SKYFALL | Bond's home destroyed

He never liked the place anyway… today’s clip is the destruction of Bond’s ancestral home in SKYFALL (2012). Special effects supervisor Chris Corbould said: “We built a third scale model of the house and two-third-scale models of the helicopter.”
The scene was devised with two explosions. A small explosion that creates debris which knocks the helicopter off course and sends it careening into the house. The fuel tanks then ignite, causing a massive second explosion. “We used 150 stacks of dynamite and a couple of hundred gallons of fuel for that one,” said Corbould proudly.

You take one of the most influential and historic Aston Martins made especially from the films and destroy it. That is like taking the life of one of your best friends. The Aston Martin in my honest opinion is made with absolute soul and passion. It's a shame though that some of the newest model aren't liked by others. ❤️

I love how every Bond film up to this point had Bond destroying the villain’s lair but what makes Skyfall so special is that this time, the villain comes to destroy Bond’s “lair”, his home.
