Cruise had fun pushing The Late Late Show host Corden out of his comfort zone. Most notably, while promoting Mission: Impossible – Fallout, Cruise took Corden skydiving. During that experience, Corden was visibly terrified, jumping off the plane in a tandem parachute jump, while Cruise jumped solo with him. Corden finally admitted he never jumped off a plane again. However, Cruise seems to have found a new way to scare the host of the nightly talk show.

A new video from The Late Late Show with James Corden shows Cruise flying a fighter jet and Corden as his passenger. Cruise begins with a light flight, but as another plane approaches, a simulated fight begins, leaving Corden terrified. As the video continues, they take a break before switching planes and taking off in a set of fighter jets. Watch the video of the Top Gun experience at the Late Late Show below:
Cruise holds several pilot’s licenses, making him more than qualified to fly the planes seen in the video. Cruise used the same skills for Top Gun: Maverick, where he flew real planes for the movie.
Top Gun: Maverick is now in theaters after numerous delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
