The free-fall sequence seen in the film was performed by the actors doing indoor skydiving. This utilizes a vertical wind tunnel (VWT) which shifts air up through a vertical column wind tunnel at about 120 mph. People can fly through the air without having to skydive or parachute. As a person floats in mid-air, their action is so described as body flight or bodyflight. This activity is a legitimate pastime similar to sky-diving and is also used as training for that sport.

Casion Royal left us with a glimmer of the old bond returning to out screens. How wrong we were to be misled by this.
This was an out and out action movie. Bond has lost his charm, his wit, his gadgets, his humanity. While I was prepared for a darker Bond, this new bond was really just a thug with 00 license.
The story was weak and the villain was neither scary nor evil.
The action scenes were filmed in a very choppy manner which made them hard to follow.
There was no suspense.
This was a poor sequel to Casino Royal.
The franchise needs to pull it together, or it will lose it's audience
