F250 pulling TT If he would have hit the TT brakes (best) or TV brakes, he might have saved it.

Looks like he started to sway once he/she hit the bow wave off the front of the tractor cab.... Likely a combination of excess speed, poor setup, and local winds.
A simple gentle squeeze of the brake controller should have straightened things right out or slowing down but the person just seemed to keep on going. The way the trailer popped off the hitch suggests likely no weight distribution and no probable sway control device.....
Just backs up my practice of moderated speed and keeping alert of everything all the time!!!
Just because you have a big truck does not mean you are safe!!!
