Hi everyone! What grade (out of 10) would you give this video?
comment posted 2 months ago 💀
Please they haven't invented a score high enough for Tom cruise yet 🙏
@@I_Am_Bowi im shocked too
8. minus 2 points for the obvious complete separation of Tom Cruise as he slides away into thin air making it impossible for him to somehow levitate back to the rock and cling to the edge. ua-cam.com/video/T3u19n9PCyk/v-deo.html
10/10
Well done Ben Stiller. You nailed this scene.
exactly what I was thinking
Who's that
I don't know who this Ben Stiller is but I always thought Tom Crooze was a great stunt double.
Yes, and his movie "Oblivion" was one of the best in Stiller's carrier!!!
Tom croooze
I LOVED this scene as a kid, made me think Tom Cruise was the coolest guy in the world. I'm 32 and still think that
Me too
have you seem his video thanking the fans for watching top gun maverick while jumping down a plane and sky diving? he is actually a fucking legend
Me tooo....
Loved that movie , I wanted to buy a motorcycle like him and do some stunts like him
Tom Cruise is still the coolest guy in the world.
Tom Cruise literally at his peak!
He still is
and Keith Campbell!
He hit his peak in Top Gun Maverick
@@gulabjamun6897 No, if he did his plane would have exploded.
that is funny! 😂😉 love TC
Fun fact. This scene was not scripted. The crew just happened to record Tom's morning workout and the director decided to inlcude it in the film.
lol
I mean… rock climbing is his actual workout routine so… 🤷
@@polakpolak4879 i mean yeah, but there was a nicer way of saying that.
Mofo looking for zenu
Amazing how many people fell for this …
He was banging in his 20s, smashing it in his 30s, rocking it in his 40s, cool in his 50s n still continuing in his 60s. The fella is an ageless legend 🙌🏻❤
Showing that Ethan Hunt is a kind of man that exercises with death defying tasks even on his day offs was a master cinema trick to develop his character. Just because of this very scene I always saw him in the sequels as a man fearlessly giving his all in every single task he does, and it really sauced up those movies, specially MI3 and Rogue Nation.
🤯
*especially
MI3 is FANTASTIC, Rouge Nation too🥵🤌🏼
And as Cinemawins pointed out, stuff like this is a breeze compared to what Ethan Hunt does normally, so he's having fun
and he also flyes in top gun jests, the man, the myth, the legend
That glasses scene was so iconic I did that loads of times play acting
Glasses and cruise, is like action and cruise or running and cruise.
Anything visually cool he re-iconised it all and carried it off.
With real Oakleys? Pricey.
@@BillClay88 I bought these Oakley Metal X after the movie came out, wore them almost every day for years. Still got them in my Drawer. Would do anything for them to make them again.
MI -2 was the first movie i had watched in theatre. This opening sequence stuck in my head since then.
Same. The Souca-Nana song stuck in my head too. 😭😂
MI2 is the worst movie in the MI franchise. Probably because they were trying to make Ethan Hunt too much like James Bond.
@@spacemann1425 MI2 is the best movie in the franchise besides Fallout
@@swarnavsinha6442 bruh💀
@@spacemann1425 I wouldn't say the worst because it's still a good movie. But it's indeed the weakest entry in the franchise.
I still can't believe How cool and epic this scene was.
This whole movie was cool
Is it me or we don't usually see scenes with this kind of sunny weather or was it because of some camera setting?
As a kid, this scene sky-rocketed my phobia of height😭🙏
Same
Haha bro that is true.
So did the sales of Oakley
For me it was Cliffhanger. First movie that scared me with the fear of heights.

There was no risk to Tom in this scene. Leonard Nimoy was watching from below wearing rocket boots.
Nimoy
@@rindjint3205 corrected. Thank you
Gold comment, i have a soft spot for st 5, despite its flaws it was not a bad film as everyone made it out to be.
Exactly. And with a Marsh Melon in his pocket.
Wasn't he in the original MI series?
For those wondering if Tom Cruise really did this....
