12	----
13	* In the pre-credits scene, It appears that Blofeld is finally defeated by Bond (only this Blofeld is later revealed to just be a double), and it's certainly a grisly end. Bond straps him to an operating table and then shoves the table toward a boiling, bubbling pool of mud. "Blofeld" is completely helpless to do anything other than stare on in horror and hold out his hand, before he's plunged headfirst into the superheated mud. While Blofeld is perhaps the last person you'd ever feel sorry for in a Bond film, it's still a terrifying way to go out.
14	* [[BanteringBaddieBuddies Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd]] kill Dr. Tynan with a scorpion in his back. The originally intended assassination was worse... they put the scorpion IN HIS MOUTH!
15	* The corpse of Mrs. Whistler is pulled out of a canal in Amsterdam. With Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd [[ReminiscingAboutYourVictims joking about their deed]], and [[KickTheDog planning to send pictures of the corpse]] to [[HarmfulToMinors the children she was teaching to]].
16	** Rigor mortis has already set in on Mrs. Whistler's body.
17	* [[MurderByCremation Bond is locked in a coffin and put into a crematory oven]], with ''absolutely no way to escape''. Getting cremated alive has got to be the most horrific way to die imaginable. If it wasn't for Shady Tree's timely intervention, it would have been his genuine funeral. The Wagnerian music playing during that scene hardly makes it better.
18	** Supposedly, this was the last scene Creator/SeanConnery filmed for the franchise...and it was filmed on [[ThirteenIsUnlucky Friday, August 13, 1971]].
19	* The fate of poor Plenty O'Toole, [[CementShoes drowned in a swimming pool]], with the camera helpfully panning down her body towards the large weight she was tied to as slowly as possible.
20	* The poor PLA soldier's death when Blofeld demonstrates his KillSat. [[ManOnFire He gets set on fire and dies being burned alive]].
21	* Mr. Kidd attempting to skewer Bond with flaming kebabs; as ridiculous as it may be, the manner in which Mr. Kidd menaces Bond as Mr. Wint attempts to strangle him is very unsettling. Instead, we are greeted by the sight of Mr. Kidd [[ManOnFire burning to death]] when Bond splashes him with Courvoisier, causing him to panic and jump overboard. Sadistic as he was, the sheer horror of watching a man being burned alive and screaming cannot be overstated. (The foreshortened shot of the flaming skewers gives the almost subliminal impression that his arms have been ''burned down to the bones''.) Also, Bond [[GroinAttack squeezing Wint's balls]] with his coattail before throwing him overboard with the bomb tied to him can be quite ShareTheMalePain-inducing for male audiences.
22	** Of course, [[ArtisticLicenseChemistry Courvoisier doesn’t burn hot enough]] to have the demonstrated effect.
23	* Blofeld's clone subjects drowned in mud.
