We study the intensity dependence of ionization and fragmentation of buckminsterfullerene (C60) in strong laser fields. Our data provide strong evidence that at intensities ≤1014 W/cm2 these processes occur predominantly via multiphoton excitation of the 20 eV plasmon resonance of C60. At least two plasmons have to be created to initiate fragmentation or multiple ionization.
