Cruise's HALO MI Dives: 106 jumps at 25,000 feet, w/broken ankle

Cruise adapted a helmet so we could even see his face during the drops!

Tom Cruise broke his ankle mid-stunt, leaping from one roof to another. He pulled off the painful, complicated  move, landed a bit funny, and kept on filming. We cover that here. The foot looks a little gruesome in the side video -- take a look. Feet don't work that way.

So, what's the perfect way to heal?
