    I wish the video showed more, like how it happened in the first place.
    And I didn't hear any audio.

    Someone said something about hooking up in the dark.
    Well, we do have work lights.
    And being that far off the mark can't simply be because it was dark.
     
    FerrissWheel and D.Tibbitt Thank this.

    I’m guessing he hooked onto it thinking it was fine and turned right and off it slid with the gear up. Friendly reminder to everyone not to be in too big of a hurry with that one.

    I used to just tug test until I witnessed a guy drop a trailer at a Publix DC. Ever since I grab my streamlight and make sure to put eyes on that 5th wheel lock every time just for the peace of mind. I refuse to be one of these boneheads getting laughed at over this foolishness. REFUSE !
