Filmed on a closed runway at sunrise in Spain, the 2013 Volvo Trucks commercial titled “The Epic Split” featured Jean-Claude Van Damme performing a real-time split between two Volvo FM trucks driving in reverse. The stunt was executed with military-grade precision, relying on Volvo’s Dynamic Steering system, which enables extremely stable and accurate vehicle control—even in reverse at high speed.

Directed by Andreas Nilsson and choreographed to Enya’s “Only Time”, the one-take sequence became an instant viral hit—amassing over 100 million views and winning multiple international advertising awards. It showcased not just Van Damme’s agility at age 53, but Volvo’s engineering finesse in a way the internet would never forget.
