Richard Kiel Richard Dawson Kiel (September 13, 1939 – September 10, 2014) was a tall American actor and voice artist, best known for his role as Jaws in the "James Bond" franchise, portraying the character in "The Spy Who Loved Me" (1977) and "Moonraker" (1979); he lampooned the role with a tongue-in-cheek cameo in "Inspector Gadget" (1999). His next-most recognized role is the tough, but eloquent Mr. Larson in "Happy Gilmore" (1996). Other notable films include "The Longest Yard" (1974), "Silver Streak" (1976), "Force 10 from Navarone" (1978), "Pale Rider" (1985) and "Tangled" (2010). Kiel was born in Detroit, Michigan.

Jamie Hyneman then took huge metal pincers and became "Claws", who, as the announcer said, was "meaner than Oddjob, more ferocious than Jaws, taller than Nick Nack, and creepier than Tee Hee." With the metal pincers, he gets through the cord easily.

Jaws (James Bond) Jaws is a fictional character in the "James Bond" films "The Spy Who Loved Me" and "Moonraker", played in both films by Richard Kiel. Jaws is one of the most popular "James Bond" henchmen and a recurring character in the "James Bond" video games. He is a highly skilled killer relying on his brute strength and steel teeth to quickly dispatch his victims. The character was inspired by Ian Fleming's description of a hoodlum named Sol "Horror" Horowitz in his novel "The Spy Who Loved Me". When Horror speaks, he reveals steel-capped teeth.

that will temporarily hold him in place, allowing time for Bond to attack him. Jaws was spoofed in Mel Brooks' 1977 film "High Anxiety", featuring a hired killer named Braces (played by Rudy De Luca) who is wearing large metal braces on his teeth. An unrelated character named Braces from the video games "TimeSplitters 2" and "" is also referencing Jaws. The film 2008 "Get Smart", which is both a parody of and an homage to the "James Bond" film series, features a character named Dalip (played by The Great Khali), who looks like Jaws and does his "Moonraker" stunt

attendance. Kiel also played Reace, a very similar character to Jaws (complete with metal teeth), in the 1976 film "Silver Streak". In "Aces Go Places 3", the third movie in a James Bond spoof series, Kiel plays a villain named "Big G", which resembles Jaws, though he has no metal teeth. The film also features an actor who resembles the character Oddjob, another James Bond bad guy. "MythBusters" tested the plausibility of Jaws biting through the steel cable car wire. The model based on the dentures used in the movie had little impact on the steel cable, even with a

his friends IQ (the grandson of Q), and Gordo Leiter (the son of Felix Leiter), fight against the evil terrorist organisation SCUM (Saboteurs and Criminals United in Mayhem), a SPECTRE-like organization. Expanding on his uncle's famous line, James Bond Jr's catchphrase was "Bond, James Bond. Junior." Like many animated series, it regularly surpasses the Bond movies in terms of fantastic gadgets, while the violence of the adult Bond series is nowhere in evidence. The show was fully sanctioned by (and produced in association with) Danjaq and United Artists, who held the rights to the James Bond property. Jaws, a recurring

compares his scripts and his novelisations. In the novelisation of "The Spy Who Loved Me", Wood specifically states that Jaws is a mute. However, though Jaws remains mute in Wood's "James Bond and Moonraker" novelisation, he actually "does" speak at the end of the film. In the book, Jaws remains attached to the magnet that Bond dips into the tank, as opposed to the film where Bond releases Jaws from the magnet into the water: "Now both hands were tearing at the magnet, and Jaws twisted furiously like a fish on the hook. As Bond watched in fascinated horror, a

an unbreakable death grip by Jaws, who was about to fatally bite him; Bond only escaped by using a broken electric lamp to send an electric shock through the assassin's teeth to stun him. In "Moonraker" he gains a girlfriend, Dolly, who like Jaws seems to almost never speak (she says nothing audible in the film) and who is the primary reason for his reformation. Jaws also has an uncanny ability to survive any misfortune seemingly unscathed and come back to challenge Bond again. In "The Spy Who Loved Me", Jaws survives an Egyptian structure's collapse on top of him,

Cléry is also noted for playing Bond girl Corinne Dufour, antagonist Hugo Drax's assistant, in the 1979 James Bond film "Moonraker". She also starred with Bond girl Barbara Bach (who played Anya Amasova in "The Spy Who Loved Me") and Richard Kiel (who played Bond villain Jaws) in the film "The Humanoid" (1979).

