Tom Cruise is the first actor to do a HALO jump on camera. The stunt involved a lot of risk. High Altitude Low Opening (HALO) requires extensive training and coordination from the skydivers. However, Tom Cruise did the stunt by himself. The stunt involved freefalling from a height of 25000 feet and then deploying the parachute at a low altitude. Despite the risks, Tom’s proactiveness in taking on such an extensive stunt shows he is one of the best action heroes.
