Daily SumUp

Tom Cruise gave the Paris Olympics closing ceremony a Hollywood flair when he dove off the top of the Stade de France to mark the handover from the Paris Olympics to the L.A. Games in 2028.

The actor, who is currently filming “Mission: Impossible 8” in Europe, jumped off the roof of the Stade de France, the country’s biggest stadium, and landed on the stage of the Olympics closing ceremony. He was welcomed with deafening cheers and greeted by L.A. Mayor Karen Bass, who was handed the Olympic flag by Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo during the bash. He then hopped onto a motorcycle with the flag in tow and rode out of the stadium to make the symbolic delivery to L.A. As the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ “By the Way” played in the background, Cruise rode down the Paris streets, drove into a helicopter and then parachuted out of it, landing by the Hollywood sign. Once he landed at the famous landmark, Cruise attached the five Olympic rings to it.
