How to crash an Aston Martin
When the stunt team tried to flip James Bond’s Aston Martin DBS in ‘Casino Royale,’ they found the car too stable to be overturned by an 18” ramp. In their last attempt they fitted the DBS with a gas cannon and ended up rolling the car a total of 7 times, accidentally setting a new world record.
This story starts in late 2005 when Aston boss Ulrich Bez invited Bond producer Barbara Broccoli to look at a new model under development in their design studio. Broccoli immediately loved the car and cast it as the perfect transport for Daniel Craig in Casino Royale.
