If he'd have gotten the splash down on video he'd be at a million hits by now. The video of it coming out is so sad.

Referring to post #39, if that's real, and it appears so, there's a testament to the frame and body strength. It looks to have only curled the bottom corner of the cap. You'd think there would be more damage.

Regards,
W.D.

Well, W.D., after watching the video of the wrecker co. that removed it, no problem on it having damage now!

Man that wrecker company is exactly that, A Wrecker Company" They really wrecked that MH. All they needed to do was raise it more so they didn't tear it up sooooooo bad.

Personally I think it was a bet that he could not make it to the other side.

Like it was not a salvage unit already before they started, but that is really why they are called wreckers.

Booms would need to have extended to back of coach. The forward movement looks like swing. Doubt anything short of a crane could have done a straight lift there.
