Tom Cruise's Daring Stunt Earns Him Guinness World Record
Tom Cruise achieves a Guinness World Record for daring parachute stunt. Tom Cruise has added another incredible feat to his already impressive resume. On June 4th, 2025, he officially entered the Guinness Book of World Records for the most parachute jumps performed by a single person. What makes this achievement even more extraordinary is the method: Cruise executed 16 jumps from a helicopter, each time with a parachute pre-soaked in fuel and set alight. After each jump, with remarkable composure, he severed the charred remains of the parachute and deployed a reserve. "It's an honor to recognize his incredible bravery with this new title," stated Craig Glenday, editor-in-chief of Guinness World Records. This audacious stunt underscores Cruise's commitment to his action-hero persona, blurring the lines between reel and real life. The record-breaking jumps were filmed as part of an upcoming Mission: Impossible movie, further cementing Cruise's legacy as a fearless performer.
