He insists on doing his own stunts (can you imagine in insurance underwriter, LOL).

Have you seen the stunt where he's on the side of an airplane?

Yikes.

Some people would love to do that stuff for free, with no one watching. I suppose he has that personality type.

How would he get along at tncr?

Has he ever been the target of death threats? Hanging off planes and driving motorcycles off cliffs is one thing, but I wonder how he'd react to mentally ill TDS sufferers and their violent internet stalking. This forum is not for the faint of heart.

Tom Cruise…plenty of ammo to criticize him but damn if he isn’t a dying breed in Hollywood. Great acting, great…running, does many of his own stunts, has lucky genetics, and prioritizes the theater experience.

Don’t forget this footage he released in the midst of Covid to get folks back into the movies:

Just a couple of days ago.

Australian freestyle motocross star Jayden Archer has died, reportedly crashing while practising the trick that made him famous.

Archer, 27, was the first motocross rider to land a triple backflip in competition, at the Nitro World Games in Brisbane in November 2022. Moments later, he proposed to his girlfriend.

He was killed while practising the trick at training in his hometown of Melbourne, according to ESPN.

Video of him doing it the first time.

As good a thread as any to post this:

As a scientologist he probably doesn't believe in mental illness.

Which is pretty ironic.

Judging by the horizon, it looks like the video (or camera) was rotated. But still.

Exactly. A very hard NOPE still, but yes a bit of camera trickery, too. Check out my elite powerpoint editing skills:

Yeah, might be one of those where the ground is actually just out of view, no more than a meter or so below the guys feet.
