Holy crap. That second video is even more cringeworthy. Both videos caused by the same issue... not setting a firm brake on the trailer and tow vehicle.

Parking brake and put the tow vehicle in 4wd then there is still some holding action by the front wheels when the rear ones loose traction from the trailer pulling up on them.

I have only Four words of advice for the people in both Videos: PARKING BRAKE YOU MORONS!

Better yet, rather than subject your drivetrain to that much stress, have someone sit in the tow vehicle with the brake pedal pushed as hard as they can, lockes up all four truck brakes and trailer brakes. :thumbs:

How about something really simple, wheel chocks, parking brakes, truck in parking gear?
