I was incredibly fortunate to have probably the best team of people working with me and… but they got worried too, obviously, you know. And I don't know if I told you that story, but on You Only Live Twice this... this crater lake opened on rails, you know, and the first time we tried it – the whole construction crew, myself, various other people, stood down below, I mean, this was 120ft up – and suddenly there was an explosion, or it sounded like an explosion, and we thought the whole set was going to implode or collapse, and my construction manager who never, never was worried, I mean, you know, Ronnie Udell, he immediately sent somebody up there to see what had happened.

First of all we were all waiting if there was another explosion, you see, and what we found is that one of the riggers had left a pulley in the steel rails in which the... this artificial lake was sliding, and the wheels of the... lake structure went over that pulley about that size, and it sounded like a... a terrifying explosion, but fortunately nothing happened, so you do need valium, you know. And you know, it was very funny because Cubby [Albert 'Cubby' Broccoli] said… I remember Cubby saying that, ‘Every time Ken puts pencil to paper, I have a heart attack’, you know. But those Bond sets really worked very well, you know, and I had probably the best team of collaborators I ever had in my life.
