Woman on Wire between two moving Volvo trucks to show their precision (Video)

A stunt to beat all stunts showcases a woman, who walks on a tightrope between two moving Volvo semi trucks. Faith Dickey, World Champion Slackliner and Hollywood stunt coordinator Peter Pedrero have come up with a new video that portrays the precision and control of Volvo Semi Truck FH Series.

Walking tightrope between two trucks when they are standing still is a dangerous feat in itself, but walking on a tightrope between two moving trucks across a yet to be opened for public highway in Croatia, with the trucks hurtling at 50 mph is another ball game altogether. To make matters worse the feat was time bound with the trucks quickly approaching separating tunnels.

Volvo FH Series are modular trucks and come with varying configurations on its chassis. In 2008 Volvo upgraded to FH series offering better driver comforts and usability. In 2011 a new 750 hp version of D16 was launched which began deliveries early this year. Volvo FH16 truck is powered by Volvo D16C, E and G inline 6 turbocharged intercooled diesel engine with power via Volvo transmissions.
