This is the interview that inspired Christian Bale in his role as Patrick Bateman in American psycho. A whole lot of smiling and laughing with nothing behind the eyes. A never ending façade.
The constant smiling/ dead eyes throughout the interview was very odd, and the lack of empathy for the passenger during the pilot story is certainly reminiscent of a sociopath. However, that story was absolutely hilarious lol
This interview was not back in the 90s. He said here that his kids were 9 and 11, and if you look up when they were born it means this interview was maybe in 2004
This is like something from Seinfeld or Curb I swear. The incessant questions about rock climbing when Cruise is there to talk about some movie probably are gold
@@preesi1403Nope ,People they just exaggerate it coz They hate him for He's a Scientologist, He knows his job;He's a trained pilot and ex-Scientologists I know em,They start their vids sayin' Tom Cruise could get away with murders implying We don't know how many murders He's done. Fuckin idiots
Hahaha I feel like I'm watching myself whenever I have told a story when I see Tom Cruise telling this story.. now I know why people think I'm crazy LOL
I told my tattoo it's I want to scars on my face and blacking out my eyes it was painful but I did not twitch after he was done I demanded for a mirror he said what I repeat it and angry i said mirror!!! As I was moving solely not just yet of getting up I started to cackle and laugh he said in an upsetting way I did what I could are you okay? As I got up look at myself and that bigger mirror he says sir are you okay as I laugh even louder in pain and laughing and calmly said I never felt better with the creepiest smile don't ask why you will never understand why
Imagine laughing this hard and diabolically about _literally suffocating someone_ in the back of the plane so you could fly a little higher and a little longer. Tom Cruise in a nutshell everyone.
Growing up back then, it made you feel crazy af for real though. Like something was wrong with YOU. I'll always be grateful I became an adult in the 2000's and at least learned I wasn't insane, the world was.
I can imagine that passenger watching this, realizing that's why he has brain damage and can't remember anything, deciding to sue Tom Cruise for turning his oxygen off, then forgetting two minutes later due to his brain damage.
@@space99dude they flew at a higher altitude to get to their destination faster, not out of necessity. Traded that guys brain cells for some extra time.
I came here because Christian Bale modeled his version of Patrick Bateman in "American Psycho" after this interview. Cruise apparently had an intense friendliness with nothing behind his eyes. Just a soulless, physically handsome, smiling ghoul. What I totally missed was the fact that at 3:14 Tom Cruise starts laughing maniacally about turning off the oxygen to some innocent guest on his plane. Who in their right mind does that??? Yikes! Sociopath doesn't even begin to describe Cruise's bizarre, creepy glee. Now I totally get why Bale was so inspired...
@@ravirauthan92 LOL. I did some research. This interview came out in 1999, not 2004. I don't think Tom Cruise was even interviewed by Letterman in 2004.
I wish more people would be able to spot psychos like you and Bale did here. Especially in politics, and thus stop voting them in. We are in this mess right now because so many cant even spot the most obvious psycho or obvious lies.
@@Luboman411 You haven't done your research well as the whole video was on RUclips at some point and it was for the promotion of "Collateral". Episode dated August 04, 2004. Dax Shepard was the other guest. In 1999, Cruise had longer hair (just check any interview from that year).
Can't believe some of the comments. That's a totally real laugh. Just because he may be part of a nut job organization, doesn't mean he doesn't have a sense of humor. That truly was some funny shit.
@@lorimiller4301In this case, the analogy should have been the guy who pushes someone down the stairs later jokes about it while laughing, rather than just other people finding the fall funny.
Funny also how no one seems to have the same criticisms of conventional religions which are all equally bizarre and cultish. Or criticisms about the way we don't seem to have any problem with half the world in poverty. It's just minds reacting to things that are not familiar to their program.
I am 1:30 into this video and this man has given the most bare bones answer to the questions, like he doesn't want people to know what he's doing. I can see how Christian Bale got inspired.
While the story is funny and his laugh is contagious, there is something very off about him, and those of us who have dealt with psychopaths (in our jobs or personal life) can very easily pick up on. His deadpan eyes, the over compensation on being friendly, his body language, tone of voice, posture, the very deliberate words he speaks... all of these things may not be obvious for some but for others it makes our skin crawl.
