The one thing I saw in that video, like others said, is the fact the model trailer is a pole. In the real world, trailers are usually a lot wider than that. So, what is not mentioned is that, not only should you have 60% of your weight forward of the trailer axle, but that weight should also be fairly evenly distributed from side to side.
60% forward is great, but if it's all on one side of the trailer, you are still going to have the trailer attempting to wag the tow vehicle. Ask me how I know this. ;-)
Cheers!
