How do you do create an interesting demonstration of the "stability and precision of Volvo Dynamic Steering"? With the help of Jean-Claude Van Damme and his impossibly flexible legs.

The new video below from Volvo Trucks starts off zoomed in on Van Damme's face, looking calm and collected. As it zooms out you see that he's actually standing with each foot on the side-view mirror of two Volvo Trucks

The trucks, driving in reverse, begin slowly drifting apart, allowing Van Damme to perform one of his signature splits.
