In Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, Tom Cruise really is hanging off the side of Burj Khalifa. No green screen. Just Cruise strapped to a harness bolted into the building, even performing the terrifying slip-and-fall moment for real. Absolute madman.

In the 2011 film Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, Tom Cruise runs down the side of the 830m Burj Khalifa tower. He was first told by his stunt team it was too dangerous but eventually convinced them. How? He hired a new stunt team. LESSON: Find people you like working with.

The stunts Tom Cruise did throughout the Mission Impossible series: ▫️Passed out dangling off an airplane in mid-air. ▫️Broke his ankle jumping between rooftops. ▫️Hung off the side of a flying plane. ▫️Climbed the Burj Khalifa. ▫️Held his breath underwater for 6 minutes. ▫️Learned to fly helicopters and fighter jets. ▫️Did a motorcycle cliff jump 8 times in a day. If Mission Impossible can teach us one thing, it's that Tom Cruise doesn't care about nothing except giving the fans what they want.

MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE- ROGUE NATION opened in theaters on this day in 2015. That the movie *opens* on the stunt where madman Tom Cruise hangs off the side of a plane shows you how much balls it has. He did it 8 times. And we love him for it!

In Mission Impossible 2, Tom Cruise did most of the cliff climbing himself on a real rock face over five days. A hidden safety harness was digitally removed later. Director John Woo begged him to stop and was so terrified he reportedly couldn’t even watch, he just prayed.
