On Camera, Narrow Escape For Pillion As Bike Crashes Into Stream
If you thought only Tom Cruise could push the limits with his stunts in Mission: Impossible films, strap up because you are in for a ride. A Vietnamese man left social media flabbergasted with his brilliantly timed jump to escape a bike crash. And the move was straight out of a Hollywood action flick. In a video shared on X, three men are seen riding a motorcycle, which approaches a bridge at high speed. At the crossroads, a van appears from the other side, and the rider loses control of the vehicle. To avoid hitting the van, he decides to plunge the bike into the stream flowing underneath the bridge. Since the two-wheeler nearly brushed the bridge's fence, the third man jumped just in the nick of time. He held on to the iron fence, pulling off a miraculous save, reminding people on the internet of something they had only seen in the movies. He's definitely Tom Cruise's stunt double! — The Figen (@TheFigen_) May 31, 2025 Many in the comments section praised his presence of mind. One of the users said the man in the video "pulled a Mission: Impossible move", while the one seated in the middle was "still buffering". That guy pulled a Mission Impossible move while the dude in the middle is still buffering ???? — Nikkhil (@nikkhil23) June 1, 2025 "Bro doesn't have reflexes. Reflexes have him," said another. Bro doesn't have reflexes. Reflexes have him. — Sunderdeep - Volklub (@volklub) May 31, 2025 "He was really smooth. Didn't want to get his feet wet," read another comment. — The Pied Piper for X (@piedpiperofx2) May 31, 2025 In February, a video of a skydiver suffering a mid-air seizure during a free fall went viral. The clip showed the skydiver losing control and spiralling uncontrollably while unconscious. But moments later, a fellow skydiver-instructor manoeuvred through the air to reach him. The rescuer then stabilised the skydiver's descent and deployed their parachute just in time, averting a fatal disaster.

While two of the riders go down with the bike, the third pulls off an epic save by grabbing onto the railing just in time to avoid falling. His perfect timing and quick reflexes 'impressed" many viewers. So much so that some of them were reminded of Tom Cruise. He's definitely Tom Cruise's stunt double! — The Figen (@TheFigen_) May 31, 2025 A user shared the video on X, jokingly calling the last rider the stunt double of Tom Cruise. Many others chimed in with funny comments, while some expressed concern for the other two riders. One wrote, 'I'm actually worried about the other two that drowned," while another added, 'That guy pulled a Mission Impossible move, but the dude in the middle is still buffering." 'He could totally be in Fast and Furious, too," read a comment. A user quipped, 'Oh haha lol. They didn't even try. Just said, Let's go for a swim." Details about the date and location of the incident remain unclear. However, according to Grok, the bike fall occurred in Vietnam, where the riders performed stunt-like actions for social media attention. The video sparked debate online, with many questioning whether the incident was accidental or staged. A user asserted, 'It wasn't a performance. The motorbike made a manoeuvre to avoid colliding with the van. This resulted in the motorbike heading straight towards a body of water. The person hopped off the motorbike to avoid falling into the water."

Man cheats death in bridge accident that looks straight out of a movie: ‘Tom Cruise's stunt double'
In a scene that feels straight out of a high-octane action thriller, a man's death-defying leap from a moving motorcycle has left the internet stunned. The viral video, which surfaced on the social media platform X, captures a moment of extraordinary reflex and sheer luck, as the man narrowly escapes a potentially fatal fall during a harrowing accident on a bridge. (Also read: Chhattisgarh man cheats death, jumps from 3-storey building, gets electrocuted then throws bricks) The clip begins with three men riding together on a motorcycle as they speed towards a bridge. Suddenly, a van swerves into view, causing the motorcyclist to lose control. The two-wheeler crashes into the side rail of the bridge, and within moments, it begins to tip over the edge. Just as the vehicle plunges towards what appears to be a brook or shallow river below, the man seated at the rear displays incredible presence of mind and agility—he jumps off the back, rolling safely away from the edge in a split second. What makes the moment even more astonishing is the composure and perfect timing with which the man reacts. As the motorcycle vanishes into the water, he lands on his feet, dusts himself off, and walks away—visibly shaken, but miraculously unharmed. Watch the clip here: The viral video was shared by the popular X handle The Figen, with the caption: 'He's definitely Tom Cruise's stunt double!' Since being uploaded, the clip has garnered over 4 million views and has sparked a wave of reactions, comments, and speculative theories. While many viewers praised the man's lightning-fast reflexes, others drew comparisons to jaw-dropping stunts from big-budget action films. (Also read: Man miraculously escapes unscathed after getting trapped between two buses. Video) One user remarked, 'That jump was better than anything I've seen in Mission Impossible.' Another said, 'He probably unlocked a new level in real life.' A third added, 'That man deserves a role in an action film right now.' Others marvelled at his presence of mind under pressure. 'That wasn't luck, that was instinct,' one user stated. Someone else commented, 'Physics textbook just got a new example under 'momentum'.' Adding to the humour, a user quipped, 'That motorbike gave up, but he didn't.' Meanwhile, another simply said, 'Give this man a cape already.'
