Yesterday, we learned the title of the next Mission: Impossible movie (Mission: Impossible - Fallout, not to be confused with Obsidian's Mission: Impossible - Fallout: New Vegas*) and were given a special look at one of the film's biggest stunts, thanks to the Twitter feed of Tom Cruise.
Today, Cruise hopped back on Twitter to reveal a new image from Christopher McQuarrie's film, one which finds him trying to stick the landing on a most precarious jump. Take a look.
Get ready for the most thrilling mission yet… pic.twitter.com/WPOMFnzpd0

At the risk of sounding less than confident in Tom Cruise's parkour abilities, we don't think Tom's gonna make that jump. It looks, in fact, like he's going to head straight through that plate glass window, probably cutting himself to ribbons and blowing the entire mission in the process. Way to go, Ethan.
But it doesn't have to end that way.
We're opening up the floor to you, the gentle Birth.Movies.Death. readers of the world, to Photoshop the image above to provide Tom with an alternate ending. Maybe you'll hook Cruise up with a safety net. Maybe you'll have him leaping into an active volcano alongside Joe Versus The Volcano stars Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. Maybe you don't want to save Tom at all, and will have him plummeting into the Sarlacc Pit. We don't know. We just want to laugh, and we're inviting you to try and make that happen.
So, here's what we're gonna do: you Photoshop your best alternate versions of the image above, leave them in the comments below (please, no more than 2 entries apiece) and on Sunday we'll pick our favorite. Winner gets a free copy of the next Birth.Movies.Death. magazine (you're gonna want this issue, trust me). Sound good? Good. Let's see what you got.
