The Bond girls of …Thunderball! [Behind the scenes]

A nice guy on a forum recommended me a certain video that was reviewing a James Bond documentary from 1965.

So, if you read 1965 you already may think of Thunderball as that was its release year. 😉

Well, the documentary actually deals with the first 4 Bond movies…incl. Thunderball.

In the documentary, you get some really nice scenes with the three major Bond girls of Thunderball.

As you (should) know there is only one scuba scene with Domino (Claudine Auger) in the movie.

In this documentary, there are some promo shots of the girls in bathing suits, bikini, and even wetsuits!

Let’s start with the most interesting part of the documentary you can find in the video below.

And here is the video:

Well, with that kind of narration …you wouldn’t get away with it today 😉

But I like the voice, very fitting.

Sadly that was everything to find in this documentary related to the Bond girls in Thunderball. But it is very interesting material after all! 🙂

It’s great to see the women on the set in such outfits. Seeing Domino in wetsuit…in a nice glimpse in the department of “What could have been”.

And I still imaging Fiona Volpe (Luciana Paluzzi) in a black Spectre rubber wetsuit in the final scuba battle of the movie 😉

That would have been a proper ending for her.

Also in quite some footage, you see Paula (Martine Beswick) in action scenes against Spectre divers who seemingly wanna kidnap or kill her.

Sadly, they didn’t give her these kinds of scenes in the movie.

 

Here is some additional promo footage of these Bond girls:

Scuba and wetsuit scenes from “Der Mädchenjäger” [SOS Barracuda movie series]

You may have seen my post from early January about the german SOS Barracuda movie series (more info there on this movie series).

After nearly 20 years the first movie was now aired again on german pay-TV. I actually thought I would never see any of these movies.

But yesterday I saw the movie “Der Mädchenjäger” from the series. The next one will be shown in 2 weeks.

From a preview, I didn’t expect any scuba or wetsuit scenes from this movie, but actually, there were some scenes in it worth showing.

Preview:

And here is the video:

Yeah, not much, but I think that some of you may like these scenes, especially the short scuba scene. These are ALL the scenes with her in a wetsuit.

For me being able to watch these scenes after all this time is already half the fun. And infamous german actress/tv scandal maker… Nadja Abd el Farrag (nickname Naddel) looks really good in a wetsuit, even they could have shown more from her.

Her short scuba scene (most likely a stunt diver) was nice to have, even it was rather odd, to say at least, to build it in. Where did she appear from? He runs around the beach and she just shows up, completely dry(!!!!) in her wetsuit and spear gun…..who came up with that scene???? 😆

The movie itself is hard to watch, with many odd scenes and it shows that it is a TV movie.

The story itself goes like this:

Young, hot single women who arrive alone at the airport in Palma de Mallorca get picked up by an old hag who offers them a cheap room in her guesthouse. She then recommends a nice beach to them where some “stallion” approaches them. He then lures these girls to some spot where he can chloroform them. They awake on a yacht and the plan is to sell them to some Arab guy.

But the heroic german police crew who operates in Spanish Mallorca in some sort of cooperation, won’t let that happen of course, and luckily they have a hyper-fast big yacht at their disposal!?! 😉

The henchmen are -more or less- cartoon figures and have their “fun” with the kidnapped girls. The scriptwriter really liked to add quite a lot of “women in peril” scenes into the movie.

Looking forward to the next movie in 2 weeks. It’s confirmed that there is at least one scuba scene in it, but it’s not clear if any women are in these scenes.

But if so, you will get another post about that one in 2 weeks.

 

If they keep the running order, the famous movie “Tränen der Kleopatra” will be shown in 4 weeks.

Here is my old post about it:

https://frogwoman.org/female-scuba-diver-gets-attacked-and-drowned-by-evil-diver-s-o-s-barracuda

Really excited about that one, as the full movie would be really great, especially with this sort of picture quality.

The scene I posted was an old VHS recording…. and I would love to make a quality upgrade which would incl. all the female scuba and wetsuit scenes.

What do you think of these scenes?

Let me know and leave a comment!

 

 

An underwater treasure not everyone wants to share – Part 2

Time to finish this storyline!

Here is part 1 of the story.

Now our “colorful” frogwoman goes for another scuba dive with that frogman in black.

But something doesn’t feel right about him! What are his plans?

Can she escape his deadly speargun?

Preview:

(click to enlarge)

And here is the video:

I decided to delete two short scenes with her father looking for her, but let the other ones in the video as they are kind of important why he is showing up to save her.

Well, the scene does have quite some good aspects!

I do like to see him chasing after her and pinning her there where she can’t escape him. Of course, I would have preferred a scuba fight between HER and the bad guy, but with that speargun pointed at her….it was difficult to even start it for her. It is good that she had the courage of trying to escape him, even her chances would have been much better …..in my opinion, if she would have attacked him by surprise then to think she would be able to outswim him.

She was really lucky that he didn’t pull the trigger, he had enough time….but maybe he had some doubts about killing her, or was thinking about the available options for him.

The fight between the frogmen was pretty cool, even it was too short.

What I didn’t like was how passive she was as her father fought with the bad guy. But that is typical behavior for most frogwomen in these old movies/TV shows. 🙁

She could (should) have easily helped her father! As the bad guy was occupied with fighting him she could have ripped his mask off….grabbed the speargun…or…or…..or…..

….However, I really like this scene!

