I just realized there's a floor jack in there holding it up
I'm guessing that the jack is the fulcrum point and that the end of the log in the van is pushing up against the ceiling
I wonder if the front wheels are off the ground?
inb4 bumper comes off
He just needs another floor jack under the van to help balance the load. Jon

What's the rated road speed of the wheels on a floor jack?

Look at the Badlands winch from HF (I think). Its got some bigger wheels. (Seen it on YT offroad recovery sites) Jon

Any possible other action besides what he chose to do would have netted a better result.
Like driving forward to get the truck tires back on the ground: driving backwards to get the truck tires back on the ground; dropping the BH boom... probably not quite as effective but at least it would be action.
Or before loading he could have put the truck in 4WD and/or set the brake; he could have used wheel chocks; jacks on the rear of the trailer to keep it from lifting the rear of the truck.
He could have stayed home!

How many did I miss? :D
