Tom Cruise performed a crazy stunt jumping from the roof of the stadium during the closing ceremony of the Olympics
The Olympic Games are about to head to Hollywood, and Tom Cruise just gave everyone a taste of what it’s going to be like.
During Sunday’s closing ceremony, the “Mission: Impossible” star performed a daring stunt jump from the top of the Stade de France.
As the spotlight found Cruz on the roof, he was lowered to the floor of the arena on a cable. He then made his way through the athletes to the stage, shaking hands and taking selfies along the way, including a very enthusiastic hug from one female athlete.
That was not all.
As part of the Hollywood handoff to Los Angeles, which will host the Games in 2028, Cruz picked up the Olympic flag, placed it on a motorcycle and rode out of the stadium through a crowd of athletes. (Didn’t see anyone hurt.)
In a bit of movie magic, Cruise is next seen in an apparent pre-taped segment driving through Paris until he reaches a plane that defies space and time to arrive in Los Angeles.
As the camera zoomed out, Cruise was spotted at the Hollywood sign, where the Olympic colors replaced the double “o” in the word Hollywood.
Yes, it all really happened.
Cruise is of course known for his love of stunt work.
The actor has flaunted his body for many movies, most notably the multi-billion dollar “Mission” franchise, in which he plays detective Ethan Hunt. An eighth installment is expected in 2025.
“It’s not that I’m not scared,” the actor told CNN last year. “It’s that I don’t mind being scared.”
