I guess that is one way to lighten the pay load of a fiver.  I'm surprised the TV isn't lifted off the ground.

Darnedest thing I've seen in a week. Great post, including the video. I guess we have all seen a real, live idiot at this point.

"You're probably a redneck if..."
For the record, I like rednecks.

Me either, but you have to admit the guy was pretty creative. Hopefully, it was just a short pull to move the trailer. 
Git 'er done!

Could it be possible that there was a truck hooked up to the 5ver, and the 5ver was towing the suv??..............scratch that, just watched the video. I wonder if he checked his tire pressure, or does it even matter at that point

I can't not believe how anyone would even think that was a good idea. The rear tires must leave the ground over every little bump.
I wonder who did all the frame work/welding to get the trailer even hooked up like that.......Was there lights on that thing......did they change the yellow and red lights around? 
I would be calling 911 and turn him in for unsafe load.

I keep looking at this video.....wow.
Video looks like it was taken in North Dakota or Eastern Montana
Something like that is what drives our insurance rates up.
