Volvo Trucks - The Epic Split feat. Van Damme (Live Test 6) - YouTube

Watch Jean-Claude Van Damme carry out his famous split between two reversing trucks. Never done before, JCVD says it's the most epic of splits -- what do you think? Please share & comment!


This live test was set up to demonstrate the precision and directional stability of Volvo Dynamic Steering -- a world first technology that makes the new Volvo FM easier to drive.

Filmed in Spain on a closed-off landing field at sunrise in one take.
Directed by Andreas Nilsson
Soundtrack by Enya: Only Time

so I take it this is a commercial ad for Volvo?:confused:

Try hooking VanDamme up between a couple of semis or a couple of Ford pickup trucks. Then I might be impressed.

Nice sound track :)

Is it me, or is the ad shown in reverse?

Oooops, pothole.

I'd have to go back and look at it, but I think they're supposed to be travelling in reverse to show you how accurate the computer controlled steering is or something. I noticed the same thing when I watched it.

Would have been much more interesting if a light pole had of been strategically placed. Kind of a Loony Tunes or Wylie Coyote moment.
