Tom Cruise hangs on an A400M
At least the Fail didn't disappoint. Although "moving" is of course what the aircraft is doing, one cannot but help think that "flying" is the more accurate verb.

So when did he change his brown shoes for black boots?

His other film is out BTW with the Puma landing in central London.. it's called Edge of Tomorrow
It's a man versus aliens in a sort of Groundhog Day format. |

WUH.
That made oi larf that did! BV |
if he does all his stunts, why is there another guy with same suit, trousers and haircut shown in a few shots ? just asking. pp
|
Those airborne shots are not Cruise. The shoes and hair are different.
Imagine underwriting that stunt!! |
So who did all of his flying stunts in Top Gun?
If that lucky sod actually got to fly in a Tomcat.... :{ |
When the US Navy flew TC in an F-14 it was by a pilot who had the nickname
Bozo . Alas, I cannot find the You Tube link I had bookmarked, but there are several parts on YT of a film on it of how they made Top Gun. V1 |
Going by the title of this thread I was looking for a noose !!!!

IIRC Mr Cruise had trouble keeping his lunch down when they took him up in an F-14 for real.
So the decision was made to back project all close ups. Unlike the Froggies when they made Le Chevaliers du Ciel. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0092099/trivia In preparation for his role, Tom Cruise was allowed to take 3 rides in the F-14 Tomcat. He vomited during the first trip but was okay during the other two. Anthony Edwards is the only actor who didn't vomit while in the fighter jets. Go the Goose-man. Obviously no-one told them about the little trick of switching to 100 per cent oxygen... |
TC cannot pull in Miramar's mess
@ Tartare
According to the late aviation photographer George Hall's Top Gun book ,TC was a tad miffed at not being able pull in the officers club at Happy Hour as all the girls were after chatting up the aircrews! He funnily enough putting together book at Miramar while they were making the movie by going up with the F-14 crews and using his own camera pod approved for mounting on F-14, F/A-18 and other fast jets In the book there is quite a few movie stills and he went up in one of the chase planes AND he was up on the peak with 'Rat' the Ops Officer of Top Gun, choreographing the flights. 'Rat' became CINCPAC :) Cheers |

Unfortunately 100% oxygen doesn't stop airsickness. |
No shame in chundering your guts out in the back of a fast jet - been there, done that.

I had to larf, I saw a local tweet saying he was at Wittering today.
But then I just saw him in Stamford, leaving Superdrug :eek:. (.. in all fairness to Tom, he might not be here for more high octane filming - he may have heard that Mary Berry is also in town today) |
Didn't they give him a little bit of G training before taking him up?
Or was it just the sickness because of the flying its self and not so much the G-force? |
