Actually, this was kind of how every episode of Mission: Impossible started. A tape recording would tell Mr. Phelps (Peter Graves) about the details of the mission for that episode, then the voice on the tape would tell him that the tape would self-destruct in 5 seconds. Five seconds later, the tape would start smoking and burn away.

Good morning Linus. Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to study hard in summer school. As always if you or any of your IM Force are caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This note will self-destruct in five seconds. Good luck Linus!
On another note, by the time this was first published the original Mission: Impossible had already been on the air for two seasons.
