Tom Cruise’s Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning stunt are ranked the most dangerous.

Cruise is doing it all over again in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One. The motorcycle stunt mentioned above was dubbed by Cruise as the most dangerous he’s ever done, and it required months of planning before it was executed for the film. Cruise trained for over a year. The stunt sees him riding off a cliff on a motorcycle and then BASE jumping to the bottom of the mountain. This continues to show how insistent the Mission: Impossible franchise is at pushing the envelope for practical action scenes, and how Cruise is always willing to do whatever it takes to entertain.

Cruise also has several other stunts in the film, including an extensive car chase on the streets of Rome alongside Hayley Atwell. A newly-released featurette showed that Cruise did most of his own driving during the sequence, adding to the authenticity of the moment. The Mission: Impossible franchise has always been on the cutting edge of stuntwork and crafts action scenes based on how far Cruise can go. It looks like the franchise has its biggest chapter yet with Mission: Impossible Dead Reckoning – Part One. The premiere is July 10.
