there's no one doing it like you're doing it. you're hanging off the side of the plane and i've seen this on the news, but you really did it. >> yeah. >> jimmy: you don't have to do that. [ laughter ] you could put like a dummy on there, a mannequin and then have a wide shot and go, oh, yeah, look at that. >> i know. [ light laughter ] >> jimmy: you did it. >> yeah, we did it. >> jimmy: and how many takes did you do? >> we did eight takes. >> jimmy: so, if you don't know the story, there's a giant cargo plane. >> a-400 airbus. >> jimmy: i mean, major plane. [ light laughter ] first of all, i'm afraid of the plane. i wouldn't even go on the plane. [ light laughter ] you're hanging off the side of it. i'm not spoiling it for everybody. it's in the trailer. and it takes off. >> yeah. >> jimmy: how fast can you come down? like say you go up. >> you know, they strapped me on the side of the plane beforehand. then they start the engine. then we taxi. then we go down the runway. and i remember telling the pilot, i said listen -- i got to work with a test-pilot. i'm a pilot. i love flying airplanes. >> jimmy: sure. >> i'm like, look, the angle of attack, i want to make sure my

legs are hitting against the fuselage. he's just kind of smiling at me the whole time. [ light laughter ] i'm like, "really, i need my legs to hit the fuselage because we set the camera up on the airplane. so you see the ground going away." he said, "oh yeah, that won't be a problem." then the first take we're going down the runway and it was everything to keep my feet on the steps because i was almost slapped against the fuselage going down the runway we were going so fast. and it was a little intense. [ light laughter ] i'm going and -- there going, maybe this wasn't such a good idea. [ light laughter ] too late now. i can't tell everybody. i got the whole crew on the plane. >> jimmy: i'm so happy i'm a a late night tv talk show host. i'm so happy. i love my desk. [ laughter ] i love my job so much. i mean, but you're getting hit with jet fuel? >> jet fuel and, you know. i just didn't want to get hit by a bird or any particles, you know. that would be bad. no seriously, i got hit by a a little stone about that big. we were going so fast, luckily it hit my rib. i thought it broke my rib, when i was on the side. i was just thinking, thank god it didn't hit my face. i didn't tell my family or

friends or anyone i was doing it beforehand. but, look i do it because it's entertaining to you all. [ laughter ] you know? i want to entertain you. >> jimmy: i think they are going to find out. >> i want to entertain you. [ laughter ] >> jimmy: one of the biggest movies of all time. you could have told me, dad. but then you do this thing where also where you're also under water -- and again, i'm not spoiling anything. it's "mission: impossible," so you're underwater and flying off a plane. some of the best stunts i've ever seen. >> thank you. >> jimmy: and great cast as always. we love simon pegg. and so, you're under water and cracking this type of security system thing. but you actually went -- you did training to hold your breath for six minutes? >> yeah. over six minutes for free diving. so that -- because the takes are really long. it's the longest, you know, underwater sequence i've ever done. the way the director did it, it was like i had to hold -- you had to train beyond it, because when you go to shoot i have to take the regulator out, get on the side of the set under water, then the camera comes in place. and then we call action. then it's just very long takes. you'll see in the movie they're just really, really long takes. we wanted to do it practical.

>> jimmy: i mean, that's got to -- that's got to screw up your system, doesn't it? >> it was deathful. >> jimmy: did your body go, hey, what's your problem, dude? [ laughter ] >> actually it was really intense. yeah, yeah. >> jimmy: can you just chill out? >> going from the airplane -- it was also cold in the airplane. so it was freezing up there. >> jimmy: oh, my gosh. >> i'm wearing a suit like, you know cary grant in "north by northwest."