It's a very internal joke, he's reliving the moment in a safe perspective....I laugh about things uncontrollably after the fear and worry is gone...it proves he's human with a great sense of humor.
I don’t believe for a second he goes actual mountain climbing and Letterman knows it. Cruise looks so uncomfortable in that chair and at 1:34 he slips and says “wall”.
That’s because he’s talking about rockclimbing and Letterman is talking about mountaineering. They are two different activities, but these guys don’t realize that they’re not talking about the same thing during the interview.
He's just laughing really hard! There were thousands of less social filters in 1999 compared to 2023. No doubt those were sincere laughs from Cruise & Letterman! Cruise might be focused and very intense, but he's no psycho. When you have that much money, fame and influence, it's going to cause you to see the world a little differently and more strangely than the rest of us.
Letterman is alarmed and tries injecting some sense into him in bits but Tom is too oblivious and too far gone. This is something that truly earns the adjective "terrific".
i mean, i think it's just one of those moments (someone commented the same thing on this video) where you're laughing, you know you should stop, but the harder u try to stop the more u laugh. idk why our brains do this but it happens to all of us, seems like it was just caught on camera here. on the other hand, cruise is known as a staunch supporter of Scientology, and that shit gets real weird and real unethical very quickly. so...idk that being said, i thought this interview was hilarious.
@@ashleyvaughn4305 god forbid he mentions the correct ages of his kids, btw this interview was in 2004 when he was promoting collateral, not in 1999 like a lot of ppl are claiming.
These comments lmao. This interview aired in 2004 and American Psycho was made in 1999 y’all. They were probably flying below the altitude that requires oxygen for passengers. And it’s not like he was flying solo, he had a co-pilot lol but ofc i don’t see anyone calling that guy out
How to put down annoying flyers down for a nap. Having climbed mountains, i understand what he meant by...it wasnt dangerous but the guy was sleepy. Its a weird phenomenon, cuz youre safe, but it feels like naptime came early.
It's interesting how Cruise seems to be changing his body language throughout the conversation... In the beginning his upper body is just slightly to the left but in the end he seemed to have more and more went absent with his shoulder and upper parts 🤔 or do i just see that wrong? And he also keeps eye contact more in the beginning
Nothing out of the ordinary about this interview. It was funny cuz tom couldn’t keep it together. Theres that moment in everybody’s life when we’re trying to tell a story thats so funny to us we have a hard time keeping it together. That was the moment for tom. The interview was hilarious and if he got a psycho rap from it then the real psycho’s are the ones claiming the interview odd.
He couldn't hold it together about a guy's hands cramping from lack of oxygen he perpetrated. Even Letterman is horrified & puts in a few digs but the man is too deranged and unselfaware to notice that Letterman is not laughing with him. Tom is in his own psychotic line of reasoning/bubble that it's actually hilarious smh...very cringe
I had a prejudice against him, but now I think he has proven to everyone that he is a very smart and successful guy and even very, very advanced for this world
I 💝 this enterview. No idea why so much drama, it's just a male telling how he, and a friend did something men do a lot... something stupid. Just a normal male. I love him.
It actually wasn't stupid. It was about resource management in the cockpit to ensure the guys who needed it, the ones flying the plane, had adequate oxygen. At that altitude it's not dangerous to the passenger, just a funny story. Better the passenger fall asleep than the pilots.
@@e.l.norton His hands went into claws which is an extreme pain reaction to oxygen loss from extremities being diverted to the organs...this can result in PTSD. You don't know what you are talking about. Do not play with people's oxygen levels...I know sadism is being normalized thru breath play etc but people need to stop normalizing loss of oxygen.
the crowd laughs for no reason just like tom, because the crowd can subconsciously sense that tom cruise's persona is entirely put on. Tom feeds on that sort of energy and it becomes synergy which enduces tom to laugh uncontrollably for no reason.
That’s classic 😆. The “NYC” audience thought letterman was telling a joke when he said there’s so many fun things to do in Wyoming. The audience literally can’t comprehend the insane and numerous outdoor activities Wyoming has to offer and think in their minds it’s probably the most boring place on earth with nothing to do simply because it’s not New York.
