Hemmjo, nailed it with the amazon photo. Not only the lack of movement from the suspension as Hoosiersmoker pointed out but the general lack of any other flexing and movements in real life had a truck been loaded in such a manor then rolled over in the dumping first off once the truck started to slide off of the precipice 1 like stated the front springs would have been unloaded 2 since the dump bed was not in full raised position the cylinder would have hyperextended and most likely would have separated at 1 of the telescopic stages, but even if it hadn't once the weight of the truck fell back on it there would have been a violent retraction causing the cylinder to fail. Additionally there would have been a certain amount of twisting and flex to the mounting of the bed and the truck frame itself no real vehicle is that ridged. Truck cabs are not ROPS certified so it would have been crushed. Even had it been ROPS certified the visor and window glass would have been destroyed.
However all in all the clip was as fun watch and I feel it was the product of unintended results. I believe they were trying to make a video if the truck dumping while remaining on the high ground but the ground gave way
