The 62-year-old star ran through a crowd of athletes, accompanied by a guitar. Tom Cruise was equipped with protective equipment as he jumped from the roof of the Stade de Paris stadium. The screen also showed previously recorded images. Tom Cruise drove a motorbike through the streets of Paris and walked straight into a plane and said: "I'm coming".

The Paris 2024 Olympic Closing Ceremony will be themed after a sci-fi fantasy. The highlight will be the Golden Voyager scene and the return of the mysterious masked figure from the opening ceremony. All of this will take the audience back to the history of the Olympic Games.

Viewers watching the closing ceremony on television spotted a man pausing his music to eat a bowl of noodles while the rest of the band performed enthusiastically. "This was the highlight of the evening," one viewer exclaimed. "Great place to watch. At least he kept up with the music," said another.

The show aired on BBC, many viewers complained when the closing ceremony encountered technical problems. Despite singing their hearts out, the artists still had difficulty because the volume of the song kept increasing and decreasing out of control, making viewers uncomfortable.

"The sound mix for the Olympics closing ceremony is driving me crazy, why does it sound so bad?" one viewer wrote. Some viewers blamed the British broadcaster: "I'm sure the Closing Ceremony was impressive in the stadium but the sound on the BBC was terrible."

The Sun reports that the French band took to the stage to open the show but left viewers unimpressed after a series of audio glitches. Many viewers accused the group of lip-syncing.

"The gold medal for lip syncing goes to these guys", "This is the worst lip syncing I've ever seen", "The entire music is lip syncing. What a shame. It wouldn't be so bad if it sounded good but it's a technical mess"... Those are the comments from viewers.
