Tom Cruise is once again performing his own stunts, even though he's still dealing with a stunt-gone-wrong from six months ago.
The "Mission Impossible" star revealed he jumped 25,000 feet from a plane in a death-defying stunt for the upcoming film in the action franchise.
"Just one shot. At 25,000 feet. At 200 mph. At dusk," "Mission: Impossible– Fallout" director Christopher McQuarrie wrote on Instagram alongside a picture of Cruise.

"Dropping in," Cruise wrote.
The actor is still healing from a broken ankle he suffered six months ago on the "Mission Impossible" set.
