Top 10 Times James Bond Really Should Have Died
James Bond is an international spy and the UK’s best secret agent, who always seems to escape near death experiences so that he can save his country (and the world)! For this list, we’re counting down the class Bond scenes when 007 gets himself very, very nearly killed but somehow makes it out alive. Sometimes by luck, sometimes by judgement and sometimes just because it seems impossible to kill him, Bond always survives. Expect to see gun fights, skydives, tsunamis, knife fights, airplane scenes, burning buildings, huge car crashes, sickening falls, deadly drive-bys and Bond taking a bullet. You’ll be shaken, stirred, dazed and confused by just how he manages to walk away.

Which version of Bond deserved to meet his end most?
The You Only Live Twice scene was staged by the MI6
You forgot STDs and catastrophic liver failure
No reference to the Moore era?
Only 10 occasions?.
Nearly every time he's encountered henchmen/women and villains it's a near miss, simply because 007 could have easily been wiped out – take a look at "Casino Royale" (2006) for example?.
The confrontation with Mollaka, Dimitrios, Obanno, the car crash, various assassins, when the building had sunk, not to mention that fight in the tanker at the airport and that's one movie alone – imagine all of the movies?.
Good luck with counting them all!.
Holy fack. It’s a movie!!! If you want a more accurate depiction of a person / chatacter, go see a documentary.
4:40 – I never understood that. Possibly because I was in a car crash in 2011 where the car rolled just once and I ended up with a broken collarbone, arm and wrist despite wearing a seatbelt.
#10 Well they probably did that because GoldenEye was the first Bond movie in 6 years since Licence to Kill. So they had to do an awesome thrilling sequence as a way of marking Bond's triumphant return to the big screen.
I honestly thought #3 was going to be about Bond resisting suicide over Tracy's death. But instead it's about Bond not getting shot dead by Irma Bunt as well.
Age springs to mind never mind all these haha
No wonder that the most stupid scenes are from Brosnan movies.
I’d put the poison on a rope while bond is sleeping in YOL2 at number 1
On Her Magesty's Secret Service: It didn't really occur to me that Blofeld could have stopped the car and finished Bond off. Of course, I am glad he didn't. However, before I watched this video, it never really dawned on me until now. Great list and I love the commentary. A+
Do you know why he didn’t die in any of these because he’s Bond, James Bond
I love how even James Bond is an agent of British, there somehow cannot exist with out the USA ??. It boils me that the British will always be dependent on US ??. The cinematography the production the writers the script the score basically the while movie is American, except the main cast. ?
"Why do Chinese girls taste different…..?" Wow can we have a Top ten racist bond moment list please. I am sure there is plenty to pull from.
Reviewing these moments in the Game-of-Thrones era, and deciding good Bond films can also really suck.
Plus, 6:16 Crashmat orgasm.
What about skyfall when he was shot and fell to the water? Or when he was poisoned in casino royal.
I cant wait for the next movie.
What about the centrifuge scene in Moonraker?!
Not sure if u made already… But how about same concept video with Ethan Hunt..!!..n may b Indiana Jones
How can u miss Casino Royale ..heart attack scene… Bond was literally dead coz of machine failure…
U missed the cradle scene from goldeneye he should have fell off of the cradle like 5 times but of course hes immortal so yeah
I always accepted number one as a fake from beginning to end.
Surely, the most unlikely cheating death scene has to be in Casino Royale where Bond is poisoned and uses a defibrillator in his car!
The universe works in his favor every time that’s why
And how many times should he have died … of AIDS? Too soon?
3:00 oh god the CGI
Missed torture scene from Spectre
