Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted May 28, 2015 Juan Reinaldo Sanchez, former Castro bodyguard, 66. http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/lifestyle/2015/05/27/juan-reinaldo-sanchez-fidel-castro-former-bodyguard-dies-at-66/You mean the one who authored that book I mentioned last year? That's a key point otherwise it looks like we would get excited over some random bodyguard.....I thought it rang a faint bell with me! Nothing came up on my search, apologies for not quoting you. *humbled by DrZ* Well done DrZ It's telling in that if true and if any connection, Fidel still wields some power and thus not as close to his demise as suspected. Whether a connection exists who knows. SC If it was retribution for writing that book.... doesn't necessarily mean anything about Fidel's health. Just means he might have a soulmate in the White House...? (conspiracy background music) Anyway, I would guess against it. 66 is an okay age for a blue-collar type who lived in a Commie country, and his constant proximity to the world's smuggest cloud of cigar smoke makes him like the dictatory equivalent of Roy Castle. (p.s. Willz I wasn't complaining cos I didn't get "quoted", just a bit annoyed at the vagueness that's all) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't be surprised if he made it to the 2020s. On the other hand... he looks a bit different, now that I think about it. Maybe it's a body double? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe it's a body double? you think it's possible that if he died or had advanced dementia or something they might use a body double for a while ? cos I agree there's something different looking about this guy .could the real Fidel actually be dead?!

Dr. Zorders 1,271 Posted August 13, 2015 Hey, errr Fidel... I heard Thatcher and Reagan were both lifelong fans of being careful at the top of the stairs. They thought it made them better than everyone else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