"Everything or Nothing" is the second James Bond game to have its own original theme. It was performed by R&B artist Mýa, who also has a part as a Bond girl in the game. The game features a title song performed by Mýa, who also plays a character of

not to bring Kiel or Jaws back. Most of the background information on Jaws comes from Christopher Wood's novelisation of the film "The Spy Who Loved Me"; published as "James Bond, The Spy Who Loved Me" to differentiate from Ian Fleming's novel. In Wood's version, Jaws' real name is Zbigniew Krycsiwiki. He was born in Poland, the product of a union between the strong man of a travelling circus and the Chief Wardress at the Women’s Prison in Cracow. The relationship and subsequent marriage had been a stormy one and, when it broke up, the young Zbigniew stayed with his

pre-credits sequence, and the main villain Hugo Drax. Jaws is evidently well known amongst criminals, as Drax is pleased to learn that Jaws is available to hire. In his second appearance Jaws changed from a ruthless and unstoppable killing machine to more of a comedic figure (commencing with the cable car sequence) and he eventually turns against Drax and helps Bond to defeat him. In addition to having steel teeth, Jaws was also gigantic and extremely strong, which forced Bond to be especially inventive while fighting him. In combat during "The Spy Who Loved Me", Bond found himself caught in

seed for a "new master race". Bond persuades Jaws to switch his allegiance by getting Drax to admit that anyone not measuring up to his physical standards, including Dolly, would be exterminated. Jaws attacks Drax's guards, and a laser battle ensues between Drax's forces and Bond, Jaws, and the Marines. Drax's forces are defeated as the station is destroyed, while Bond shoots and ejects Drax into space. Bond and Goodhead use a laser-armed Moonraker to destroy the three launched globes and return to Earth. The end credits for the previous Bond film, "The Spy Who Loved Me", said, "James Bond

In October 1972, a second cable was added, as well as new cabins, which expanded its capacity from 22 to 75; eventually, it was reduced to 65 to increase comfort. The cable car was the setting for the 1979 James Bond film "Moonraker" in which British secret agent James Bond (played by actor Roger Moore) battles with his nemesis Jaws (Richard Kiel) in the middle of the tramway, which eventually results in a tramcar with Jaws in it crashing into the ground station and smashing through the wall, although

The films also contain elements of visual humour: when Jaws is dropped into a shark pool in "The Spy Who Loved Me", it is Jaws who bites the shark. The following film, "Moonraker", sees Bond in a comic chase scene with a gondola that becomes a hovercraft, a continuation that Bond author Raymond Benson considered "so dumb that one wonders at what age group the film was really aimed."

Jaws appeared in the 1990s animated spin-off "James Bond Jr." as a member of the SCUM organization and partner-in-crime of fellow henchman Nick Nack. In the show, Jaws underwent some change in his appearance; he was more muscular, his chin was also metal, and he spoke regularly.

These specialised Bond themes often reflected the style and locations featured in the movie, and the actor playing Bond. The "James Bond Theme" and its variations found in the movies are played during many different types of scenes. Early in the series, the theme provided background music to Connery's entrances. It was not until "Goldfinger" that John Barry began to use the theme as an action cue. Since then,

Unlike Wood's first novelization, which showed a significant difference from the actual film, in "James Bond and Moonraker", Wood writes a virtually direct novelization of the screenplay. The only noticeable differences between the novelization and the screenplay for "Moonraker" is that there is no mention of Dolly, Jaws' girlfriend, and his characterisation stays true to Wood's description as being a mute.
