au ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/60Minutes9 ► Twitter: https://twitter.com/60Mins ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/60minutes9 ABOUT 60 Minutes Australia For over forty years, 60 Minutes Australia have been telling Australians the world’s greatest stories.
