Not just a hitch, but it's likely he had safety chains. Pretty scary.

It's probably the electrical plug that saved him.

I'm betting he's thanking his lucky stars that he remebered to hook up his safety chains.

The other thing that crosses my mind is how in the name of Hell do people get themselves into these situations?

Oh, come to think of it, I've found myself in a few embarrasssing spots as well. I don't think we'll go into that just now. I'm still trying to forget.
