Forget just thinking a [Volvo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multiadaptive-safety-belt) is safe car to drive; you'll *know* a Volvo is one of the safest cars on the road after watching this commercial. The ad packs a whopping 27 crash tests into a one-minute spot, all set to the inspiring music of Tchaikovsky's '1812 Overture.'

The crashtastic Volvo commercial is a great watch for gearheads, auto fiends or anyone who likes to see stuff get messed up. Without anyone getting hurt, of course.
