For the latest instalment in the Mission Impossible series, Tom Cruise has performed the “biggest stunt in cinema history” by riding a motorcycle off a cliff and parachuting to safety...
ADVERTISEMENTLook! Up in the sky!
Is it a bird?
Is it a plane?
No.
It's Tom Cruise...
In what has been described as the "biggest stunt in cinema history", new footage of Hollywood star Tom Cruise riding a motorcycle off a cliff and parachuting to safety has been released to the world.
The spectacular death-defying feat, which was filmed in September 2020 in Hellesylt, Norway, will be part of the latest instalment of the Mission: Impossible franchise, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One.
"This is far and away the most dangerous thing we have ever attempted," Cruise says in the featurette released by Paramount Pictures.
Which is saying a lot considering he's climbed the Burj Khalifa in Ghost Protocol, hung out of a plane in Rogue Nation, and done a HALO jump in Fallout...
The behind the scene looks at the filming of the stunt also reveals that Cruise performed the stunt six times in one day.
Pretty impressive for a 60-year-old...
The highly-anticipated Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One is set to be released in the United States on 14 July 2023.
Check out the video above for a look at Cruise's insane stunt.
