In classic Tom Cruise style, he began on the roof of the Stade de France, where he flashed a casual look at the camera —and took a selfie — before leaping right into the stadium, where the live closing ceremony was already taking place.
After walking through a crowd of excited Olympians and taking a few selfies, he made his way onto the stage, grabbed the Olympic flag from Simone Biles, and hopped onto his motorbike, à la Maverick of Top Gun.
At this point, the broadcast transitioned into a pre-recorded segment tracking Tom’s stunt-filled journey to LA with the Olympic flag, which involved riding through the streets of Paris and jumping out of an aircraft — presumably just a casual Sunday for the Mission: Impossible star.