Here is the IMDB site of this TV show:

Scuba Fetish: An origin story (not mine)

Today I wanna post something pretty unusual for this blog.

A scuba fetish origin story by someone else in combination with a few pictures he sent!

As I am interested in such stories…I would say some of you might enjoy them as well 😉

“Scuba gear has long been apart of sexual pleasure. An iconic and almost cliched part of erotica . How many times has a glamour photographer used the image of a model in Scuba gear in various stages of undress to tickle our fantasies and arouse us. These kind of images are almost always vanilla in appearance and feature a topless young woman with a winning smile a divers helmet and snorkel. Yet the genre can be even more erotic to those of us who inhabit the kinky world. Add a diver’s knife and a sultry look and you start to venture into the kinky fetish and Femdom world. To me the woman becomes a sexy assassin and with a rubber top suit either undone or the zip low sling she becomes an even more dangerous as she entices her prey into her web with the prospect of sucking and fondling her breasts. Oblivious of the danger of her divers knife the hapless Male willingly falls into her trap. Lamb’s Navy model Caroline Munro was an expert at these sexy deadly poses with her series of magazine ads in the 70s for the aforementioned beverage. I was so taken with her the deadly sexy scuba Queen that such a look and such women gave me much pleasure and delevoped my fetish.

Spearguns added further dangerous sexiness to the genre and movies such as Deadlier than the Male with its speargun wielding beauties Elke Sommer and Sylvia Koscia delighted me more. Their spear killing scene in the film is one of my favourite erotic in cinema history. other films such as Thunderball built on this sexiness and has already been discussed on this blog. Some love the scuba men but for me Bond’s women in scuba gear floated my belt. The film was remade as Never say never again and features the heroine completing another sexy speargun kill.

Real life female divers added to my fixation . Valerie Taylor was a blonde frog woman goddess in the 70s and made documentaries about sea diving with her husband Ron. I have to confess that I wasn’t interested in the sea life but only had eyes for the beautiful sexy Val in her diving kit. As a budding submissive her symbolism of her spearing sharks was not lost on me. I wished Valerie would spear me or knife me whilst having sex ! Tv drama also got in on the act with kids cult series such as Primus and the Great Barrier Reef both full of diving action and sexy women.

You can’t discuss diving gear without referencing the blinding obvious links to the BDSM world. The rubber fetish world is massive and when you see people in full rubber fetish wear it is impossible not to link it with scuba and diving wear. The suits are interchangeable to the naked I. Surely many divers have a rubber fetish ! The world of BDSM features breath control as a major fetish so the link is there again with breathing apparatus.

I am an open water swimmer so wear a wet suit regularly. I find the initial restriction mildly erotic but it is not a major sensory experience for me to wear one quite pleasant but not essential. Having said that I am very attracted to the ladies in my club that wear them and I suppose that goes back to my original excitement as a child when I lusted after deadly sexy ladies in rubber wet suits !”

And some fitting pictures he did send to me:

What a nice (sexy) way to die!

Well, this one doesn’t fit in here at first sight. I agree, but it involves scuba gear, and who could say no to these gorgeous women in bikinis?

And the scene is…..fantastic!

A man is sitting on the terrace of his mansion next to the beach. He records vital information to a tape as suddenly two beautiful women surface from the water…

And here is the video:

A really cool way to die! A lucky guy 😉

If I ever get assassinated….I want it to be like that.

And that movie is really great, it’s a James Bond spoof with Elke Sommer.

She is one of two female assassins who work the evil villain 🙂

 

And next week there will be female divers again…I promise.

And here is the SMASHING title of the movie:

On Maskripper, you can find a villainess who likes gas masks verrrry much (scuba related):

Two frogwomen – one murderer

This old video I got for you today is strange…

There are so many questions I have about it…but check it out first:

Here is the video:

So, some strange decisions by the filmmakers I would say… 🙂 , not very logical and/or realistic 😉

I don’t know the name of the movie, I only have the letters:

Unknown movie – Scuba fight – 2 men and one frogwoman

For today I have a mystery video! I don’t know the title of the movie, maybe someone does?

Would be really great… It has a very nice scuba fight in it!

The weirdest underwater weapon ever …in a scuba battle with 3 men and one woman!

A couple dives along the ocean floor ass suddenly 2 frogmen appear. One of them carries a very strange, but deadly weapon….what will happen to our 2 divers?

(click to enlarge)

And here you can see the whole video, with all the scuba action:

*EDIT*, March 11, 2022:

Well, that is a really odd weapon for underwater warfare! And I have never seen it in any other movie. Guess the moviemakers came up with that idea 😉

Basically, it’s like a bear trap but with a staff and a lever. Certainly, the user then has a range advantage, but I don’t think many would use such a nasty weapon….

Also, it’s rare that we have her a frogwoman who actually kills another diver…. I like that she managed to finish the evil guy. I guess she was then too afraid of fighting against the other one with his special weapon, yeah….understandable.

I wish she would have had a black rubber wetsuit with a double hose regulator instead of the bad guys.

All in all a good scene with some unusual elements!

 

Here is the title of the movie:
IMDB Title

 

Female diver with vintage wetsuit and fancy gear

In this long video (7 minutes) you will see a female scuba diver with some interesting equipment.

Including a speargun and a radio system… And her blue rubber wetsuit isn’t so bad either 😉

And here is the full video with all the scuba action:

Some rare footage, so…enjoy!

I really like her blue wetsuit, pretty sexy 🙂