In a 2000 interview with UKC, Mission: Impossible 2 cameraman and experienced climber Earl Wiggins broke down the sequence. He explained that Cruise trained for Mission: Impossible 2's rock climbing scene with stunt double Ron Kauk, who would also escort him into position for each shot. The climbing was filmed over five days, while winches were also used to get the star in and out of position for the scene. For the moment where Hunt - who has "died" in several Mission movies - slips down and holds on to the overhang, Wiggins revealed Cruise's double Keith Campbell did that particular stunt.
"Hunt - who has "died" in several Mission movies" huh.. what?
so he didn't is the answer. it is called video editing. young people be brave but don't be stupid and throw your life away
So this stunt double does the dangerous work like going to Oprah or the Oscars🤨
They filmed the slip scene in reverse
other fun fact: I grew up in the town where Ron Kauk lived. He handed out Cliff™ bars every Halloween.
STILL...the best 'SELF - DESTRUCT MESSAGE' of the entire franchise...
I loved this scene when i was 16, i m 39 and i m still loving this scene and movie. Tom Cruise is always in his peak time !
I just appreciate how he has always puts his body on the line for the audience to make cool scenes like this
He was in no danger whatsoever
^ liar shut up
@@TheNeonRabbit Not in this scene, but he does generally do crazy shit without a stunt double. Like the recent movie where he is holding onto an airplane as it takes off or when he trained to hold his breath five minutes for an underwater shoot.
he got paid
@@Bryce3189 Same as every other actor but they're not doing the things he's doing in his 60s
Good old times. This movie was the first DVD I played in my PS2. At that time, DVD players still aren´t as common as today, and PS2 as both DVD Player and game machine was a must.
And, funny enough, the PS3 was the cheapest bluray player on release! If you were lucky enough to get one...
Haha same for the PS3! Blu Ray
this was the first movie I watched at the cinema, it was with my father, he came home from work and we left
It was mine as well, I watched it with my elder brother. My brother's college exams got over and I was in school.
This scene was and will always be epic. 😎🔥👍🏻
This scene was godly beautiful and the music 😘.
Not many people remember it TBH for some reason i still do
Yessssss the soundtrack to this movie was incredible!! Shoutout Heitor Pereira, the guitarist
Coolest intro ever. Really summarises the character.
I love how we got not 1 but 2 scoffs followed by a head shake. Genius.
The double-scoff head-shake is Oscar-worthy.
The legendary Tom cruise and did no one notice that yet another legend has given the music for this movie - Hans Zimmer. The guitar in the background is still timeless.
So everyone just remembers seeing this scene as a kid huh. Probably most iconic scene of MI films
Ya we're all old now sadge
Real life footage of Tom Cruise, climbing to the top of his career metaphorically speaking.
"Your mission if you choose to accept, to become the best actor in the world. Your marriages will self-destruct in 30 years."
🍷👍 Also Tom - YES YESSS!!! OH BABY YEAAAHHH!!!
Not really metaphorically when he actually did this lol
Hey 30 years isn't bad for a marriage
Watched it in the year 2000. Me and my friends thought that this scene must have done in a green screen for sure. 19 years fast forwarded saw a behind the scene of this. 😮
Plot twist: this is actual footage of Tom climbing back to the movie set after the motorcycle jump.
🤣
The best hair he’s ever had in a Mission film
He definitely got the great hair genes, lucky bastard😂. But yeah, on this one his hair is unbeatable.
This movie resonates with me cuz growing up when I was 6 in 2000, listening to Limp Bizkit and loved these movies this year. M:I2 really sits w me and will be for the rest of my life.
It’s absolutely crazy how much movies influence us as individuals and society itself. This scene definitely inspired some people to take up rock climbing, and some of them may have made careers in that industry, whether it be a supervisor/belay guy at a indoor rock wall, a employee at a outdoors/mountaineering store, or really athletic rock climbers out there pushing the limits.
Can you belive this MI 2 start fliming in late 1999 !!! It 24 years ago , 23 years theartical released
this just shows what Ethan hunt is all about, really solidifies his character.
