10 Worst Things James Bond Has Ever Done

10. Giving The Piranhas A Hans

You Only Live Twice (1967) - Sean Connery's 'final' Bond outing (apart from the post-Lazenby final one; and the late-period final final one) - sees 007 lay the groundwork for 50% of the Austin Powers trilogy, all the while rounding off Connery's strong five-film run with a Carry On caper. Volcano bases and Little Nellie, anyone?

This is also the film that provided perhaps the most iconic version of Spectre number one, Ernst Stavro Blofeld. Donald Pleasence brings scenery-chewing menace to the facially disfigured uber-baddie in a turn that makes the misogynistic, race-baiting, ninja-trained Bond look like the straight man of this piece.

And, of course, Blofeld's lair comes armed with a man-eating, piranha-filled pool - what else?

We all know the franchise likes to leave no flesh on the bone, and soon Bond is facing off against Blofeld's head honcho, Hans, above the pool. Without a second thought, our international man of mystery flips the bodyguard into the waters below and, as the man's screams bubble away beneath the surface, declares "bon appetit", all but winking at the camera.

Granted, one has few options in a fight for your life scenario, but this is a particularly grisly way to send someone to their doom. Somehow, though, there's still much worse to come.
