Skyfall how does silva escape

Night falls, and a second wave of men, including Silva, arrive in a helicopter. The helicopter flies around the house shooting through the barricaded windows continuously before landing outside of the manor. Silva strides out of the helicopter with his band of mercenaries and throws incendiary grenades into the mansion as he makes his way to the manor house. After throwing more incendiary grenades through windows of the manor house and taunting Bond, he circles the manor house and waves his arm in the direction of the Aston Martin.

The helicopter then shoots it and blows up the Aston Martin, much to Silva's sadistic delight and to Bond's angered look. Upon seeing his Aston Martin being destroyed at the hands of Silva, Bond finds a pair of gas tanks and a stick of dynamite, as he lite a match onto the fuse of the dynamite being placed onto the gas tanks, timing them to explode as he escapes through the tunnel himself.

Silva and his henchmen circle the house before it explodes into a massive and gigantic fireball explosion, which manages to kill and incinerate the majority of the Silva's henchmen and causes the helicopter to crash onto the manor house, adding more further causalities onto the rest of Silva's men manning inside the helicopter, with an angered and shocked Silva looking on in horror before being temporarily shocked and knocked out by the blast in the process.

Silva is presumed by the audience to have been blown up. Silva gets up and looks at the blazing wreckage he is in. Looking across the moors, a crazed and determined Silva spots Kincade's flashlight within the distance with the latter escorting M towards the chapel, and he stumbles in a pursuit after them, but not before ordering his two remaining surviving henchmen to eliminate Bond to prevent the latter from pursuing him.

Later, Bond emerges from the tunnel in pursuit having survived the blaze of the explosion that reached the tunnel , incapacitating one of Silva's two remaining henchmen by fly-kicking him, resulting in his neck being snapped. Bond purposely falls through the frozen ice on a lake while fighting the other gunman, allowing Silva to reach the chapel and approach M while Kincade is coincidentally out of sight and upon the latter coming out, Silva fires a warning shot at the jamb of the side-room of the chapel and holding Kincade at gunpoint, warning the latter of not to interfere as the latter raised his hands in fear.

Despite his hatred for her, Silva appears worried when he sees M's bleeding and fatal wound, but nonetheless holds a gun onto her head.

When he struggles to execute her himself, he forces the gun into her hand, placing his head beside hers and demanding that she kill both him and herself with a single bullet through their heads. At this point, Silva's psyche seems to have shattered even more. Bond arrives at the last minute and hurls his father 's old combat knife into Silva's back, causing him to scream in an agonizing pain and fatally wounding the latter, with Bond declaring himself the "last rat standing" in reference to Silva's earlier speech at Macau Hashima Island.

Eventually, Silva kneels down at floor of the chapel, succumbing to his wounds at the back as he loses consciousness, then collapses and lays dead onto Bond's feet, but his plan ultimately succeeds in the end, as moments after, M collapses in Bond's arms and dies from her earlier wounds, with a watching Kincade taking off his hat in respect onto the passing of M. Throughout Spectre , Silva is frequently referenced. The character appears during the film's opening credits sequence in shattered glass alongside the former M, Le Chiffre and Vesper Lynd.

The final reference to Silva appears in the film's climax when is kidnapped and taken to the soon-to-be demolished SIS Building. A print-out of his face adorns one of several cardboard cut-outs in the building's now dilapidated shooting range. The irreparable damage he caused to the building is clearly shown.

Raoul Silva was a young, tall and a bit muscular man with peroxide long blonde hair which was parted to the right and blue eyes; both were probably not natural. He wore a prosthetic upper jaw to conceal the damage done by the failed cyanide capsule; without it, his left cheek collapsed, causing his lower eyelid to droop as well, and he was left with only a few stubs of teeth which were grey with decay.

In his first appearance, he wore a cream jacket, a Prada tile print dress shirt, brown waistcoat and trousers, and brown shoes. After escaping his cell at MI6, he disguised himself as a Metropolitan police officer. In the final showdown at the Skyfall Lodge, he has a long trenchcoat, a communication earpiece, a black shirt and combat boots.

When he was working under M, Raoul Silva had a deep admiration for the future MI6 head to the point of considering her a mother figure, and as a result, he experienced her betrayal as a serious trauma that destroyed him psychologically, hence his determination to play with her before killing her with his own hands he even refused to let one of his subordinates do it in his place.

