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

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 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

You know an ad is THAT GOOD when everyone randomly remembers it years and years later and comes back to rewatch it. Well done Enya and JCVD.

Absolutely. I didn't remember what they were trying to sell but I remember JCVDs epic split xD

One Jean Claude is all that's needed.....dat guy! Just superb!

[@revparravager3184]

Of course not....but several trucks were when they were cascaded by his explosive split skills by accident. Kinda like when Chuck Norris accidentally knocks out his Barber and the next 3 males in his lineage when his chin fist escapes his beard by accident.

[@koolkat5217]

That was funny. I already pressed like!

[@Laguna2013]

JCVD you don't need to prove yourself nobody has forgotten you, sir

[@mistervova11]

As a truck driver, if people would only know how much skill it takes, to keep this tractor truck in control backwards with a trailer. Insane driving skill.

[@lanista78]

Honest question: do you think the trucks are actually driven or rather in auto mode following the lanes on the road?

[@pluton80]

Well, it's the dynamic steering technology. This is what the ad is about.

[@kasel1979krettnach]

yes its really amazing. did you see that the truck with the "simpler" kinematics is the one steering, whereas the more complicated one stays on a straight line ?

[@mistervova11]

@@kasel1979krettnach Ah yeah didn't notice it. The one that moves doesnt have a trailer behind it, which makes it easier to steer backwards. But it's still impressive that he could hold the other tractor trailer truck in a straight line with that speed.

[@kasel1979krettnach]

@sebastian popek honest anwer: yes, because it is. The safety equipment was also real but has been removed from the pictures. (retouche), there is a making off video available as well.

@Tokyo Drift how can you be so sure??? only if you were driving the trucks... the illusion is complete and it was all done backwards and they were driving ahead.. much easier... much less risk

[@renequintanilla2537]

And still fake.

[@Stimpackswe]

Dont be fooled, this is not the precision of Volvo Dynamic Steering. But simply Van Damme's legs, keeping the trucks in line.

The epic split, the sunset, the perfect truck alignment, the narration, the soundtrack, the clear sky, the shooting angle changing to enhance the sunset.. So many factors that combine together making this a masterpiece! Still SO satisfactory to watch, even 9 years later!

[@gigabrain4841]

It is epic because of all the things you state. I haven't seen it in years, but it still generates the same strong emotional response as it did years ago.
