Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol

Stunt work is one of the most dangerous professions in the world. Professional stunt people risk their lives to create the perfect on-screen shot or sequence and are the unsung heroes of the film industry. There has been quite an argument for the Oscars to create a category that honors stunts, but this has yet to come to fruition.

One of her most impressive stunts is in the very first fight scene in the sequel, The Matrix Reloaded, where Trinity tackles a group of security guards. Moss performs the ‘scorpion kick’, where she leans forward and swings one leg over her head. The kick was invented for the film by choreographer Yuen Woo-ping and took six months for Moss to master.Her dedication was worth it, as it looks completely badass on screen.

In the final climax, where the film’s villain tries to escape on a helicopter, Statham clambers onto it and grabs hold. The two men fight each other in the air, and here, Statham is actually hanging off that helicopter. All that was stopping him from imminent death was a belt and wire, but Statham was adamant about doing the scene without CGI, thinking it would look better.Not available

In the film’s opening scene, Craig chases a bomb maker on foot, which sees him jump onto a construction crane two hundred feet in the air. Craig physically fights his opponent while balancing on the crane, with open ground far below them, and even makes the large jump from one crane to another look effortless. If there was ever any doubt that Craig was the perfect new Bond, this stunt dispelled it completely.

In the movie's opening sequence, Indy is chased by a giant boulder after trying to steal a Golden Idol from a temple. Ford had to outrun the boulder himself, and luckily, he was quick on his feet. The large boulder was made out of wood, plaster, and fiberglass, and a mechanical arm was in place to slow down the boulder if needed, but it still could have done some considerable damage.
