No one goes harder than Tom Cruise, at least amongst A-list actors. The icon does his own stunts whenever he can, and some of the stories of his dedication are legendary. In fact, I was recently at the CinemaCon convention in Las Vegas, and Paramount showed a behind the scenes featurette from the latest Mission: Impossible sequel in which Cruise did thousands of motorbike jumps and hundreds of skydives in order to film a stunt in which he rode a motorcycle off a cliff. It’s one of the scariest things I’ve ever seen, and he did it six times. You can read our Eric Eisenberg talk about it in more detail here.
