I just had to check he was still alive.
That’s UK slang for suicide.
Glad he’s fine.
Well, it could be argued that needlessly doing risky stunts at such an advanced age is the ‘slower route’ to the same conclusion…
he looks like a 60 year old with a 20 year olds hair cut, but i guess if hes jumping out of planes and off hills, then he prob still thinks like he is in his 20s, but i am guessing he prob has better drs than the rest of us, and see his weather hes sick or not…
As an operating Thetan/megamind whatever he can do this because he doesn’t need the parachute. That’s just for show.
Got sweaty palms just watching that. Good for him if this is what makes him happy, but I’m in right now on the pool that says this is how Tom Cruise will one day die. Doing a crazy stunt that goes wrong.
The amount of resources consumed in putting together just that one stunt is insane; no wonder Hollywood Blockbusters cost so much. I’m looking forward to these last two films in the franchise.
Whatever else about the guy, he’s pretty incredible with that stuff. I love the original series as a kid. The movies have been really fun as well.
Slower until it is not, then it is very rapid.
I got chills when the guy on the ground commented that all three 'chutes had opened.
Oh, one day I fully expect to read or hear that he died while filming a movie.
I guess he’ll have died doing what he loves… I suppose you can’t ask for a better death than that…
Kinda sucks for everyone who doesn’t die, though.
If he dies during one of these stunts, he will just be reincarnated as the new head of that Science religion thing.
Welcome to BB, you seem so pleasant!
It’s cool that he does his own stunts and all, but I wish he would play take more roles like in Magnolia.
