He is an ESTP self -preservation 8. Reason why he gets typed as ISTP is that self-pres 8 is the most inteoverted subtype of enneagram 8 and the most 5ish of all enneagram (ofc except 5)
It's always been obvious to me that Tom Cruise has strong Ni, either lead or secondary. Just the intensity he has and the characters he plays often have super strong Ni too.
Ni child can take their ni so irresponsibly though, like a child. Ni for ENJs is like their map they have to follow, Ni for ISPs is like their sword, their actions can be their most defining character.
@@BehindRealityAlthough I think the Ni in child position + Ne blindspot (manifests as tunnel-visioned Ni) seems pretty evident here (Arnold Schwarzenegger and Elon Musk are other examples of ISTPs). Which is why ENFJ seems less likely. ISTPs that get a better grasp with their oppositional function (Fe), they can flip on their axis and become ENFJ like. But of course the difference ISTPs can get socially drained and needs to recharge their social battery. While ENFJs of course they are going to need time to recharge just like everyone else, would still get their energy kick in for helping people and being social utility for the sake of it. ISTPs would love to be involved in the community as always, but needs to dive into their own internal headspace solely for the sake of it. ISTPs being cognitive introverts by default they need to be immersed in their own headspace while being disassociative from the external world. Cognitive extroverts by default are fully immersed and reactive to the external world. Se for ESPs and ENJs just manifests as for the sake of experiencing things. While Se auxiliary for ISPs manifests as the fun in being in those shoes as part of the experience, since Se has a more authoritative influence for ISPs in contrast to ESPs and ENJs. If that makes sense?
The analysis and insights presented in this video are brilliant. There is no way Tom Cruise is an ISTP; zero possibility. I think you made this clear, and I agree with your conclusions. Thank you.
Cruise comes off as almost manipulative here. This doesn't seem like ISTP behavior but I do wonder how much he has been changed by the religious stuff.
Can you plleeeease do ian hecox?? from smosh. I think hes an istp but my friends think hes an enfp i dont think so AT ALL. Also i think he might be intp too. Its hard to differentiate between intp vs istp i think.
Yeah I mean his first paycheck he paid for his sister's college education. Like that feels like what ENFJ will do. Sometimes ENFJ dont care about ourselves that much. We dont really care to celebrate our birthday even. I dont plan anything usually. But on people's birthday i will do something for them. Weirdly more satisfied to do something for others that ourselves.
@@ThinkMoreDeeply to me it is because Any one who can see he's entp without getting tricked by his dry persona or how others type him as istp must know what they're doing
Which is why im not to keen on celebrity typing. But surprisingly you're not too far off, but ESTP is looking to be more likely. Seems to have a more sensing-feeling (SeFe/SiFi) preference over an intuitive-feeling (NeFe/NiFi) one in contrast to Tupac (ENTP). Sensing-feeling comes off more intense, like laser-focus, while intuitive-feeling appears more cooler in contrast with the emotional landscape, like butter spreading on bread. 50 cent made a good distinguish between the two.
@@OrangeEnjoyerthat’s what I thought. Ppl tend to read everything everyone says gives away their type but it depends on the situation and many variables.
It depends on the Fe user. Not all people of the same personailty type act exactly the same it's a lot more nuanced then that. If what you're saying was allways the case then everyone would essentially just be cookie cutter copies of each other.
Fe users can be willing to sacrifice nice soft athmospheres in order to enforce a "rule" that is important in their eyes (e.g., "it is not okay to treat people badly because of their religious beliefs")
@@dianadias3if they percieve the other person to have crossed a line then yes. Cruise is obviously an unusual example, he's an unusual person. But being EFJ does not mean the person is a 100% social star or doesn't get into confrontations. There is soooo much nuance to MBTI, if I saw this video some years ago it might've been somewhat unexpected to me but with time I have learned a lot about different ways functions and types are expressed. The latest Personality Hacker Podcast series about different kinds of every function is very good in showing this.
@@patrykj547Some key differentiations between Ni and Ne. Ne knows a little about a lot, while Ni knows a lot about a little. Ne shares information, while Ni gathers information. Ne is a broad spectrum of external possibilities, while Ni is one internal conclusion. Ne is good at producing words, while Ni struggles to verbalize thoughts. Ne is more impulsive, while Ni users prefer structure or planning. Extraverted iNtuition (Ne) allows us to find patterns, make sense of abstract ideas, and generate concepts. It’s a forward-looking function where Ne-users can branch out a single idea into multiple possibilities. Ne is an expanding perceiving function. Introverted Intuition (Ni) is a function that helps see theoretical patterns, make sense of abstract ideas, and generate a profound possibility. But what makes it different is that being introverted, Ni solidifies a massive amount of information and reduces them into a more refined and profound concept. Ni is a deductive perceiving function. They both see patterns and create "webs" using "unrelated" patterns. Honestly, Ni does this more if you are making the argument that one function does this more than the other
This is a good video to prove why Tom is not an ISTP, but I did have trouble connecting Tom's rant to Ni and Fe. It did seem more Ne and Fi to me. The way he would say, "Come on, let's go!" seemed like Te to me.

You guys should do Christian Bale, who is also often typed as ISTP on the internet...

So he's an ENFJ right?
Yes, the whole packed action he carry, comes from the developed tertiary Se.

You need to do a video on the difference between ENTJs and INTJs, and how to tell which one you are! Please!!
This is great, please do bill burr next, he sounds like ISTP but i'm not so sure
Please do an analyze on Lady gaga's mbti type 🙏 I'm really struggling to know If she's Isfp or Infj.
can you do a series on the mbti of famous political figures and presidents?
trying to stay out of politics but thanks for the suggestion!!

Ha! Interviewer: "People say this about you." Me: "Okay. Who cares?"
Definitely not istp.
Tom Cruise is Amazing
Type eminem as an entp (or at least ntp/sfj) and I'm a subscriber
lolol that's not quite how this works

ESFJ or ENFJ?
He’s an ISTP.
ENFJ

@@Coneman3that's the entire point though, Eric usually puts it in context
Please do Andrew Tate
ENTP. Done
@@Coneman3I can see that for his internet persona but his real personality is very different from that.
Fe is nothing like that 😂😂 it's super anti conflict
It depends on the Fe user. Not all people of the same personailty type act exactly the same it's a lot more nuanced then that. If what you're saying was allways the case then everyone would essentially just be cookie cutter copies of each other.
