When Blofeld shoots Osato, he falls dead along the back wall kind of under/to the left of the stairs. When Hans is coming down the stairs later(right before his fight with Bond), if you look close you can see the actor playing Osato is still laying there.

And, likewise, when Hans is thrown by Bond into the piranha pool, if you put it into slow-mo, you can see Osato there, too (his leg, anyway).

Okay, so it's nothing important, but such an attention to detail like that is pretty nifty. And this is one of those Bond movies chock full of bloopers and mistakes, one would think they wouldn't still have the actor laying there.

Well spotted Goldthumb.
I'm going to have to dig out the video and have a look.

I thought it was interesting what you wrote. And noticing wee bits of trivia like that is a sign you are a true Bond fan, at least I think so.

It's also amazing that there are also small detailed positive aspects in YOLT! But that's what it keeps it exiting for me!!! :)

This is a wonderful suprise.... I think there will be more of them... we have just to look and watch closer on the screen maybe we'll find further unexpected things.... :-p

I noticed a couple small details like that in YOLT.. cant remember off top of my head, as it isnt one of my fave Connery's, but one thing is, its about the only Bond which doesnt suffer from a daylight/mighttime blooper. Y'know, like in GoldenEye, after the chopper blows, taken into St. Petersburg in pitch black, gets out 30 mins later, et voila, daylight.

BTW, if tid-bits like that prove a true Bond fan, what does 17 out of 19 directors cut videos mean?

That I am, despite the fact I have very few movies on tape, but have seen many of them. I need to get more! More, more, I say! More Bond!!

You know, I drove in to work early this morning. When I left the house pitch black, 30 minutes later, et voila, daylight. Either that's not a blooper in Goldeneye or my life has some editing problems. (I wouldn't bet against the latter.)

[off-topic]Parasyte, I don't want to come off as picking on you, but that is one huge signature.[/off-topic]
