He jumped with a flaming parachute 16 times – Tom Cruise enters the Guinness World Records for the new Mission: Impossible scene

Tom Cruise has achieved a Guinness World Record for his daring scene featuring a flaming parachute in Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning. He completed an incredible 16 jumps from a helicopter, using parachutes soaked in fuel and ignited—a record unmatched by any other actor or stunt performer, according to the official Guinness Records account.

This thrilling scene was filmed in South Africa’s Drakensberg Mountains, with Cruise and his team preparing for weeks. The actor leaped from a helicopter at over 75,000 feet, using a flaming parachute. During the descent, he disconnected from the main parachute and activated a backup to ensure a safe landing.
