Or just over 98mph in old money. But it's into water, so it doesn't matter :?

Cr-egg looked sickly in SK-Awful, worse than in his first 2 films. He will not age well at all. Let him play PruneFace in a Dick Tracy remake. :idea: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_NDo-t0LyQ9Q/T ... ke-up5.jpg

A big hand came up out of the water and saved him. Didn't you see the credits sequence?

People have survived falls from much greater heights than 322 feet. http://www.cracked.com/article_19996_5- ... vived.html

OTOH, the PTS for Goldeneye is simply impossible. I watched with my father (a former aeronautical engineer) and he was so upset he walked out of the theatre.

Who's hand? WHO'S HAND? Honestly, BJ, I can't believe you would even ask such a question. Isn't it obvious?

No, I don't know either.

Why an explosion of action films now at age 60 for Pierce? What was his agent doing after 2002? Cr-egg will never achieve this success post Bond, 'no bout a doubt it' :!:

20 March 2014 9:50 AM......IMBD:"Apparently this whole thing was faked, but it was a pretty good one especially since the video was posted on what was made to look like Sony Pictures' official YouTube page for the film. It has been pulled though."

Total Film tweeted out the following update:
We've spoken to Sony, the Bond 24 teaser is indeed a fake - just as we thought. Expect an official announcement soon.
"Here's a surprise! MGM has released a teaser trailer for the 24th James Bond film which has been given the title Come and Dive. The trailer features some moody music and Daniel Craig looking unemotional. The film doesn't even start shooting until fall, and won't hit theaters until late 2015, but producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli apparently wanted to give fans something to spark their excitement. We have some new information on the film as well."

Good for Pierce! I'm happy he's still doing action after Bond. Never been much of an Expendables fan though. Maybe the other Bonds can get in on the action.

Why else would Pierce break away from the Bond image?

OTOH, the PTS for Goldeneye is simply impossible. I watched with my father (a former aeronautical engineer) and he was so upset he walked out of the theatre.
I mentioned the story about a young lady falling from a similar distance on to rock and surviving. Survival is possible, while unlikely, certainly no chance of surviving it unscathed. However it's a movie the rules for movies differ from reality in that if by some slim chance there is water any fall is gently cushioned.

The irony for me is found in a series which prided itself on divesting from fantastical elements they certain have made Daniel in to a superman. The last two films he fell from fantastical heights to survive none the worst for wear.

Incidentally Daniel would be my choice for Aquaman he has aptly demonstrated he does not have the need to breath while underwater. ;)

Goldeneye stunt, you know it bothered me at first, I am aware of people recreating the stunt to the extent they can I am not sure if it is totally the realm of CGI as some later films were. However I would rather give deference to an aeronautical engineer. I suppose vehicular stunts bother me less than physical stunts where no imagination is left to an external element/force influencing the outcome.

An odd thought struck me, the Goldeneye dam stunt, Verzasca Dam 220m bungee jump, Daniel wouldn't require the bungee cord he would simply drop and roll. ;) :mrgreen:
