Kenji MoonfieldCrispyTheory's video, Tom Cruise Kept Hitting The Floor Filming This Iconic Scene, is number two on YouTube's U.S. trending chart in Comedy, with seven million eight hundred forty-one thousand three hundred forty-two views.
Hank LedgerThe scene is the vault in the first Mission: Impossible. He's hanging on cables over a pressure-sensitive floor, and he keeps losing his balance.
Hank LedgerI've seen that one, it's the one with the sweat.
Kenji MoonfieldOkay, freeze it there. Frame one, the wire holds. Frame two, the wire has opinions. Frame three is the turning point, and it's the floor.
Hank LedgerThe floor.
Kenji MoonfieldThis morning he was accused of blocking another actor's role, and the one guy who got to him was a floor. Final score: floor, one.
Kenji MoonfieldWire, zero.
Hank LedgerSo seven million people watched a man not touch the floor, and the floor counts it as a win. Rex, any floors over there?
