Hollywood actor Tom Cruise has revealed that he accidentally crashed straight into the world’s tallest building in Dubai while shooting Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol.

The 49-year-old actor, who plays American agent, Ethan Hunt, in the spy series, admitted that whilst filming a flight sequence 2,717 feet off the ground while scaling the Burj Khalifa tower, he crashed head-first into the building. “There’s this bit where I come flying off the building, running perpendicular to it. I was thinking, ‘When the hell do I turn back to the building so I don’t go headfirst into it?’

I came banging into it, and I can literally feel the fear emanating from the crew, and I’m like ‘No, No, I’m okay, I’m okay,’” he said.
