    Agreed, Howard. RIP Richard Kiel. For such a big man who appeared scary to me as a kid in the movies, he seemed like such a down to earth, gentle and kind man. Richard Kiel, you made quite an impression on me as a kid watch The Spy Who Loved Me & Moonraker. What a time it was to be born in the 70’s and to be a kid growing up in the 70’s and 80’s. We has James Bond, Clint Eastwood, Bruce Lee, and Star Wars. Now everything is a remake and/or unoriginal. Jaws was the best Bond villain for sure.

    I'm really proud that when I was Historian at the International Spy Museum I got to do the interview with Richard Kiel that is the backbone of this piece. Recorded it at a studio in Fresno, CA where he lived. He was a delightful man full of fun stories. I also came up with the first rough outline of this video. The Museum's video production team cut it back massively and made it about 20 times better than my version, mind you!

    The only villain to be loved by the audience. We cheered for Jaws. Richard Kiel made Jaws so likable, and his character couldn't even talk. I don't think he gets enough credit. People just assume that Jaws would be just as likable regardless of what the actor did.

    The cable shown that Jaws bites through is made of hardened twisted steel with an overall thickness of about 2 inches. You could shoot at that cable with a high powered rifle and the bullets would bounce off. You could detonated dynamite on it and nothing would happen. People don't realize how strong cable like that is.
