What’s your point ? I’ve towed with mine for thousands of miles and love it. Have friend that tow a lot heavier than I do all over the country with no problems. Video doesn’t show what condition the hitch was in, if installed correctly, etc.

Can’t say I’m surprised there is another failure video/pic. They probably have the worst reputation out there. Wouldn’t trust one if it was free.
That being said, it’s hard to say what failed here so can’t blame the hitch blindly.

Have about 5 friends who tow similar 5th wheels to mine who own one and love it. However, their love is about 99% centered on "It's SO light and we can remove it from the bed easily". I guess that's ok, but that's not why I bought a hitch. My Hensley BD5D is very heavy. And very sturdy and functional. If these aluminum hitches were a good concept, I'd think Semi Truck drivers would use something similar. But they don't, they use the jaws type hitches.
Just my 3 cents.
