‘I’m lucky because Benji is behind the computer and doing his own thing. Tom jumps off cliffs on his motorcycle, hangs from trains, and does really dangerous things. There is always that feeling that one day something could go wrong and we could lose Tom. Everyone feels that fear when there is a big stunt, but he always pulls it off.

Tom is known for his constant pursuit of entertainment and his hard work. In “Mission: Impossible: Ghost Protocol,” he climbed the Burj Khalifa in Dubai in one of the most memorable action scenes in the series. In “Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation,” he dangled from an airplane and held his breath underwater for six minutes.　In the follow-up, “Mission: Impossible: Fallout,” he performed a practical HALO jump and famously broke his ankle while jumping from one rooftop to the next.

Mission: Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part One” opens in U.S. theaters on Monday, July 10.
