New Delhi: At the closing ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics, Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise added a thrilling touch of cinematic excitement to the event with an awe-inspiring stunt. Channeling his iconic Ethan Hunt persona from the ‘Mission: Impossible‘ series, the 62-year-old actor executed a dramatic skydive from the top of the Stade de France, creating a spectacular finale to the Paris Games and transitioning the Olympic torch to Los Angeles for the 2028 Games.
Cruise’s grand entrance began with a high-altitude descent to the pulsating ‘Mission: Impossible’ theme song, embodying the adventurous spirit for which he is known. As he parachuted gracefully to the ground, he interacted with athletes and spectators, exuding his signature charm before taking the stage. At this point, he received the Olympic flag from star gymnast Simone Biles, adding a memorable touch to the ceremony.
The Olympic flag was then transported by Cruise on a bicycle through the lively streets of Paris, making its way to a waiting cargo plane bound for Los Angeles. This segment of the ceremony provided a fitting homage to the conclusion of the Paris Olympics and the excitement of the upcoming Games in LA.
After the ceremony, Cruise shared a thrilling selfie on his official X account, taken while suspended from safety cables above the stadium. The post, capturing the exhilarating moment, highlighted Cruise’s unique blend of Hollywood glamour and genuine passion for the Olympics. His remarkable appearance has certainly added a captivating chapter to the history of the Paris Games.
