Tom Cruise Performs Epic Stunt at 2024 Paris Olympics Closing Ceremony


Tom Cruise made a special appearance during the 2024 Paris Olympics closing ceremony on Sunday, August 11, transitioning the Games to LA in 2028

With the help of a cable wire, Cruise jumped from the very top of Stade de France to the arena floor, where he made his way through a mass of athletes before retrieving the Olympic flag from L.A. mayor Karen Bass and gymnast Simone Biles. Once out of the arena, a pre-taped package showed Cruise making his way through the iconic streets of Paris, including the Champs-Élysées, with the action star eventually finding his way to a cargo plane that took him to Los Angeles. The Olympic flag was passed off to skateboarder Jagger Eaton, who brought it to Venice Beach where audiences were treated to performances by California natives including Red Hot Chili Peppers, Billie Eilish and Snoop Dogg.
