- Can a hamster drive a 15-tonne truck? Watch cute little Charlie steer a brand-new Volvo FMX in a rough quarry. Will he make it to the top? Please like, share, and comment!
This is a daring test of the latest steering system. One that's so easy to handle that you can steer a heavy truck with your fingertips.
The test was filmed in a steep quarry that's infamous for its challenging conditions -- Los Tres Cunados in northwestern Spain.
Directed by Jamie Rafn. Original soundtrack by Adelphoi Music.

Tesla: invests millions into advanced automatic driving systems
Volvo: *hamster and carrot should be fine*
The truck doesn’t drive itself, A Tesla does
@@abdu3abdu363 r/wooooooooooooosh
@@abdu3abdu363 Well, I did not see a human touch the stearing-wheel in the entire time it drove. That's self driving enough for me.
@@ThisIsMeAndNooneElse this video isn’t even about self driving, it’s about how easy it is to move the steering wheel, demonstrated by a hamster
@@selimyasinuzun agreed
Hamster’s first day on the job and already had a preventable accident.
No injuries so he gets one more "free" one in the next 12 months as per DOT regulations. (USA)
Lol😂
A rosebud, on the steering wheel?
That's admirable, considering he usually flips his test cars

I hope Richard Hammond get that carrot at the end.
I am dying
😆😆🤣🤣
lmfao
Who is richard hammond?
@@rutherford16 search top gear Richard Hammond
I like how Jan-Inge explains why the hamster needs guiding by the driver. "The hamster cannot look out of the window, so we need the driver to guide the hamster with carrrot."
THE HAMSTER IS GONNA STEAL OUR JOB!!!!!
I know, that was the best part
Yeah! Otherwise had their steering wheel been at a better height for the hampster, it could successfully navigate the truck up the mountain 😂
Hamster : I don't want carrot anymore
Human : *Sweats nervously*
Lol
Lmao
😂😂😂
Lol he can put brakes or take control of the truck
@@excaliber8794 You never know, another gangsta hamsta may already have eaten up the brakes.
Tesla: expensive autopilot and years of testing and research.
Volvo: Hold my carrot.
Which carrot 😂😂😂
It's not even an autopilot they just call it that.. Leading people to believe it's like a plane's autopilot which has caused multiple accidents
@@H.EL-Othemany its an autopilot idiot
El Othemany it’s exactly like plane autopilot. It is an assistance feature that performs basic transportation tasks to assist a competent and focused user. In the same way that pilots still have to monitor the plane while it is on autopilot, and handle takeoff and landing. The only real difference is that it works on the ground so the collision avoidance is more difficult on the cars part, and far more nuanced, given that +-1m on planes is insanely accurate but +-1m on a car is unacceptable.
@@H.EL-Othemany Autopilot is different to autonomous which can drive on it's own completely
Interviewer: Congrats, you are the first hamster to drive a truck. How hard was it?
Hamster: Very.
Interviewer: Because you could not see the road right?
Hamster: No. The carrot kept moving.
Interviewer: Oh...
CEO of Volvo: We need to do an ad
Engineers: Oh shit here we go again!!
How could these editors miss the emotional payoff of seeing the hamster eat the carrot at the end!??! What a gaff! Otherwise a great spot!
Ikr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
David Sutherland he got the carrot
David Sutherland I was also expecting it to give the short a perfect ending!
They were selling the truck not the hamster.
Right ? It's like the director has no sense of what the audience wants.
Did the hamster get the carrot?!
Grace Dickinson, the animal trainer in the film 'The Hamster Stunt', confirms that Charlie received the carrot in the end: "He ate it all", and that he today lives in a pet family.

I see Richard Hammond found himself a new job.
he's still driving, so, not entirely new
His new specialty
Everyone's a gangster until the brake was controlled by another hamster
The hamster was the real star
yep the hamster wad the star, he should get the "woooh"
😅
No,the real star was the driver.
I guessed the drive was
You could say he was the ham*star*
😶
This is the first time Richard Hammond has driven without crashing!!!
It's amazing right?
That makes no sense. It would be a good joke if truck hadnt crashed.. But it did. Into a rock.
@J C i am. At parties that makes sense. 🥳
@J C the ones that have jokes like OP's
underrated hahahaha

First ever hamster driven truck. This hamster is surely going to narrate this story to his grand children.
"It was carried out by professionals"
*The hamster*
Underrated bruh😂😂😂😂😂
Well he is a carrot eating professional
He's a professional hamster
He's a profissional, man.
Just trying to make a career, you know?
😂
Imagine if he fell off the edge. Dude would have to spend the rest of eternity, in heaven, answering "so, what are you in for" questions with "a hamster drove my truck off a cliff".
He’s a stuntman. He’s not going to heaven.
““Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.”
Matthew 7:13-14
According to Jesus most people end up in hell very few go to heaven! I hope this driver knows Him do you?
He loves you here’s how you can know Him!

