This is quite an overlooked scene in the series. Bond rarely looked that terrified and scared about how he‘s gonna get out of this! It truly is one of the very deadliest situations he‘s ever been in throughout the franchise! And for such a cartoony Bond movie, this scene is extremely dark, disturbing and kinda out of place but very cool and tense! It is also one of the rare moments in the series where Bond really would have been dead if it wasnt for the Q gadgets
This and the scene where Corinne is chased by the dobermans are very good. Would have been very at home in a Dalton Bond. The first half-hour in general is played pretty straight. It starts going off the rails after in Venice.
Roger deserved an Oscar for this. Who said he was not an actor? The other character that seems to me could play this escene dramatically was David Day Lewis (My left foot)
@@proa007 The biggest mistake was turning Jaws into a joke. He was genuinely menacing in The Spy Who Loved me. It's a shame because, as you said, there were some great action scenes in this movie. Michael Lonsdale was a great baddie.
This was one of those situations where it looked impossible for Bond to escape. And man those sound effects when the centrifuge was moving. Chills right there.
That look he has around the 4:47-5:00 mark, knowing someone tried to kill him and very nearly succeeded, and wanting to return the favor, that's pure Bond. I agree with other comments, so strange to see this considering how far out the movie gets, but a great Bond moment.
Damn. No one liner or anything. Moore played it really straight here. I know he's capable of it, but it's interesting that they had such a scene in this film.
A neat detail in this scene is that they thought of showing the speed effecting Bond's facial skin, which makes the whole thing feel a lot more intense and real.
Ok. I read up on this skin movement scene on James Bond’s face. It was indeed compressed air used on his face while filming. But patrons at a bar named Bikinis Bar and Grill in San Antonio, TX used a hairdryer to make skin movements like that shown in the 007 movie ‘Moonraker’ and thus called it by the same name used in the movie. There’s some 1977 trivia for ya!
@Ricardo Cantoral, Moonraker is, rightly so, criticized for too much comedy, but you tend to forget there were some great action sequences. The parachute fight in mid air, the centrifuge, the martial art fight with Chang, the killer dogs chasing the girl in the forest, Jaws creepy appearance at the carnival, Bond shooting the sniper in the tree, the cable car fight, shuttle launches etc.
@@johnt7630 That didn't make up for the tepid pace and the lack of real thrills such as this centrifuge scene. The Spy Who Loved Me maintained a sense of humor but it was a thriller first and foremost.
The way she ignores Bond every time he throws a sarcastic quip at her and just stays down to business the whole time like she already knew what to expect when she got round to dealing with him, that itself is just badass to me
And he was much more progressive than bond. He actually left after a view to a kill due to the fact that he found it gross to be portrayed as having a relationship with women in their 20s.
I have never seen anything as epic as Roger Moore's last 5 movies(1977-1985) before or since! The one and only, true English gentleman agent: Roger Moore!!!
A great scene no matter what you say about Q.Hes always there too help and protect bond.The look on chang face when bond comes out of the machine classic.
this is one of the rare occasions in which the translation from the original language gives a better line than the original one (I'm Italian): in the Italian version Dr. Goodhead tells Bond "c'mon Mr. Bond, a 70 year old arrives to 3 (Gs)...", then Bond answers "my Grandfather always prided himself on getting to 5" :D
As a further tidbit, the original line, "There's never a 70 year old around when you need one", is a take on an old Groucho Marx joke from 'Duck Soup' - "Clear? Ha! Why, a four-year-old child could understand this report! ...Hey, run out and find me a four-year-old child because I can't make head nor tail of it..."
R u sure? Sean Connery almost got strangled by red grand on the train once? Sean almost getting burnt alive in/cremated whilst Tracy diamonds in Las Vegas?

@@pjosepha But I never felt that Bond was ever going to actually die in those scenes, especially the ones with Brosnon where everything felt cartoonish. We see Bond begin to blackout and have his life flash before his eyes, so that's why I say it's the closest he ever came to dying.

