Tom Cruise does live stunt in Paris Olympics closing ceremony | ABS-CBN News

Hollywood's top gun Tom Cruise rappelled from the roof of the Stade de France into the Paris Games closing ceremony on Sunday (August 11) before speeding off with the Olympic flag in a dramatic handover that began the countdown to the Los Angeles Games in 2028.
A beaming Cruise high-fived athletes after making the roughly 160-foot descent before jumping on a motorcycle and exiting the stadium as the crowd at the 80,000-seat stadium roared.
Living up to the stunning success of the Paris Games may seem like mission impossible for LA and the celebrity-rich city will lean on its stars such as leading man Cruise as the Olympic spotlight turns to Southern California.
Cruise was among the many celebrities seen taking in the action at the Paris Games, showing up at gymnastics, swimming and soccer.

Legendary actor & heartthrob TOM CRUISE lands in Paris Olympics closing ceremony and accepts the Olympics flag, which he carries to Hollywood hills in a jiffy, true to a trailer of a forthcoming Hollywood film. 😊😊❤❤

[SkyKing]

Something went wrong with his stunt. He had something attached to his right leg with a string attached to it that Cruise was pulling while descending to the ground, but it apparently malfuctioned. My guess is it was a flag of some sort.

[sebastiendorat]

The way he desperately tried to pull on the rope that was supposed to deploy his leg flag and his face as he's about to reach the ground gave it a rather comical aspect than anything else in my opinion.

I can't say that there was a WOW effect for me and the following pre-recorded sequences with CGI'ed Hollywood hills and Long Beach sea colors, with the small mockup of beach party that seemed to be attended only by paid extras instead of a real public, were in the same vein as this cascade. The idea was probably nice on paper but the delivery and final effect were rather meh.

My heart hurts for his abandoned daughter Suri. It’s sad that bad fathers are honored in our culture. It’s tragic that’s he’s wasted himself on a cult.

[marklenox]

That whole segment was so lame and corny.

[ocxlbzv]

I'm nit to sure that was a stunt....I'd feel some type of way if I was a stunt person for a living....lmao hopefully the actual Olympics are better

[codegmeister]

Olympic associating with hollywood after the fake last supper is just so irony

[mysteriousman]

Why is hollywood so deep in this, they think they can psyop the whole globe again. Nah we good fam

[mikelevesque]

GUYS A LOSER JUST ASK KATIE HOLMES SHE WILL TELL YA

[thomasnordin]

why don't you show video when Tom Cruise does this, so bad of you.⛔️👇🏻👇🏻

[VanessaKeener]

Seriously, this man is so all about himself. I could do this as long as I was hooked up the way he is!!

[edenhunter]

Lovely for tubby, little Tommy to retire like this ...

[Caesar]

America has a 300+million population and is the most diverse country in the world and they are celebrating winning the Olympics like it's impressive? It would be embarrassing if they lost and they almost lost China tbf China is doing some lab experimentations on humans but even places like Japan and Australia won alot of medals and they have a pretty small population and are not as diverse

[taroman]

Lame! stupid. but then the opening and closing were as well.

[samanthacuckow]

That's how he used to get to Epstein Island.
