Tom Cruise on his own adventures in Mission Impossible- Ghost Protocol

While the Hollywood star has been busy promoting his new movie, Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, he also shared a few moments of truth, filming the fourth installment of the famous franchise.

Taking his role of Ethan Hunt, Cruise talks about his death defying stunts where he has to jump from the top of the world’s tallest building, Dubai’s Burj Khalifa – measured at 828 meters.

On premier in Dubai, the actor recalled the fear of having to perfect the stunt, despite doing considerable amount of training back in his home land.

"It’s one thing seeing it and another thing trying to accomplish that… The first moment, you know I have one little pick here and one little rope. I remember just being there saying ‘this is a moment of truth’," Cruise, who is known for doing his own stunts,
told reporters.

"I had to figure out how to fly. I had to figure out how to use my feet as a rudder because you have crosswinds up there. It took a while to work out how not to come slamming into the building head first," he said.
"I was very excited because I thought it would be very entertaining for an audience and very challenging, and so that’s why I did it."

Tom was simply pleased to have accomplished the stunts and praised director Brad Bird’s vision of allowing the latest movie to be different and far more adventurous than any other.

"One of the challenges of any sequel, particularly a third sequel, is you have a lot of audience expectation, going in," Bird said on the red carpet."But I think you can run straight at those expectations and play with them, and zig when the audience are
expecting you to zag, and I think that’s what we did in this movie."
