10 Celebs’ Movie Roles That Nearly Ended Their Lives

7. Tom Cruise – Edge Of Tomorrow

Tom Cruise is an actor that enjoys doing his own stunts, and he usually does them pretty well. While shooting the movie Edge Of Tomorrow, Tom was sitting in the passenger seat of a car with actress Emily Blunt when things got a little out of control. Tom knew that something was about to happen as he started to tell Emily to brake, but when she was not braking, Tom began yelling at her to brake hard.

Otherwise, the car would’ve rolled possibly injuring or even killing them both. The two were very lucky to walk away unscathed, and needless to say, Tom did not let her drive for the next scene.

She was running through a tunnel when very suddenly a fog machine malfunctioned and thick fog filled the air, leaving the actress unable to see or breathe properly.
