Oh my. Yes, the raw untouched photos - with all safety equipment showing - activate a completely different part of my brain. Now I know these are real people, really leaning over the edge of a skyscraper.

It was a bit like seeing the Mission Impossible movie and admiring the great CGI that made it look like Tom Cruise was swinging from a rope off the side of the Burj Khalifa, and then seeing the "making of" video and realizing he was swinging from that rope.

Here's the "making of" video. Holy crap, he's insane. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16BFrEBZQS4

And after a hard day of movie making, what better way to relax than to sit barefoot on the spire that tops the building!

I can't say I've ever been a real Tom Cruise fan, but man, I have to admire his guts.

There was actually a lot of tricky paint getting the safety wires out of the reflections at Imax resolution.
