Max Kalba is the owner of the Mojaba Club, who has taken possession of the submarine tracking system that Bond and Amasova are trying to buy.

During the meeting, Kalba is called away to receive a phone call. When he gets there, the mysterious caller has hung up leaving Kalba holding the receiver perplexed. The audience soon realises this was a trap, when one of Stromberg's hired assassins, Jaws, enters the booth Kalba is in and displays his rather unique weapon: a pair of metal teeth.



We don't see Kalba die, but can only assume that those teeth played some crushing role in his demise.



Mouseburger says: I have classed this as strangulation as i suspect that Jaws dispatched Kalba by crushing his windpipe with those metal teeth. Aficionados are more than welcome to clarify...

I wonder what category "biting" would fall under? I thought he bit Kalba's Jugular!

Well, if we're going to submit deaths involving vampires, "Biting" sure sounds like a good category to add! smiling smiley
