Just how tough is a Volvo? Well this video pretty well answers that question, in a glorious fashion!

Can someone please tell me if this car was mechanically rebuilt after 80% of those crashes?

That's not possible with one car... Right? I mean...

Exactly what I was thinking.

And the driver is either a masochist or the toughest mother berkeleyer ever. I hurt just watching.

Dumbass. The guy(s) filming = complete dumbass. Same with those sitting at the table in front of the camper he hit.

The car is tough, but I'm sure there are many cars capable of doing that, should you find a bunch of morons with no regard for safety to waste their time doing it.

They have a Top Gear worthy hatred of old caravans. And too much free time at the junkyard!

At least it wasn't all in one day. Looks really fun! And dangerous.

I thought that was hilarious!

Almost as good as the untouchable Volvo in this scene (Katherine Heigl, hngggh):

I'm not saying it wasn't funny... just that its pretty dangerous and there seemed to be little regard for safety.

In reply to ProDarwin:

They only seem to be risking their own safety, so Im cool with that.

Nah. Try that stuff with a Camry and you'd need a new car each time. With many of those stunts, you'd need a new driver as well.

I'd buy that. The camry would save your life at the cost of having it completely destroyed..
