David Hasselhoff does the splits, rides a dinosaur, wins the internet in 'True Survivor'

Published: April 17, 2015

Dinosaurs, giant vikings, surrealistic high-flying gun fights, keytars, karate, wolves with glowing eyes and a Lamborghini Countach. It's all there in "True Survivor," the brand new action-packed '80s homage music video starring David Hasselhoff, the man best known for running down in the beach in slow motion and eating burgers off the bathroom floor.

The completely absurd music video, which is like an Old Spice commercial on bath salts, is in support of a self-described "over-the-top action comedy" inspired by '80s excess called Kung Fury which has already raised over $630,000 on Kickstarter.  

The abundantly self-aware Hasselhoff relishes in the opportunity to riff on so many '80s stereotypes, doing Van Damme splits, riding a dinosaur and, well, so much more. It's no "Jump in My Car," but what is, really?

The Hoff, of course, also lends his vocals to the campy, anthemic song which sounds designed to be played over pretty much any 80s training montage, ensuring that it will probably be a huge hit in Germany. Check it out below.
