I didn't see this, but I saw the results and heard about it. One of the former bosses in the company where I work was launching his boat alone. Instead of leaving the boat secured to the trailer, he had hold of the rope inside his new truck, with the door partially open. After backing into the water he stopped quickly to get the boat off the trailer, well maybe a little too fast, because the boat pulled him out of the truck. When it did that his foot came off the brake and not being in park the the truck continued down the ramp, running over one of his legs giving him a permanent limp and almost drowning him. If there wouldn't have been other people watching he wouldn't have been that lucky.
