Glad you did not get hurt. And glad your camper did not get hurt either.
I never had any of my tongue jacks fail on any of my previous TT's, but I did have the wind blow one once and it slipped off the block of wood I kept under the jack. I did not have a wheel or foot on the jack, so it sunk into the dirt (yes, it was grass), clear up to the bottom of the A-frame. It was a real challenge getting a jack under the frame anywhere to raise it. First, it was soft mud, second the frame was so low to the ground. Well, as you can tell, I finally got it off the ground.
Glad you are OK.
