What did you do just not close the hitch?
I'd like to know, too. That's a B&W Companion, and you almost have to purposely screw something up to do this.

The tall looking fellow in the 2nd picture is the owner of the truck. I am the repairman.
He stepped out of his truck and was distracted for a few minutes by another camper. He didn't follow his normal routine and unlatched the B&W before dropping the legs. The camper rolled backwards off the hitch. A pin catcher would have saved the damage.
Next: Repair the damage to the underside of the RV overhang. Will be using bright aluminum tread plate for the repair.
That's why =my= first step is chocking the wheels before anything else. Nice job, BTW. Got pics of the FW, before and after?
