Diamonds Are Forever Gadgets

Aqua Zorbing Device

Picture
Back in the day, as it were, Bond parachutes into the sea just near to the oil rig platform that Blofeld is using as his control lair to launch his dastardly doings, before using what would have been described as a Water Sphere to literally walk on water to the platform.
Not only did this add a pretty spectacular entrance to the final act of the movie, in the world of Q Branch gadgetry and trickery, it looked completely possible.
It was.
