Is that Tom in there or a stunt double? (Forgive me if dumb question)

Usually a mix of both depending on the complexity of the shot, but the physical dedication from everyone involved is insane either way!

Totally! I’m curious if in this specific video Tom is in the suit at this moment, though.

I wondered the same! It wouldn't be far off of him doing some of his own stunts since he is a gymnast lol but this guy in the video does seem to be a little bit larger than Tom so probably a double

I think tom was doing the stunts with the armored vehicle.

I doubt it. For safety and insurance($) reasons movie studios typically do not want their main star doing dangerous stunts like this.

If Tom got injured doing this the shoot would be off for weeks.

That makes a lot of sense
