The action star performed his own stunt in “Mission: Impossible 7” eight times. He had just six seconds to deploy his parachute before hitting the ground.

The 60-year-old star performed the cliff jumping scene without a stunt double.

Recently, actor Tom Cruise appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! to promote the movie Top Gun: Maverick before the Oscars. At the same time, he also shared with the audience about the blockbuster Mission: Impossible 7 ( Mission: Impossible 7 ) which will be released this year.

Revealing about the filming process of the film, the actor revealed that he performed the life-threatening scenes himself. In Mission: Impossible 7, he had to drive a motorbike and plunge down a steep cliff. “I only had 6 seconds to open my parachute before my body hit the ground,” Tom said. Notably, he had to perform this scene 8 times.

To avoid any risks, the crew tried every way to ensure the actor’s safety. They had to make sure that when Tom Cruise fell down the cliff, he would not get caught in the car because that could cost him his life. Even Tom’s shoelaces were taped tightly.

These revelations left the audience stunned by Tom’s recklessness. However, that is what made his name in the film capital.

“I know it’s extremely dangerous. But I just try to do everything I can, use everything I have to please the audience. Ever since I was a kid, I used to steal wood from the junkyard, and drive down the hill as fast as I could, hit the ramp, jump over the trash cans… And then I spent the next few days in the hospital,” the actor shared humorously.

Born in 1962, Tom Cruise is a golden face in Hollywood action projects. He started his career at the age of 19 with the movie Endless Love . Tom’s name became famous thanks to his role as IMF agent Ethan Hunt in the Mission Impossible series . Part 7 of this series is expected to be released in the middle of this year.
