I read Cracked every day, and thanks to that site, I just discovered something weird.

Not only does Blofeld's "Garden of Death", from the novel YOLT, exist...

But you can find it in England.

Third entry on that list:

Funny, no ?

    I'm impressed. This should silence all those Bond fans who say it can't be adapted to screen.

    Brilliant! The link to the garden's website is fascinating, I fest like I was back in toxicology classes.

    Very true, I personally would love to it to happen!

    Just going back over my previous comment, it was actually the suicide topic in YOLT that would be difficult, or risky to adapt to screen- not the garden itself. My mistake. Anyway, I wouldn't mind seeing this garden for myself if I ever visit England.

    While they're at it, they can cast Poison Ivy as Bond girl. ;)

    This is normally where I'd say something like "but maybe she's turned over a new leaf", or another stomach-turning pun- but that just increases the chances of the mods closing this thread. So back to the topic at hand :)

    Oh my, if only they had this back in the 60's, then You Only Live Twice would've bee closer to the book.
