    Done with only a safety line to stop him hitting the ground apparently.
    Some Enya for good measure.

    I'm assuming the trucks were moving, but it does't look like it for some reason??? :confused:

    Awesome add tho! :)

    Safer to reverse as if he fell, and they were going forward, he'd have been crushed!

    Plus, the music is perfect for the video!

    Its only the box truck that pulls away, the artic stays perfectly straight, notice the guide dots on the road for the box truck driver, he will line them up with a point in his mirror so he will have the exact gap for his legs.

    I don't care if there was trickery by way of road tippex. The splits impressed the bejaysus outta me!!!

    I believe nothing I see in adverts any more, and this is just a little too fake looking for me.

    In fact, I'd put big money on it being tweaked in some way.

    I did the accidental splits once. I was certainly tweaked in some way...
