CRUISE STARTS ALL ACTION DAY WITH NEW YORK FIREMEN

TOM CRUISE kicked off his mad dash across New York City yesterday (03MAY06) by driving around Times Square on top of a fire engine.

The movie star used a helicopter, motorbike, car and the Big Apple's famous subway system to attend three city-wide MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE III premieres.

And the new dad got his busy day started by visiting MTV's studios on top of a fire engine, and introducing pal KANYE WEST's live performance on TOTAL REQUEST LIVE from the street outside.

The action man called up to the rapper, "We'll see you in Harlem," as West prepared to perform new tune IMPOSSIBLE from the soundtrack of Cruise's summer (06) blockbuster.

The fire engine transported Cruise to a helipad, where he took off to buzz around New York's skies in a helicopter.

Cruise's day continued with a string of speedy traffic encounters, including one on his very own subway train.

The movie star's production company rented the train for an estimated $12,000 (GBP6,900) so that Cruise could arrive at the official US premiere of his new film in Midtown in style.
