Krest is the owner of Wavekrest, which serves as a front for Sanchez's (q.v.) drug empire.

Firstly Bond manages to get himself into Sanchez's inner circle, and begins to suggest that someone in his organisation is trying to kill Sanchez. Sanchez suspects Krest and he decides to pay him a visit. To coincide with this visit, Bond and Pam Bouvier infiltrate Krest's boat to make it appear that Krest has been ripping Sanchez off and stealing his money.

When Sanchez discovers a pile of his money in the decompression chamber of Krest's boat, he throws Krest inside it and begins raising the pressure of the chamber. Once the pressure reaches a critical point (displayed visually as a dial going into the red), Sanchez, taking an axe from one of his henchmen, hacks through the air-pressure vent. This rapid decompression causes Krest's head to rapidly expand, then explode.

When asked what should be done with the money (which is covered in Krest's blood), Sanchez cooly says "have it laundered".

Stop posting asking for screenshots. We'll add them as and when we get a chance.
Do you have any idea how long it takes to grab decent screenshots using an archaic computer with a DVD drive that keeps threatening to region lock itself to Tasmania?

As it is, I think poor old Mr Mouseburger has a severe case of Bondicitis, and will be taking a rest from 007 for a while.

This would count as Betrayl, right? After all, Krest and Sanchez were working together and Sanchez, with his lust for power after being manipulated by Bond, kills him.

Licence to Kill is one of the most underrated movies of all time. And this death, to put it in Nostalgia Critic terms is the BEST DEATH EVAH!