Exactly. WHY is this even in the film? It contains nothing plot related other than demonstrating that Ethan Hunt has zero value for his own life, which is inconsistent with all other self-preservation and important things he does.
@@dalauder true, it is kind of ironic
@@dalauder bc it´s fun to watch maybe?
@@dalauder if you ever watched Cinemawins video on this movie, he points out that this makes sense for the character
Doing stuff like this is a breeze compared to his job normally, and also allows him to train for when he might need to use these skills in missions later (ex. During the infiltration on the island, and in Fallout where he begins rock climbing to get to the detonator)
Looks like they copied some stuff from Point Break. Or maybe were inspired by it
I'm too old for this now... my heart can't take it anymore... it was fine back then when the movie first released..
Sound mix from Limp Bizkit is really awesome, brings back so many memories.
stop showing your age
Tom cruise movies are really a blast to see I enjoy a lot of them!
This scene and the bike scene at the end of the movie makes this one of my all time Favs MI films. Oh also Metallica sound track😎
Best opening sequence for a action fil m in decades❤💣
This was such a hyped up scene for the movie, it became almost iconic
It did become iconic, not almost...
You guys remember when toms stunts used to be rock climbing or something like that instead of driving a motorcycle off of a damn cliff into a basejump? 😂
I'd much rather jump off a cliff with a motorcycle than rock climb like this
Exactly, I dont understand what is special about a motorcycle basejump (compared to a regular basejump of course)
@@andik70 One is done with a motorcycle, the other is not. Thats it 😂
@@andik70 Legit the actual difference in safety is minimal. Like the only danger to the motorcycle is if you are unable to properly get off the motorcycle mid air which is unlikely to happen
free climbing would be a greater rush... greater fear...
This movie has the best background score of all MI movies. Hans Zimmer ❤
Nah. MI 1 was the best. Danny Elfman.
nahh not at all
Man after this scene, every kid in my school started buying Oakley's.
Sigh... Those were the days... Oakley's, jordans, limp Bizkits, Eminem, blink 182. Those were my highschool days.
Yup back in 2000. Loved those Triumph bikes, Oakley's, the cars and of course Metallica - I Disappear.
This was the one of the coolest movie that had come out back then.
I remember I was only excited for the Matrix. And later MI2 i was so keen. Had the cassette with the songs.
I remember watching this & Gladiator often on a VCD later.
I remember watching this one in the theater, was just a kid, I liked it a lot. Recently rewatched, still like it😂.
toms hair and look, absolute best..
I am profesional rock climber 5 years, this is downright comical to watch. 😂😂
This scene will always be part of the highlight reel of my childhood memories.
I love the Limp Bizkit M.I. version, just so damn good!!!
Diarrhoea sounds a lot better than Limp Bizkit.
@@fabio78 LB was the shit man. You’re just a hater.
No one likes limp bizkit....and if you do you should not tell people. That's sad.
@@Bryce3189 That's not true. People like Bizkit.
@@Bryce3189huh? Then why are they famous?
Masterpiece! One of my all time faves.... without a doubt!
what a beautiful face Claudia...without a doubt!
My heart beats so fast by just watching him climbing
The Hans Zimmer score on this film was amazing. People credit MI-3 for this franchise success and often hate this one. But i think this is the breakout out for the franchise.
Yes, he's great although in this scene, 2 existing songs were used that weren't related to Hans Zimmer
MI:3 is boring and generic, this one is stupid but fun
Not sure why MI2 gets so much hate. It’s a pretty awesome John Woo action flick.
It’s only weakness is being the least amazing part of an almost unnaturally amazing series of action movies.
It's not hate, it's just that when ranking all the MI movies, one has to be at the bottom. For many of us fans, MI2 is that spot.
I honestly rank it above 3. Three felt like a run of the mill TV spy episode
one of my favorites from the whole series so far
It is not, and you can totally watch the whole series without and it wouldn´t make any diference, try and you will see.
