Pre-Credits Sequence
A space shuttle is being transported on the back of a 747
which is hijacked with the plane being destroyed and the
crew being killed. Bond is called in by M, who is up to
no good with an air stewardess. The pilot disables the plane
whilst she produces a gun. A fight entails and the pilot
who is wearing a parachute gets thrown out. Jaws then appears
and pushes Bond out. 007 has no choice but to catch up with
the pilot and take his parachute. In the meantime, Jaws
has managed to catch up with Bond and wants a piece of him.
Bond pulls his own ripcord and returns to ground safely,
whilst Jaws crash lands in a conveniently placed circus
tent.
