Tom Cruise is known for effortlessly delivering death-defying stunts and adrenaline pumping action sequences. He is celebrated for his commitment to authenticity and risk taking stunts, which leaves his fans mesmerised. From movies like Top Gun, where he did aerial combat scenes, to films like Mission Impossible, where he was seen hanging from a plane - the actor has left an impressive mark in the action genre.
Tom Cruise’s relentless pursuit of dangerous stunts has caused a concern among the industry insiders. According to a report in Radar Online, a source claimed, “Tom is relentless in keeping himself in amazing shape and has made zero concessions to age. It’s almost as though he’ll kill himself to stay on top. People are worried he’ll put himself in harm’s way once too often!”

Reportedly, the Hollywood star broke his ankle leaping between the buildings during the filming of Mission: Impossible Fallout in 2018. But he insisted to complete the scene. In the same way, while shooting for Mission: Impossible The Final Reckoning, he reportedly broke a Guinness World Record for a death-defying helicopter jump using a burning parachute. Insiders say Cruise repeated the leap 16 times just to get the perfect shot.
“He’ll go 24 or even 48 hours without sleep, subsisting on nothing more than caffeine and neurotic drive. When he’s not filming, he’s working out, tackling Scientology auditing sessions, raising money for his next project. At some point, he’s going to collapse or kill himself performing these crazy stunts,” report further quoted.
Apart from making headlines for performing thrilling stunts, the actor has recently grabbed attention as his link up rumours with much younger women started to surface online. Tom Cruise was linked to Laura Prepon, Russian socialite Elsina Khayrova, and now actress Ana de Armas, who is 25 years younger to him. “She’s almost half his age, and people speculate that it may be just as much about image as romance,” Radar Online quoted an insider.