I was 11 years old and I was so blown away by this intro. I thought Tom cruise was the epitome of cool lol. I adopted the characters persona when I left the theatre. I even asked my mother to buy me similar glasses for my birthday. Nostalgia.
I loved this movie as much as the other ones in the series.... i thought Tom was fantastic and super stylish.
My favorite installment in the series, but I love all of them. This one just had a lot of elements that made it somehow better.
Like the epic bike chase?
The best one is MI:III the opening scene is even better than this one, even if it seems impossible.
Hans Zimmers music. Elevates this above all the rest. It separates this from all the rest
@Elias Vivancos yah I think 2, 3, and 4 are maybe the best, but I do really like 5 and 6. Excited about MI 7 and 8, Dead Reckoning.
@Elias Vivancos Yah I love part 3 too. Damn good movie, and maybe the best antagonist of the franchise in Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Tom Cruise is impressive.
But the cameraman did it with one hand and of course, while holding the camera.
helicopter shot
Love this movie - incredible soundtrack as well
The first time I saw this scene in a movie theater, and even today when I see it again, I tense up and my palms sweat. I don't know if Tom Cruise really did this climb for real, or if it's just a visual effect, but I'm always impressed.
He did climb, although there were safety wires
@@tk36864 He had cables hooked to him but they were digitally removed.
At 1:24 he actually falls off, but they cut to another shot of him still sliding. This must've taken so many takes.
The first time you saw this in theaters no one gave a single fuck. We still dont.
@@Bryce3189
Thank you for taking part of your time to tell me this, your opinion changed my life.
One of the best intro scene ever! Period!
Greatest Mission Impossible movie and for its time. Movie like this are not made anymore, its so sad!
Each time I watch this scene, gives me a goose bumb.
Such an awesome scene and the movie is a major guilty pleasure
My top 3 favorite movies of all time. Went to see that movie 4 times when it was released.
what top 3 of all time? You need to watch more, Tom Cruise alone has 7 other movies that are classic in fact all except the two with Nicole kidman.
He was distracted no offence to NK.
@@waynecanterbury2312lol facts mission impossible is easily the worst of the franchise and there is 7 movies total lol
Fell in love with the music as a kid.. and still love ❤️ it 😊
I was 8 when this movie came out and its one of my earliest memories and i watched it every snow day, i dont care what anyone says this is a great film.
3:18 camera in the reflection
Ah, the Mission Impossible series! Many, many good-to-great movies and also Mission Impossible 2!
Perfect MI Series review does not exi...
Please. Stop acting like Mission Impossible 2 is Speed 2 or Quantum of Solace.
That's impossible
Brought old memories when i watched this movie for the very first time in movie theatre.. and that music
MI2 was my fav movie when I was a kid - still Epic today
This very scene never gets old 🧓
Saw this film last summer ... Loved it
Damn!
TC must be awesome as hell to slide down a cliff, hang on by his FINGERTIPS, and then just decide to hang on by ONE HAND for no reason other than catch his breath!!
It's a good thing the camera's were there to savour the experience
My all-time favorite Mission Impossible intro!!!
Forever!!
@@nancyalger Thanks for your continuous love and support towards me ❤️
How long have you been a fan of mine??
This was one of my favourite childhood films 🙌
This makes my hands and feet sweat.
Same
I love all the MI movies but John Woo really added a certain magic to this particular film.
This M:I has a special place in my heart… and the music is the best on this one, love the touch of hard rock/metal sound guitar.
That spy music is freaking amazing!
Legendary! 🙂
I fell in love with MI franchise after this iconic scene
I fkn loved that beginning. There’s another that really gets me the opening in the first Bourne franchise the camaraderie on the boat and the body floating on the water that is life itself water and birth/Bourne. So fragile, yet so fkn capable.
Up there with the Top Gun opening scene as some of the most epic opening scenes ever
Thank you John Woo for all this magic
2:38 Goosebumps
Even the background music doesn’t want to disturb Tom.
I cant get the old Ben Stiller spoof of this out of my head when he turns to the camera. I thought I was going to see it! lol It was some movie awards show way back when.
