That was hilarious. Laughter is contagious. I was laughing as hard as Cruise was. Thanks for this video.

Jeez Dave,let it go... the whole interview was climbing. What the hell???

His handler is off stage mumbling, “Keep your thetans under control, godammit!”

Letterman was always patronising

Can't imagine being that guy, watching this video. What and asshole.

You gara love the Guy,what a legend Tom

Laughing is contagious.

He was a handsome devil. Breaking news…😅

Crazy 🤪

I think I want to be Tom’s friend too and take a ride with him in his airplane,remind me to bring my own oxygen…

Excellent questions from Dave ,Tom is totally unprepared to reveal his add side ..

He freaks me the F out

He seems so fake AF. Even with all the things he does and had accomplished. So cringingly SQUARE.

Toms funny.

David asking a lot of weird questions

My favorite interview 😂

The most normal I’ve ever seen him, usually he’s super guarded

Love to this dwatf actually come against it and watch his candy arse melt.

Thats when Tom and Kate were dating it was the peak of happiness short lived tho

Think letterman is throwing mega shade here: woozy at altitude is a question he ia putting about how everyone who believes that Scientology bullahit crap is taken into space and given a conversation (i mean this actually is supposed to happen daily) So were you woozy in that 600,000 meter instantaneous atmosphere pemetration? If that were to gappen nd you did get acceleratedat sucj speed uou qould be torn asunderuçh like your belief in a purpose in this crappy rock.

Tom be closet gay

I get laughing like that right when I'm coming on to mushrooms!

Intentionally inflicting hypoxia should lead to a FAA investigation.

I know where I’m sitting if I’m ever on a plane that Tom Cruise is flying.

covert narcissist

I don't agree he "goes crazy" in this video. That's a ridiculous title.

Awesome. Tom Rocks

I was Toms passenger that day and he's right it's totally safe. I was totally fine 10 minutes later and there's been no noticeable brain damamamamage at all

This is what u get with Scientology ….$ we’ll spent making psychopaths everyday…Scientology for brain dead so soul idiotic dumb Fks…mscavidge is a crook

This is CRAZY GOOD!!!

I got woosy when I reached Pikes Peak Summit last Year

Hey guys, I just wanted to tell you, in case you didn't know, that Tom Hanks here in this interview is actually Patrick Batman from that old horror movie Psycho. I'm just telling you, don't get mad

This isn't crazy. It is totally natural and shows Tom Cruise is a cool guy. Give him a break haters.

This is absolutely the best upload of Tom I've ever seen! Fabulous. Thanks.

My Army unit trained him in Taps

Man, that was hilarious! I was laughing as hard as Tom was lol!

I have to return some video tapes.

American psycho

Belongs to a fake church that believes aliens started the world.

He was laughing and not that strange in this one compared to others.

Tom Cruise does not go crazy, he is crazy

great story he goes crazy laughing...

note to self, don't fly with Tom Cruise.

Personally I don't find his behavior that strange. At most it's just a weak interview. I'm guessing, given his veteran status as an actor at that point, that Dave's staff didn't see the need to do a pre-interview. That would have made for a smoother result.. but even if Dave is carrying the conversation, he was perfectly capable of doing so at that point. Even if this is in fact the interview that supposedly inspired Christian Bale's performance in American Psycho, it was clearly just a point of departure for the Patrick Bateman character. I can see a trace of it on a surface level, but it feels like nothing more than a symptom of general nerves. If anything, the reason most actors seem so articulate in interviews is because 1) they're actors, and 2) lesser stars are most likely pre-interviewed and therefore the entire conversation is mapped out from the start like bowling in a bumper lane. For whatever reason, Tom has this tense, disingenuous vibe through much of the interview, which is probably more in line with how an ordinary person would behave if they were being interviewed on Letterman. On the outside, it seems phony, and just a tad Patrick Bateman-esque.. but on a deeper level, it's a very human display of vulnerability/insecurity. I was surprised how normal it is relative to the title. I had this confused with the Oprah interview where he's running around and shouting and jumping on stuff. That's actually crazy. As for the plane story, I see nothing more than a recounting of the kind of ultimately harmless buddy story that, while a dick move at the time, becomes an endless source of laughter with age. Tragedy + time... But whatever's going on here, I admit I'm giving Tom the benefit of the doubt because from what I'm reading, this interview is from 1999, Tom's unquestionable GOAT year as an actor... (Eyes Wide Shut/Magnolia, anyone?) I don't think any actor in '99 had a better year than he did.

crazy? where...

There seems to be a dislodgement in Tom Cruise's brain, that he cannot comprehend Letterman's questions.

Come on, he's just having fun!

Haha. Shut the guys oxygen off. That was a funny story. I also caught some contagious laughing from him. I like Tom Cruise even more now.

Fixing the title for you: "Tom Cruise laughs a lot, live on Letterman"

my hands are numb! D1ck!