Conclusion:
"Hamster is disappointed for not getting that carrot :-(
Hamster should get an Oscar for that performance. BRAVO!!

I think a carrot would be more than enough for this scenario.

Me: a hamster is a professional?
Did he look like an amateur hamster to you?
That hamsters been a hamster his whole life
I’m pretty sure I saw that hamster in xhamsters
That was a professional hamster, yes.
Director, creatives and editors made an important mistake: not showing the hamster being fed at the end. It would have emphasize and complete the feel of the hard challenge being achieved.
I'm glad I found comments that also mention it.
Smart catch
Nah the hamster was on a diet. He was just working out on his treadmill burning some calories
@@humanbeing1429 oh ok ! XD
the hamster was later cooked and eaten

"Can a hamster drive a 15-tonne truck?" that's definitely one of those questions we ponder about at night instead of falling asleep
Hamster be like: "FFS, what's with this backseat driving, just let me do my job!"
I think most of famous videos are recommended by yt to me after 7 years . Every recommended video with million of views is recommended after 7 years .
What about you all guys
Climax : The hamster didn't get the carrot.
Point of this video : "Cruel World"
So you're telling me that Richard Hammond can now steer a VOLVO?
Fucking finally....

quite like a demonstration of video editing for Volvo :) I appreciate the effort
"It was practiced by professional in a closed off area."

I am 99% certain that that part was deliberately and wasn't steered by the hamster.
@@Jehty_ It is a live test so it couldn't be done, they filmed everything and you can watch the whole drive on youtube

Excellent, but I am looking forward for the hamster epic split...
Hamster- don't worry I will settle this thing just give me my carrot 🥕😂
These "old" volvo ads are fantastic, they could still be used today!
The carrot was obviously paid. What a joke.
😂😂😂
Yeah dumb@ss
The carrot didn't have more than 3 lines though, so he only got paid like an extra instead of an actor.
Well the video is clearly fake, any fool would know that, best still an interesting add.
Fake: The hamster was a paid actor.

Everyone is being Shakespeare here
Why? Does your hamster spits venom?
The hamster doesn't know he is driving Volvo 's fate
i love how everyone in the beginning of the test moving backwards to avoid the truck crashing on them.
When they said "Hamster", I thought it was gonna be Richard Hammond (Nicknamed Hamster) from Top Gear doing some kind of stunt made by Jeremy Clarkson to make fun of his short height.
Haha that would be crazy :D
haha me too
to be honest epic split brought me here, but still great work
Charlie, you're a professional!
The **truck* who really *stopped* that **pursuit* car was actually had been driven by this hamster
You know what im talking about don't you??
Lol 🤣
Give the pro hamster a carrot and a driving license.
The hamster is like : "I want that fucking carrot and i don't give a fuck!"
Well I've never considered to buy any car, but after 3-4 Volvo ads I feel like I need a Volvo truck in my life.
wtf first the CEO on a hook, now this :D
volvo commercials are ON FIRE
everyone is interested in whether the hamster got the carrot instead of wondering how is the steering so easy to turn
Bicentricnote33 Easy. Put a large hydraulic pump to create a lot of pressure. Or more likely in such a big and new truck, put a large electric motor in there to provide a lot of turning power. Then on the steering rack and the steering shaft, make the gear ratio really low. What this does it make the wheels really easy to turn, relieves stress on the steering parts since that is a lot of weight to turn, but it makes the steering less dramatic. That means you have to turn the wheel more times to get the same angle that a small car with a high steering ratio would have to do. So it is really easy but you have to turn the wheel more.
The thing here is the precision, it was the only system in the world for trucks that not only was this easy to control but also with the extreme precision to do so.
Because hamster lives matter..:)
Jordan Prier Ohh i see thanks for the explanation !

I still think about this video from time to time. 😂
What if the hamster went like, " ok that's it I don't want the carrot" , at the edge of the cliff.😅
I’m just going to explain that hamsters typically on live 2 to 3 years.. this video has been posted 7 years ago..
Ya, the hamster is like the tires. When they loose quality or life, you just get another one
Rip Richard Hammond
It might have croaked, but it has been immortalized by that ad.
So what, death is an inevitable fact for anything and anyone
That hamster is more famous than you and I
Volvo always comes up with the best adds.
This got recommended to me after 10 years
1:30 hamster was walking up the left side and the tire was moving the wrong way
Very cool! Nice video, Volvo.
And I get this recommend 7 years later 😅😅🤗🤗🤗
Imagine you are the hamster and you dont have the SLIGHTEST idea whats going on but actually you could throw a whole truck off the edge of a cliff
1:53 professional hampster?
Lol 😂😂😂
Imagine if the hamster said "hello everyone my name is hamster and I was brought by Volvo to do this experiment" at the beginning of the video
Absolutely thrilling, great job hamster but credit goes to driver.
