Dick Cheney, the former US vice-president, has revealed that he had his heart implant modified for fear of terrorist attack.
Mr Cheney's doctor disabled the heart defibrillator's wireless function in 2007 to prevent would-be assassins from interfering with it and causing a fatal heart attack.
A similar scenario featured in an episode of the hit TV series Homeland.
