Tom Cruise likes to earn his money the hard way, by doing his own stunts – including this hanging-on-by-his-fingernails number for the upcoming Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation.

As slick as Cruise may be, the star of the piece - of course - is the Airbus A400M he’s clinging to. Shot in eight takes at RAF Wittering in the UK, Cruise – hanging on the outside of the airlifter with no way to get back inside if anything went wrong - is heard to say, “I’m actually scared ****less.”

Well, would you volunteer to ride on the outside?
