Regardless of what you think of him and that mad cult he's a part of, you can't fault his dedication to the craft.
An absolutely crazy level of commitment to a role.

To me that’s just a self indulgent waste of money and unnecessary risk to the team that set it up.
CGI / green screen nowadays makes stunts like that pointless.
I also wonder how much more time, money and effort went into it because he was doing the stunt rather than a stuntman.
That said he clearly likes doing these stunts, but it does leave me feeling it’s only a matter of time before one of them catches up to him.

Subconsciously trying to escape the cult.

Everything you said before this is correct, but this first line is the 'why' he does it.

He clearly loves doing this stuff, and nobody says no to Tom Cruise in Hollywood. He's arguably the last genuine movie star in the grand sense.

A former housemate of mine was the Helicopter pitot who flew when they photographed him sitting atop the Burj Khalifa during the production for MI4

This. Easy 5-10 million for 1 shot, months of prep all to fuel a 60 year old ego maniac. Crazy stuff.
