28 years before Tom Cruise launched a motorcycle off a mountain in MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE โ DEAD RECKONING (2023)...
GOLDENEYE (1995) pulled off this spectacular stunt:
Stuntman Jacques Malnuit performed seven jumps using seven motorcycles chasing a real plane.
The opening sequence marked Pierce Brosnan's debut as James Bond. The seemingly impossible midair "airplane catch" combined real motorcycle and skydiving stunts, a real aircraft, studio rigging, projection photography and digital compositing.
The sequence culminates in the destruction of a miniature Russian military base and airfield, rigged with practical pyrotechnics and filmed at 120 fps to give the explosion the scale and impact of a full-sized facility.
