Un film de Christopher McQuarrie Avec Tom Cruise, Rebecca Ferguson, Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, Hayley Atwell, Esai Morales, Vanessa Kirby, Pom Klementieff, Henry Czerny, Cary Elwes
00:30There's a lot going into this stunt, so Tom put together this master plan to coordinate all of these experts in each of the particular disciplines involved to make this whole thing happen.
00:42John and I are jumping out of a helicopter. He's going to chase me. That's what we say to each other. Don't be careful. Be confident. Be confident.
00:51A year of base training, advanced skydive training, a lot of canopy skills, a lot of tracking.
00:56Tom Cruise, he's an amazing individual. You tell him something and he just locks it in. His sense of spatial awareness, he's the most aware person I've ever met.
01:07Lots of practice on stability and freefall.
01:10Tracking with John and Miles in the air, doing lots of different positioning, like there were a two-man team in the air, coming on top of each other, below each other, backtracking, front tracking.
01:17You know, we've drilled and drilled and drilled.
01:21When you do a lot of jumps back-to-back, the canopy control skills improve a lot.
01:25We have three open canopies, which is a good thing.
01:35This is the next part of training right here, motocross.
01:38Let's do it.
01:38So we built a motocross track.
01:44Getting competent in the motocross, so he's comfortably jumping 70, 80-foot tabletops.
01:49Great timing, great positioning on the bike, landing world.
01:52I have to get so good at this that there's just no way that I miss my marks.
01:57That's good.
01:57Come a little closer to me.
01:58Coming up with the stunt is only one of the technical challenges.
02:01The other is putting a camera in a place that you can see where Tom is doing it.
02:05Finding the right lens, the right platform, the right medium.
02:08Even two years ago, the cameras didn't exist that would allow us to do what we're trying to do today.
02:13How do we involve the audience?
02:15I just want to give them that thrill.
02:17That means the camera has to be in front of Tom and as close to him as possible.
02:21Feels like you're going over the camera.
02:23Yes.
02:23Very cool.
02:26You train and drill every little aspect over and over.
02:31And over and over again.
02:33They were doing 30 jumps a day.
02:36Getting to a point where he was just a machine.
02:38I mean, over 500 skydives.
02:40That's what we do.
02:42Over 13,000 motocross jumps.
02:47Oh, it's going to be fun.
02:48Oh, it's great.
02:50We replicated this ramp in England in a quarry.
02:52We filled the quarry with cardboard boxes, which were there to catch the motorcycle.
02:57The reason why we did that is so that Tom could simulate the jump.
03:01How fast should I go off?
03:03What distance do I travel?
03:05We built models of different ramps at different angles to calculate what Tom's trajectory would be.
03:11We have to be able to consistently predict where Tom is going to be in three-dimensional space.
03:18We're going to have a GPS chip on me.
03:20And that recorded every single one of Tom's jumps, along with his ground speed, whether there was a headwind, whether there was a crosswind.
03:28And by doing this multiple times, we were able to get a consistent set of data.
03:33So then each take, we can see what height I am.
03:36So this way, we can set drones and cameras in places where I can go right into close-up.
03:40Rule one, don't hit me with the drone.
03:44Because if we do it all, we don't capture it right.
03:46What's the point?
03:47Let's do it, guys.
03:47Ready?
03:48Yep.
03:49Always wear my earplugs so I don't hear myself scream.
03:52We are ready, ready.
03:56Three, two, one!
03:59The key is me hitting certain speeds and being consistent with that.
04:03There's no speedometer, so I do it by sound and feel of the bike.
04:09And then as I depart the bike, I'm choosing the wind that's hitting me here, and I'm cupping my chest.
04:15That will give me lift.
04:16Thank you all very much for your help, guys.
04:31Thank you.
04:31Thank you.
04:31Thank you.
04:46We're here in Norway.
04:52We've been constructing this ramp over a number of months.
04:55Everything here has to be brought in by helicopter.
04:58Engineers and technicians.
05:00It's incredible what they've done.
05:01This is masterful.
05:03Today is day one of principal photography, and we are starting in classic mission form with the biggest stunt in the film.
05:10What we're doing here is I'm just doing jumps just to warm up the body.
05:13Let's do it just to get my track going and make sure everything's working all right.
05:19I'll try not to smile.
05:22Basically, when he gets down and puts a parachute on and goes and does the bike jump,
05:26he'll actually know the weather conditions in this area, in the valley, and on the ground.
05:34And then he has to safely deploy a parachute.
05:37Now he's in a rock bowl with walls all around him, and he's got to fly out of it.
05:43Of course, you know, when something's been done for the first time, you can't help but worry a little bit about how it's really going to turn out.
05:55With a jump like this, the challenge is finding the cameras, it's the amount of preparation, and then it's weather.
06:00You want the light to be right, you want the clouds to be right.
06:03Misty, but not foggy.
06:04This weather right here is exactly what we're looking for.
06:06He is about 10 minutes away from coming up here, landing, and doing the actual stunt.
06:11Sounds good.
06:12We're in motion.
06:13See you soon.
06:14Now we're going to set the frames of this camera ship with the drone just to verify everything, then we're going to get ready.
06:19You know, the only things you really have to avoid while doing a stunt like this is serious injury or death.
06:27Here we go.
06:28You're riding a motorcycle, which is pretty dangerous, on top of a ramp that's elevated off the ground.
06:33So if you come off the ramp, that's going to be very bad.
06:36You're falling.
06:38If you don't get a clean exit from the bike and you get tangled up with it, if you don't open your parachute, you're not going to make it.
06:49Three, two, one, eight!
07:19I saw a canopy.
07:25I saw a canopy.
07:26I saw a canopy.
07:26I saw a canopy.
07:27I saw a canopy.
07:27I saw a canopy, doctor.
07:27Great.
07:30Woo!

07:35Woo!
07:36Woo!
07:37To you guys.
07:38Thank you.
07:38Doctor, now, John, that was absolutely beautiful.
07:41It's like nothing wrong.
07:42The bike went away.
07:44I mean, the track was perfect.
07:46It was actually, it was great.
07:47Thanks, man, I think I can hold to the bike a little longer.
07:52Action!
07:55Pretty much the biggest stunt in cinema history.
08:00Tom Cruise just rode a motorcycle off a cliff six times today.