This would actually have been a very, very nasty death. Weird that in an otherwise corny entry into the 007 franchise, _this_ is one of the ‘death traps’ that frightens me the most . . . It’s also one of the most surreal in how Bond all but hallucinates Q and the King William III painting, as if they’re both ‘with him’ to remind him how he can save himself . . .
This is one moments where Bond actually looks vulnerable, especially when he gets out of the pod and the woman tries to help him. I know people say Moore's outing were camp and ott, but there's truly no smug Bond here. Roger Moore's acting here is outstanding, and when he was in the pod and the guy's turning it up so the G's are going max, look closely a Moore's face there, how did they do those ripples in the skin of his face!? It looked like somekind of real G-force or something, honestly he looked like he was about to pass out for real.
This was really horrifying even for bond's standards .. ! Liked how Bond leaves the scene without a word brushing aside the Doctor, She must hv been wondering wow this guy so chilled out in the beginning.. Like what happened, did i miss anything!
At 3:10, look at Moore's muscle twitching, left cheek. That's seizure from disturbed blood circulation caused by centrifuge acceleration. VERY REALISTIC!
Bond: Hey look!!! A suspicious looking samurai henchmen in Japanese garb. Must be culture week at NASA. Man!! Can’t wait to try the sushi after this fun little ride!!!
Anybody who says Roger Moore sucked as Bond needs to watch this scene - one of the few times 007 is flat out panicking, and Moore plays it beautifully.
MOONRAKER(1979): "Where all the other Bonds end...this one begins!". *** Great scene! Good old times, when James Bond films were visually gorgeous(thanks to Ken Adam), well directed(thanks to Lewis Gilbert) and James Bond(Roger Moore) himself was a charming English gentleman agent(even at the age of 51)! Actually, his last 5 movies(1977, 1979, 1981, 1983, 1985.) were all great!
They actually built this full size working centrifuge for the film and just for as few mins runtime! Today they would get a way with a digital model and small set for him to climb into. ah those days! This is one of my fav bond films as it ticks a lot of the fun boxes and also the advertising boxes too! Venice, Rio, France and outer space; or at least a sound stage in England.. Jaws is back again and brilliant story of him finding love with a small cute girl and helping bond out to defeat the always beautifully spoken Villain of these films...
Roger's best moment as Bond hands down. Best acting ...and considering he's the most light hearted Bond who know one took seriously, including himself, this is the most frightening real Bond scene of all of them. And was done by roger himself. The beautiful irony.
As a kid and teen it really stood out, I think because it doesn't follow the same style as any other bond 'fight' or near death experience. It's literally like slowly watching him die, realising there is no way out. Roger Moore was my favourite so it always hurt to imagine him dying by watching this.
Me too!!!! I was only 10 years old in 1979, & I never forgot this particular scene of the ENTIRE movie! I even remembered the woman's reaction, when she came inside to help him after it stopped! 😳😳😳
Is it me or is this the first time we see roger Moore experience his first quantum of solace- search for comfort when pushed or forced on the edge of death? I must admit just like any astronauts training, r. Moore would've passed out or die of shock to lack of oxygen. Such gravity force is impressive and he's still able to walk it off
This happens after Drax tells Chang to "Look after Mr Bond. See that some harm comes to him." Classic line in this film along with "At least I shall have the pleasure of putting you out of my misery."
Roger Moore's acting is really good i find in the last half of the clip where bond is struggling and how he is after the ride stops plus the music tune is class as gets out and that
Going to take a phone call when your guest is spinning around at 10 Gs is like starting the bath water and then going in the other room to take a phone call. But the time you realize it, the water has collapsed the ceiling of your neighbors apartment below. If she was so concerned about Bond’s safety, she would have told the man ‘tell him I’ll call him back!’
Yeah right... Moonraker is SO silly... Come on... This is clear prof that Moonraker is just as dark and serius as a lot of the other bond movies with the other bond actors. Just because there is jokes in the movie doesnt mean that the movie isnt dark and serius. Actualy it makes those dark moments even stronger than they would be if the movie was serius and without humor all way through. I love Moonraker.
@cellomaan, yeah I like Moonraker. But for me, the biggest mistake was turning Jaws into a comic. When you first see him in the creepy scene at the carnival and the fight on the cable car, it was like the old Jaws from The Spy Who Loved Me. Then, inexplicably, they made him into a joke.
Still one of the high moments of the series; I'd put it just under the Goldfinger laser, in terms of Bond-in-danger scenes. (Craig was so physically impenetrable I never worried about him.) I always wondered how they got his skin to ripple. A massive high-powered fan somewhere? Neat trick, whatever it was.
Probably Roger's shining moment as Bond. No quip this time. Bond genuinely thought he was going to die and is clearly in shock. Roger plays it absolutely brilliantly.
If only the rest of the movie had been as good as this scene
This was probably the movie where the villain was the coldest and bond was the most desperate for his life, I mean he went out into space

Never seen Bond staggering, so disheveled, heaving, out of breath, and so near the precipice of crapping his pants. Truly Roger Moore's finest hour.
They tried to approximate that with the revival scene in the Craig Casino Royale.
One of the most amazing, frightening sequences ever committed to celluloid.
The scope of Bond films is, as always, impressive. For such a short stage, such a complex decoration was built

Roger Moore's acting is really good i find in the last half of the clip where bond is struggling and how he is after the ride stops plus the music tune is class as gets out and that
I love how his face stretches so much because of the centrifuge that for one second it's like roger moore seemed younger than normal lol
Fantastic acting. Doesn't get any better
Going to take a phone call when your guest is spinning around at 10 Gs is like starting the bath water and then going in the other room to take a phone call. But the time you realize it, the water has collapsed the ceiling of your neighbors apartment below. If she was so concerned about Bond’s safety, she would have told the man ‘tell him I’ll call him back!’
I can`t believe Roger Moore were older than Connery. He seems very fit in his early 50's here. Connery at that time was bald and looking, well, old.
I’d never noticed the pause and slight sardonic smile she gives Bond after he describes the purpose of the device.
@2:16 A display labelled display just in case you were wondering what it is.

Meu querido e predileto Roger,saudades!🙏🥰❤💋⚘🍀
Yeah right... Moonraker is SO silly... Come on... This is clear prof that Moonraker is just as dark and serius as a lot of the other bond movies with the other bond actors. Just because there is jokes in the movie doesnt mean that the movie isnt dark and serius. Actualy it makes those dark moments even stronger than they would be if the movie was serius and without humor all way through. I love Moonraker.
@cellomaan, yeah I like Moonraker. But for me, the biggest mistake was turning Jaws into a comic. When you first see him in the creepy scene at the carnival and the fight on the cable car, it was like the old Jaws from The Spy Who Loved Me. Then, inexplicably, they made him into a joke.
Jaws has a girlfriend and drops from ozone onto a circuis tent and survives.
The film has good parts but still silly
This is the one time the speeding up of the film (that Bond films are known for) actually looked real.
The non-powered whoosh at 3:59 perfects it.
John Barry's composition here really sounded like Somewhere in time
Still one of the high moments of the series; I'd put it just under the Goldfinger laser, in terms of Bond-in-danger scenes. (Craig was so physically impenetrable I never worried about him.) I always wondered how they got his skin to ripple. A massive high-powered fan somewhere? Neat trick, whatever it was.
Her voice..😍😍😍
stunning scene from start to finish. my personal favorite is his tie.
4:36 When you get off the Cross Trainer after 30 minutes...!
Dr. Good Head. 😍