This event also generated a great infantile anger in Silva, which pushed him to dedicate his life to send the wave back to M, but also against his country that he had sworn to protect and that he now considered guilty of the sufferings he endured under torture during his captivity. In the present, Silva was a powerful, feared and ruthless terrorist whose only concern is to see M die, even if it means risking his own life to do so.

He indeed often revealed an apparent disregard for the safety of his own life, allowing himself to be captured by SIS in a bid to exact revenge on M.

Though he maintained an intensely strong hatred towards the MI6 head, he was also conflicted about her. He was convinced that he had survive to "look into [her] eyes one last time". During their confrontation in the MI6 cell room where he was held after his initial capture, Silva grew increasingly more agitated and deranged as she refused to show any remorse or regret for her actions, especially when she refused to use his real name.

When he first met Bond, he also blamed M personally for compelling him towards a path that could easily kill him, quite ignoring his own willingness to do so. Silva called her "Mommy" or "Mother" multiple times, and he ultimately could not bring himself to personally kill her - to the point when he has her at the point of a gun, and can't bring himself to pull the trigger.

He had a sarcastic wit, shown constantly against Bond during their battle of wits, even using Bond's own words against him. Silva was also an overly dramatic, flighty, flamboyant, peculiarly quirky, and colorful man with a flair for theatrics. Despite his chaotic methods, Silva maintained an air of calm and often handled things with ease - even after his men were killed by Bond, and later held at gunpoint by the latter, Silva remained completely reserved and even managed to mock him.

He was often jovial, rather refined and expressed himself with a polite and deceptively benevolent language. Silva also seemed to have an appreciation for classical music, notably Boum by Charles Trenet. During his attack on Skyfall Lodge, he had outfitted his assault helicopter with nearly a dozen loudspeakers - solely for playing rock music during the attack namely Boom Boom , by The Animals , for the purposes of intimidation and being a nuisance. As Bond put it, he "always [had] to make an entrance.

Silva was extremely intelligent, able not only to outsmart M, but Q and Bond as well, even going so far to use them as part of his plan while playing with their nerves. Even M, who has always been critical of Bond, described Silva as 'a brilliant agent'. Despite being revealed to have been funded by Ernst Stavro Blofeld, Silva proved himself to be master at puppeteering as well.

Despite being a pawn, he certainly was not a puppet. It has been theorized that Silva had borderline personality disorder, which is characterized by intense fear of abandonment, emotional extremes, and an unstable sense of identity.

Posted 28 February - AM We think Silva's not much of a fighter, but is it possible he's holding back some serious skills? Posted 28 February - AM Good point, I thought that as firstly I assumed the guards would be armed with a dangerous prisoner amongst them, and since Silva wasn't, he'd have to get them pretty damn close to kill them without being shot.

Commander Veterans posts Location: Vancouver. Posted 28 February - AM we will probably know the entire truth Posted 28 February - AM Possibly. This is where our great Bond minds can write our own version of events! Lecter himself is a cipher for Dracula in that film, the superhuman monster. When he escapes he not only manages to overpower his guards, he also arranges their bodies in ways way beyond what you'd realistically expect from a not-too-fit middle aged guy.

Silva's escape is meant to mirror this alarming ability without going the whole distance, artistically arranged corpses and escape by use of one man's 'face'. But the fact Silva's held in that cage and a straitjacket already tells us the Service is aware of Silva's extraordinary abilities, probably because they trained him.

After all prisoners are not usually treated under such high-security conditions, not unless you have reason to expect them being dangerous beyond the ordinary means. Commander Veterans posts Location: Surrey, England.

Posted 28 February - PM We could see he was riling up the guard. Posted 28 February - PM Maybe he cut their necks with his false teeth! Posted 28 February - PM This topic is an interesting one. That's what I'm thinking. So why the convoluted scheme?

Silva could easily have killed M at a time when she was less closely monitored, and if his plan is intended to inflict maximum damage on the secret service as an institution, killing M in full view of the public would if anything prove that Bond's employers MI6 should be given more support and powers. Similarly, it is due to his arrogance that Silva lets himself get caught solely to prove MI6 were hopeless against terrorism, only for him to die being proved wrong.
