Inside Secrets: Life as a US Secret Service Agent Protecting 3 Presidents

Imagine being a US Secret Service Agent who is assigned to protect the President.

You train diligently in order to perform your duties in the event that there's an attempt on the President's life.

But how often does that actually happen?

• Only 4 American Presidents have ever been assassinated.
• 3 have been shot, but survived.
• 3 have been unharmed, but others were killed or injured in the attempt (much like former President Donald Trump in July of 2024)
• And there have been 4 attempts where nobody was harmed (other than the culprit)

So, how do you react when you are suddenly in that situation?

On this episode of the Happy Accidents podcast, listen as former Secret Service Agent Kenneth Valentine retells the story of the time he found himself in this scenario.

How did he feel?

What was going through his mind?

What did it mean for him to "Cheat Death"?
