"Towing a trailer can be dangerous" youtube video

It states that 60% of the weight should be forward of the axle. On a 5000 pound TT, that equates to 3000 pounds tongue weight.
Nope, better recheck your math. Of course lengths enter into the equation so there is no way to give an exact answer, but you missed it altogether.
Agreed. Just because 60% of the weight is forward of the axle doesn't imply that it's all on the tongue. Most likely, it isn't, but, it "could" be. Need more loading information and the trailer dimensions for an accurate loading estimate.
