James Bond Saved Her in Real Life

James Bond Saved Her in Real Life

The story of Halle Berry and Pierce Brosnan is one of those moments when fiction collided with real life. While filming Die Another Day, a scene meant to be seductive suddenly turned into real danger. Berry choked on a fig, and it was Brosnan who reacted in time and helped her with the Heimlich maneuver. Years later, Berry herself recalled the episode with humor, while making it clear that he had saved her life. For once, James Bond was not only playing the hero. He was one off camera too.