He is absolutely amazing not only gorgeous handsome he's brave and so talented and leaves me in awe 🤭
He did absolutely freak out over China virus mask non-compliance during the filming of M:I:7, though, and flew off the handle towards his crew, which I didn't like at all, when he saw a couple of crewmembers weren't wearing masks or had them pulled down. (I'm anti-mask, myself, and quit a good paying job over it.) He should've treated them like fellow human beings, and not threatened everyone with firing and swearing at them all. Without a film crew, Mr. Cruise wouldn't be able to complete a single movie. He said he was saving the industry in Hollywood during the China virus and keeping people employed, but totally freaked out when some people weren't wearing a face diaper on set and threatened (with a lot of awful language) to fire anyone caught not complying again. I'd have quit over that outburst and treating the crew like they were disposable (and I think some people did, if I remember correctly).
@@Arnold_Rimmer hi, so can I ask in your honest opinion do you think it was fear and pressure from the government's demand and control over everybody at the time , fear if they were caught not wearing masks production would have been shut down and cost everyone their jobs .
Or is his personality that angry all the time?
I don't believe anyone has the right to speak down to anyone no matter how high up your status is in life..
Don't look down on another human being unless it's to hold out your hand to help them up🙏
@@zmaidment3383 Thanks for your continuous love and support towards me ❤️
How long have you been a fan of mine??
The music in this scene is pretty much similar to intro scene in Rainman where the car gets lowered. Both given by Hans Zimmer, so understandable.
💪True spirit.Hats off to you sir.
I don't know why but I just love this movie, the action and the soundtrack ofcourse.❤
I've always loved MI:2, I think it's the best one they ever did. Maybe cos i'm Aussie.. haha
Yes I thought the opening was really unbelievable and so well done, and I thought it was filmed in Australia 👍Aussie to
I'm so thrilled they shot it in Australia.
Perfect landscape for this movie, love it.
@@jdsk8914 Dude it was shot in Utah. And I'm Australian btw. There are scenes shot in darling harbour, Sydney, but the rock climbing scene was USA.
Though I'm a fan of the franchise, I do struggle to find much love for this instalment - but it does have its moments.
True
Awesome intro, one of the best. I also love Diehard with Vengeance opening.
I was so hyped when I have seen this scene first time and thought of buying this glasses 😀 but it was so costly for a 14 years old ... Tom is so cool
Director: nailed it
Producers: perfect
Cruise: couldn't get any better
Guy in charge of choosing music: didn't show up to work that day
3:20 I like that he is slowly and perfectly rotating his head while looking at the message.
Actually he is standing still. The camera is panning in arc when they are showing his face but the camera shouldnt pan when he is viewing the message as he is standing still.
@@kapilkumarasamy5059 I know, I was pointing it out cause its kinda silly that it moves when it shouldn't.
I remember seeing this in the theater with mum. The picture of him climbing the mountain seemed so foreign and vivid. I had to have been like 5 or 6, just wondering what kind of things adults can do in the wild unknown
Maravillosa pelicula Maravilloso actor!!!❤👏👏👏
This was a great era. The 90s had finally ended and people were waiting for where the trend would go. I had exactly the same hair and similar outfits as Cruise here, and man did it go down well with the chicks. The film's visuals, music, and Asian dramatics also felt cool and new. I must have seen it three times in the theatres.
This is my favorite MI movie! Haha this intro could not be more fake but so cool
When it's a Tom Cruise movie, nothing is fake. Tom actually did this stunt himself, with safety harness ofcourse.
@@sanjitsiriguppi832 and he is one of the few not using stunt doubles, you are 100 right, I was referring to the fact that without harnes and ropes it would have been imposible to land from one peak to another and also stop a free fall just with your fingers, I never said it was not a real shot and enviroment, I was just talking about the physics
@@federicomuller5348 Yeah, it's not about physics. It's about being cool like you said.
I'm so glad you like it, so many people failed to see the art of MI2
@@federicomuller5348 Nope, he used a stunt stunt double for some of it, look it up.
More then 10 out of 10. Fabulous.
