THUNDERBALL | Underwater fight

It’s the mother of all underwater fights in THUNDERBALL (1965). Underwater filmmaking specialists Ivan Tors Films were hired to create 18 underwater sequences which contained 83 separate shots. The unit were led by Ricou Browning, a filmmaker, cameraman and stunt performer best known for playing the Gill-Man in The Creature From The Black Lagoon.

This film and scene are cool today never get tired of a classic.

Amazing. It still looks good today as it ever did. I would've thought it might have dated a bit, but it's as menacing as ever. Perhaps the claustrophobia of being underwater adds something to the usual fight scene.

Haha the scuba fin at the end floating up is a nice touch. Almost like crash bandicoot

[abhishekpaul]

That's a great This is the most thrilling, exciting and wonderful moment in the whole

[madhousenetwork]

unbelievable for a movie from the 1960s!

[universalexports]

Great scene from days gone by which you never see nowadays and Barrys score is incredible!

[jmcasas]

Nowadays we no longer see such classic action scenes (accompanied by a great Barry-esque score) like this in a Bond movie. What we have now is a Bland Bond always having tantrums and doesn't know whether he's Bourne, Ramboo, Statham or in a Nolan's films.

I've always loved this scene, its why I developed a love for scuba

[MetalHeadJagger]

Man that music at @1:25 gets me everytime its so beautiful and thrilling

[AdrienMercier]

I know this is on a schedule or something but really should've been something from Goldfinger for Honor

[Buffalobills-fhbe]

Only in James Bond do you have a under water knife 🔪/spear gun fight 😂

One Guy in the underwater war Wears a Shooting Contraption On his scuba Tank.

[ShindlerReal]

This would be pretty boring without that bombastic John Barry music.

[matthewkretschmer]

Good to know that Bond the good side are in red wetsuits, as for Largo and his men in black wetsuits.
