That was a serious event. It is lucky that now one as killed. I guess that it did not come off the trailer because it was well lashed down but the amount of energy in that Mog dancing around it is a wonder that the trailer did not unhitch and go over. Most would have stopped to investigate the problem this guy appears to just carry on risking every one else.

It's hard to tell from the angle of the video, but I don't think he had the back tied down. It looks like the truck is bouncing around on the trailer, not the trailer bouncing around. Either way, wow.

That guy either got lucky, or did a great job of not panicing and recovering it. A little over-correction and he would have been gone.
