The best job in Hollywood ... the insurance broker for Tom Cruise movies because the premium has gotta be higher than the Airbus that took Tom for a ride ... ON THE OUTSIDE!
The 52-year-old actor was around the plane, high above the British countryside over the weekend ... shooting a scene for the new "Mission Impossible."
Granted he's wearing a harness, but the plane looks like it's around 5,000 feet in the air. However slow, however low ... it's still has to go fast enough to stay up there.
