“at 5 feet 7 inches and an extremely muscular 201 pounds at one point”
Tom Cruise has never been “an extremely muscular 201 pounds”.
Note to author: If you want people to take you seriously, drop the BS.
“ While previous research estimated 2 to 3% of U.S. adult deaths were due to high BMI, his study pegs the toll at eight times that.”
Grok told me recently that SNAP welfare cases are 40% obese compared to 30% for the self sufficient.
So if 2% x “eight times” = 16% of deaths are “due to high BMI”, that means about half of obese people (16% / 30%) die of being fat!
“A day late I suppose”
As a kid back in the 50’s we knew then that being fat was unhealthy.
well if he is 5’7” and has a six pack, he MUST be nearly entirely muscle and nearly no fat if he is 201.
One day is not going to be a problem.
It’s what you do most of the time that matters, not what you do on occasion.
Being a little above average in weight gives you a little safety net should you end up in an acute situation where you can’t eat much for a few days.
I worked with a 500+ pound man in the 2000s. He died in his early 40s.
Me! Me! Listen to me! I need a grant!
carnivore diet diet it for me
Having met the man waaay back when before he started wearing heel/lifts/inserts/holographs, that number is as inflated as his acting ability. He is 5' 5" all day every day.
No matter his REAL height, it’s that devilish, wicked, sexy smile that thrills the ladies so!
It’s a mix of charisma, discipline, and that famous smile—Tom Cruise’s appeal comes from how he projects confidence, intensity, and charm both on and off screen.
Here’s a breakdown of what makes him such a magnetic figure:
Commanding energy: Cruise has a reputation for owning the room—his body language, eye contact, and enthusiasm create a sense of connection that feels electric.
Signature smile: His grin is often cited as one of his most recognizable features, radiating warmth and approachability.
Interpersonal techniques: He’s known for leaning in, listening intently, and making people feel like the center of attention.
Relentless work ethic: Cruise trains extensively for his roles, often doing his own stunts. That dedication translates into an aura of risk-taking masculinity that many find attractive.
Physical fitness: His physique has remained strong and agile over decades, reinforcing the image of timeless vitality.
Crafted image: He’s meticulous about grooming and presentation, maintaining a polished look that enhances his appeal.
The last great star: Critics describe him as one of the few actors who survived the shift from traditional Hollywood to the superhero era without losing his shine.
Blockbuster icon: Roles in Top Gun and Mission: Impossible cemented him as the embodiment of daring adventure, which feeds into his allure.
Confidence + risk = magnetism: Studies on attraction often highlight confidence and adventurousness as traits that spark desire. Cruise embodies both.
Consistency over decades: His ability to stay relevant and charismatic for more than 40 years adds to the mystique—he’s not a fleeting crush, but a sustained cultural icon.
So, while his height or quirks might be debated, the real draw is the combination of charisma, discipline, and daring energy. He’s engineered his persona to be both approachable and larger-than-life, which is a rare balance.
Fellas, we have our work cut out for us.
