nothing says james bond like martinis
00:08
and great cars
00:10
of all the franchise superheroes out
00:12
there
00:13
none are as inextricably linked to great
00:16
cars like 007
00:18
and with no time to die the next
00:20
installment in the bond franchise coming
00:22
to theaters soon we wanted to take a
00:24
look at some of the craziest bond car
00:26
gadgets over the years bond car gadget
00:29
number five the 1980 lotus esprit that
00:33
transformed into a submarine in for your
00:36
eyes only
00:37
unlike most bond gadgets that seem to be
00:39
created with very niche uses in mind
00:41
this one actually seems like quite
00:44
practical to this day there are
00:46
manufacturers that make amphibious cart
00:49
but the fact that it's a supercar and a
00:51
british one at that
00:52
makes it so very bond
00:55
being able to drive off a pier during a
00:57
car chase press a button and then just
01:00
sit back and watch your car transform
01:01
into a submarine would be so useful in
01:04
real life namely in getting away from
01:06
your in-laws no clancy and martha i do
01:09
not want to see the side show from your
01:10
jersey shore trip
01:12
some quick trivia elon musk a real-life
01:15
bond villain
01:16
bought the submarine prop car for one
01:18
million dollars and said that he plans
01:19
to make a real submarine car out of it
01:22
no word on that yet keeping our fingers
01:24
crossed number four timothy dalton's the
01:27
living daylight one of the most
01:29
underrated bomb films starring one of
01:30
the most underrated bonds in our opinion
01:33
featured a v8 aston martin vantage and
01:35
it laser wheels you heard that right
01:38
laser wheels let me explain this complex
01:41
scenario so that you can understand it
01:42
its wheels
01:44
shot lasers out of them
01:46
you can see it in action here lasering
01:48
the soviet cop car during a chase
01:50
sequence
01:51
how does this thing even work where are
01:53
the laser beams coming from within the
01:55
axle where's the power coming from last
01:57
i checked the normal 12 volt battery
01:59
that comes in a car is barely able to
02:01
charge my iphone much less a high
02:03
powered plasma beam
02:05
clearly this is meant to be more of a
02:07
modern take on the famous wheel
02:08
shredders from the og bond car the db5
02:11
and we love it
02:13
more lasers and everything please coffee
02:15
mug put a laser in it masonry put a
02:18
laser in it dentures you guessed it
02:20
lasers now it's time for our famous
02:23
segment notable mentions look at the
02:25
skis that come out of this particular
02:27
bond car skis where are you gonna need
02:29
skis number three in tomorrow never dies
02:33
bond is up against the scheming media
02:35
mogul who plans to engineer a war
02:37
between the world's superpowers so he
02:39
can make a fortune covering it a
02:41
dastardly plot to be sure and bond's
02:43
arsenal for this mission included the
02:45
stunning bmw 750il
02:49
in the film bond goes on a hair-raising
02:51
car chase in a parking garage where bad
02:53
guys throw up all manner of traps to
02:56
stop them and one of them is a big metal
02:59
rope stretch taut to basically bisect
03:03
the car as it drove through it
03:05
and what does bond do to combat this
03:07
specific obstacle a very specific
03:10
cutting device that pops out from under
03:12
the bmw logo on the hood
03:15
we're going to have to put q branch on
03:17
blast with this one q your whole plan
03:20
for this thing was that it only works on
03:22
horizontal things specifically metal
03:24
ropes that are precisely three to four
03:27
feet above the ground
03:29
what if it was two or four and a half
03:31
feet above the ground bond would have
03:33
had enough like a deli cold cuts number
03:36
two the invisibility cloak in die
03:38
another day the last pierce brazen bond
03:40
movie an actor better known for his
03:42
criminally overlooked rendition of
03:44
winner takes it all in mamma mia the
03:46
amazing aston martin v12 vanquish is
03:48
outfitted with an invisibility cloak now
03:52
as much as i hate this we do have to
03:54
take cue to task for this as well an
03:56
invisibility cloak is the very first
03:58
thing we would have thought of that's
04:00
like the number one thing aside from
04:02
flying that everybody wants as a
04:04
superpower also as much as we love the
04:06
idea of putting it on the vanquish may
04:08
not have been the best car to do it
04:10
since its v12 growls like a lion number
04:14
one has to go to the very first and
04:16
frankly ultimate bond car gadget the
04:19
ejector seat
04:20
the gadget featured in goldfinger is so
04:23
bonkers that of course submarines lasers
04:25
and invisibility had to come next the
04:28
concept here is that your passenger in
04:30
the beautiful db5 is a bad guy or girl
04:33
and you want to get rid of them with
04:35
extreme prejudice do you stop the car
04:37
and wrestle them out of it no
04:39
that is so gauche
04:41
clearly the gentlemanly way to get rid
04:43
of an unwanted guest is to rocket them
04:45
30 to 40 feet in the air with no means
04:48
of coming down safely i'm leo schrevsky
04:51
for the tundra enthusiast network thanks
04:53
for watching
04:59
