Tom Cruise on Thursday presented what he called his most dangerous stunt ever. In a clip from his upcoming Mission: Impossible 7 movie. Cruise, known for doing his own stunts takes a motorbike ride down a ramp. And off a giant cliff in Norway and let’s go in mid-air before his parachute is released.
The clip, and a featurette of Cruise and director Christopher McQuarrie talking about the feat. Those showed at the CinemaCon gathering of movie theater operators and Hollywood studios.
“This is far and away from the most dangerous thing I’ve attempted; we’ve been working on this for years,” Cruise said in the video, according to Deadline Hollywood. “I wanted to do it since a little kid.”
In past movies, Cruise has hung off the side of a plane as it takes off, piloted a helicopter through narrow mountain ravines, scaled the 2,717-foot high (828 meters) Burj Khalifa skyscraper in Dubai, and performed a skydive from almost five miles high.
