Speaking to late-night host Jimmy Fallon, according to Page Six, Berry revealed that her Die Another Day character apparently wanted to wrap the spy around her finger with a particularly lasciviously eaten fig.

However, that backfired and the star choked on the fruit so badly that Brosnan had to save her life:

I should be all sexy and try to seduce him with a fig. At the end I almost choked on it and he had to get up and do the secret. That wasn’t so sexy. James Bond knows how to do the Heimlich! He was there for me, he will always be one of my favorite people in the whole world.

With the Heimlich is the so-called Heimlich maneuver meant. In this life-saving measure, pressure is exerted on the abdominal cavity from behind with both arms in order to expel any foreign bodies that are stuck in the trachea.
