Trivia fans take note, Guiness World Records have listed a new world record for "Die Another Day".

Panels of "breakaway" glass each measuring 2,525 mm x 1,635 mm x 30 mm (8 ft 3.5 in x 5 ft 4.5 in x 1.125 in) were specially created by UK`s Paul Taggart, Doug Allam, Dave Kelly and a team of plasterers under the supervision of Paul Hayes, also from the UK, at Pinewood Studios, Iver Heath, Buckinghamshire, UK, using urethane liquid plastic. Built for the stunt sequence in Die Another Day where James Bond drives his Aston Martin V12 Vanquish through the closed doors of the ice palace. Each panel was made from 160 kg (352.7 lb) of SMASH! Plastic.
