As long as Ethan Hunt appeared on the screens in 1996, interpreted by Tom Cruise the movie series “Mission: Impossible” has surpassed each new chapter, delivering increasingly insane, bold and dangerous moments.

The most crazy and dangerous moments of “mission: impossible”
Jump from a cliff with a motorcycle
“Mission: Impossible – Accounts: Part 1 (2023)” brings the moment when Tom Cruise jumps from a cliff riding a motorcycle. The sequence was filmed in a mountain in Norway and required months of preparation. Cruise made the jump several times to capture the perfect angle.
Hold the breath for more than 6 minutes
In “Mission: Impossible – Secret Nation (2015),” Tom Cruise needs to infiltrate a submerged installation to exchange a security chip into a highly protected system.
To give veracity to the scene, the actor trained with professional divers and learned advanced apnea techniques. As a result, he was able to hold his breath for more than 6 minutes during filming, with no special effects or disguised cuts.
Climbing in the highest building in the world
Cruise literally climbed Burj Khalifa, known as the highest building in the world over 828 meters high, using only security cables and special gloves. He ran outside the building and threw himself from one window to another.
Hung on a plane – in motion
In the last movie of the Saga of Action, “The Final Set (2025)”, the star hung on the wing of a plane at the heights. At the Cannes Festival, the director of the feature film commented: “Tom [Cruise] He struggled so hard that he was so physically exhausted that he could not get up from the wing. He was lying in the wing, his arms hanging forward. We couldn’t tell if he was aware or not. You cannot do this when you are unconscious. No one on Earth can do this except Tom Cruise. ”
Jumping from a building (and breaking the ankle)
During a scene where he jumps from one building to another in “Mission: Impossible – Fallout Effect (2017),” Cruise breaks the ankle by hitting the wall, but continues to run until the end of the scene. The fracture was real – and Take also entered the movie.
