It wasn’t a gun.
It wasn’t a car chase.
It was a glass of whiskey… and one of the most INTENSE moments in James Bond history.
In Casino Royale, Bond suddenly collapses during a high-stakes poker game.
His vision blurs. His heart races.
He’s been poisoned—in front of a room full of enemies.
He stumbles to his Aston Martin. Blood pressure dropping.
Hands shaking.
He rips open the defibrillator kit… but the wire is disconnected.
He’s dying. Alone.
And just when it seems like it’s over…
Vesper calls.
She reconnects the wire.
The shock hits.
Bond gasps. He’s back.
And he walks straight back into the poker room like NOTHING happened.
But here’s what most fans missed about that scene:
The type of poison used.
The subtle clues before it happened.
And the foreshadowing that ties it all to the ending.
This wasn’t just survival—it was a test.
