What a load of rubbish. People who refuse to believe in God fall for this superstitious nonsense. Throw some salt over your left shoulder and forget about jinxes and hexes.

I am glad the 3/4 photo is commented on above - indicating it is a dummy. Not so in the paper copy, very disturbing.

Miss A Watson, surbiton,

The only curse on this film is the rubbish title.

Mack, London,

ye micheal from ireland.... i'm sure they arranged for the stuntman to fall into a coma after the accident for PR reasons, get real

Alex, London,

The filming of The Twilight Zone was also blighted by the death of Vic Morrow, the respected actor who was with the 2 children.

David, Manchester, UK

Stunts gone wrong, or a PR stunt going very well?

Michael, Ireland,

The roads may have been gently winding, but was he gently winding round them?
To be fair, the question does not produce the answer.

Ken Leyland, Liverpool, U.K.

Let me get this: James Bond superstituous? Get real!

Don Basilio, Cambridge, UK

Guys commenting on how the door was opened -have you seen photos of the Aston? The roof was crushed & windows smashed so the pressure inside was the same as the lake bottom. I'm amazed the door opened considering how mangled the bodywork was. Hoping for full recovery for all involved in the crashes

Kate, London, England

I will be my usual cynical self and point out they are getting a lot of free publicity for this film

Michael, Lincoln,

Yes It's all a load of tosh, but actors and directors have always been a supersticious lot. Just mention 'the scottish play' and see how they react!

:-)

Trevor, Sheffield, Yorkshire

I hesitate to say this, but using the Occam's Razor principle - has anyone asked if it's just a rubbish car?

Julian, Warwick, UK

Observer, Caernarfon - luckily it is a dummy, if you hover over the picture the caption comes up. It had me worried for a while!

Louise, Manchester,

Why have you watered down the details of the actual accident in paragraph no. 5 ?
A German newsreport states that the speeding car slammed into a truck and then blew into a wall, seriously injuring one of the stuntmen, who had to be taken to hospital by helicopter and is now in a serious condition.

SM, Hyderabad, India

There appears to be someone in that damaged car in picture 3/4 up there......

Observer, Caernarfon,

I'm more intrigued about how he swam 170 ft to the surface from the bottom of the lake.

Sam Roberts, London,

"I wasnt going fast..." Of course you weren't you poor thing! I'm sure that everyone given the chance to drive an amazing sports car around one of Italy's most beautiful lakes would stick rigidly to the speed limits! ;-)

Mike , Leeds, UK

Congratulations to Mr Dunn Fraser if he's managed to convince his boss at Aston's that he 'inexplicably' lost control. Could it have possibly been that he was giving the car absolute death along the 'gently winding' roads anything to do with it? I know I would have!

Chris, Banbury,

A curse?!!! What a load of absolute tosh.

Bishop Dominic Stockford, Teddington, Middlesex, UK

Alternatively the film is blessed. It is amazing that no one, save for the poor gentleman who suffered a heart attack, has died.

A .V. Cubey, Manchester, England

People talking about curses in the 21Century! Who put the curse - the local witch?
When you do dangerous things accidents happen. Every stunt man knows this.
Jackie Chan has broken every bone in his body, does that mean he is cursed?

plato, ely, uk

Well at least Daniel Craig still seems to be alive. Possibly as a precaution, he should visit a cardiologist - just to make sure he doesn't suffer a broken heart, when the show resumes.

Mark Time, Glasgow, Scotland

maybe the window was down and the car had filled with water?

daniel, London, UK

Oh yeah! I saw those "hammers designed to break the glass on the car when you are under water" being sold in the shops. They seem to be the latest accessory for everyone to keep in the glove compartment ;-)

tony, Blandford, England

Harry what about them lot that built the pyramids. Not only am I quite confident that all of them are dead but half of them passed away whilst they were still building the darn thing.

Mike Man, Hull, England

no the whole phrase "quantum of solace" is unlucky except of course for the insurance company who can now charge more than the films entire budget for insurance premiums - that must be a quantum and a half of solace to someone :P !

fc, newcastle upon tyne, uk

I'm with Ian...It's extremely unlikely he just kicked the door open. Your best bet when underwater is to break the glass with one of those hammers designed for it, or wait for pressure between outside and inside to equalise (e.g. car fill up with water) and then open the door.

James, London, UK

By the time the car sank to the bottom it would have filled with water and equalized the pressure. Don't you watch Mythbusters?

Jeffery, Seattle, USA

The car at the bottom of a lake would have an enormous amount of pressure pushing against the door from the outside. Realistically more than 220lbs for every square foot of door, on the conservative side that’s going to be more than 1,000lbs of weight - the guy just kicked the door open?

Ian Bryan, Reading,

Quantum is an unlucky word to use perhaps ;)

Xavier , London, England

You call that a curse? What about "Gone With the Wind"? Almost everyone involved in that film is now dead.

Harry, London,

Read 'Psychic Self Defense' by Dion Fortune.

Chris, London,

Perhaps this comes of using an Ian Fleming story title without using the substance of the story; could it be Fleming is fed up with the bogus plot they have come up with....or is the plot just too reliant on car chases?

D LaJuett, Silver Spring MD, USA
