Volvo Truck Ads

[deguspice]

I don't know how I missed these videos. In November, Volvo Trucks released six videos to showcase the handling of their trucks in various situations. The vidoes involve bulls, a hamster, a talking head (or two), a tightrope walker, and Jean-Claude Van Damme.

The "Live Test" videos are the actual ads, then they have short behind-the-scenes videos.

I had seen pictures (and parodies) of the Jean Claude Van Damme one, but had not realized the trucks were going backwards during filming. I'd say the most impressive one was the ballerina one.

Thanks for pointing the out.

I'd like to see a video of the Ballerina stunt from a single camera.

I assume you've seen the Chuck Norris parody of the Van Damme stunt?

The tightrope one scared the hell out of me. Loved the hamster
