I thought a few other vacuum using CBNers might have wondered too so... here you go!

So THIS is what a carpet beater looks like...

I'm probably going to publicly embarrass myself by saying that every time the famous "Casino Royale" torture scene comes up I've always wondered just what in the heck a carpet beater looks like.

Ah, thanks for that! You're certainly not the only one who would have difficulty in recognising a carpet beater.

But ooh...me plums! No wonder Dan the Man's not looking forward to shooting this scene.

I don't even have one, and it hurts.

I remember reading CR for the first time when I was 13, and the carpetbeater made a great impression on me. I read it again a few years later and I crossed my legs to brace myself. And I'm a girl!

Surely they're going to use something a tad more menacing? If they use THAT the audiences will roar with laughter!!
If someone had you stripped naked, tied to a seatless chair and then repeatedly whacked your twig and berries with it ... would you be laughing?
It's what Fleming wrote. Comedy gold, eh?

Arbogast, that carpet beater looks exactly like the one my mother used to use on carpets and rugs when I was growing up. Notice how I tried to write the shortest sentence possible after the word 'mother' just so none of you got the wrong idea there. Maybe there was only one company (Acme?) out there making them back then. I remember when I first read "CR" in my teen years and the torture scene came up. I had to cringe, because I knew exactly what a carpet beater looked like. Nasty, nasty piece of work.

Good thing it had a big loop. If it was smaller it might've gotten stuck on his willy.
