8 Famous Movie Scenes That Were Created By Complete Accident

8. Daniel Craig Emerges From The Sea In Casino Royale...Because He Hit A Sand Bank

It's one of the most famous moments in Casino Royale, a moment that many believed to be a callback to the famous scene in the first James Bond film Dr. No, in which Ursula Andress emerges bikini-clad from the sea. It's a scene that established Craig as an international sex symbol, solidifying his role as James Bond in the popular consciousness. According to Daniel Craig, however, the whole thing was a complete accident. In the script, Craig was supposed to dive into the water and swim off, presumably meant as a much more throwaway contextual scene, and not the iconic moment it has since become. Craig claims that while diving into the water, he collided with a massive underwater sandbank, which caused him to stand up and begin walking back to shore. In fact, the actor believed he had totally messed up the scene. But damn if that isn't some sexy standing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaOZjjmjd7w
