Ain't no mountain high enough for Cruise:

Tom Cruise will attempt to climb 29,000 feet to the top of Mount Everest once shooting wraps on Mission: Impossible III. The daredevil actor, 42, wants to fulfill a childhood dream by hiking up the Himalayan mountain after filming is completed on the action sequel.

Cruise says, "I really enjoy climbing - and Everest is the ultimate challenge. Life's an adventure. And the adventure is what you make it. It's every little boy's dream to climb Everest. I believe I can make that dream become a reality."

You Said

Given that they leave the corpses on the sides of the trails of those who die trying to climb it, it is quite possible that Maverick could in fact become Iceman

Best of luck to ya' Tom. In my opinion, however, I think if you are going to do any climbing, you should climb back into your childrens' lives and apologize to Nicole. I love your movies, Tom, but you leave a lot to be desired off the screen.
