** It's even worse in the novel, when it's stated that his pleasure and pain sensors are reversed. It's not that he doesn't feel pain, he's aroused by it--in one scene, he actually stabs ''himself'' in the leg with a pocket knife and practically has an orgasm. This offers a pretty creepy explanation as to why he's smiling when Bond stabs him.
