Tom Cruise steals the show in Paris Olympics closing ceremony

NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: Hollywood action icon Tom Cruise channelled his inner Ethan Hunt, his iconic character from the blockbuster "Mission: Impossible" films, as he helped bid adieu to the 2024 Paris Olympics and hand things off to Los Angeles for the 2028 Games with a daring skydiving stunt.

At the closing ceremony on Sunday, the 62-year-old descended from the top of the gigantic Stade de France to the "Mission: Impossible" theme song, shook hands with the athletes on his way to the stage, took the Olympic flag from star gymnast Simone Biles, and carried it on a bike through Paris streets to a cargo plane ready to take off for Los Angeles.

Cruise, who shot his 2018 film "Mission: Impossible – Fallout" in Paris, later on his official X account shared a selfie when he was in the air suspended from the safety cables above the stadium.
