Unless the camera man had a truck and a tow rope I don't see how he could have been much more help. They had two people already taking chances. To put yourself between the truck and trailer to push would have been stupid. Maybe just having a few people jump in the bed of the truck would have helped. Who knows. Looked like he just backed it in too far. I doubt he does that again.

+1 I was walking with the kid's marching band in a parade this past football season and saw some kids (5 yr old range) riding on flatbed trailer dangling their feet over the edge in front of the trailer tires. I nicely mentioned to an adult on the trailer with them the danger if one of them slipped off in front of the tires.

Ha ha, I knew I'd catch heat for defending the guy. I'm just saying I've seen a lot stupider things than that funny
