[Video] Jean-Claude Van, Damme This is an Epic Splits Stunt

By -

Jean-Claude Van Damme Volvo Truck Commercial

From 1999 to 2010 Ford Motor Company owned Volvo Car Corporation. Volvo Cars and Volvo Trucks are separate companies, but that’s as close as I can relate this post to Ford Trucks. Although we’re a bit off-topic here, this is something you have to see, and I’m sure you will enjoy it regardless of its lack of relevance to Ford Trucks.

You already knew Jean-Claude Van Damme was the man when it came to kicking ass in feature films. You already knew the Belgian martial artist was famous for doing the splits. Now you’re about to know this man has testicles more steely than 99.93 percent of men out there because you are about to see Van Damme doing the splits between the wing mirrors of two reversing Volvo trucks.

Why did Volvo film this? They wanted to show off the stable nature of Volvo Dynamic Steering, a technology that makes their big rigs easier to maneuver. It must be a good steering system if Jean-Claude Van Damme trusts it with his groin.

By the way, this was filmed in one take.
