Tom Cruise Performs Stunt at 2024 Olympics

Tom Cruise performed an impressive stunt at the 2024 Paris Olympics closing ceremony, which included rappelling from the Stade de France, riding a motorcycle, and skydiving into Los Angeles, all without pay. Casey Wasserman, president of LA28, shared that Cruise's involvement escalated from an initial idea of using a stunt double to insisting he perform all the stunts himself. After finishing filming 'Mission: Impossible' in London, Cruise flew to L.A. at 4 a.m. to execute the stunt, which showcased his dedication to the performance. He completed multiple jumps and collaborated with a seasoned production team to ensure its success. The stunt was a significant moment in the transition to the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, with Cruise passing the Olympic flag to various athletes. Wasserman praised the French team's execution of the event and highlighted how Cruise's passion added to the excitement of the Olympics.
