That trailer and truck are in serious pain. I was trying to count the lug nuts on the trailer but I’m not sure. I think those are 3500 pound axles. I googled the weight of a Case 580 and got 17,000 to 19,000 pounds.

You're right.
Common sense says it CAN'T be done , at least not safely.

And yet...... the picture proves it was.

Oh... thats right, it wasn't done safely.
But nothing damaged & no one hurt or even killed.

I just don't understand.

When he gets to the scrap yard he should leave the truck and trailer also.

I think they are 6 lug so 5200 axles. Still way overloaded.

Yeah I count 6 lugs, but looks like maybe 4" channel at best. Maybe 3"...

These pics are just total head shakers. What is wrong with people?

Did you notice the different size tires on the trailer?

Well, he has a lot of straps on that TLB, so that's probably what made it work.

In seriousness though, sure it can be done. And sometimes it needs to be done. But if the road conditions veer to slippery/poor or someone pulls out in front of him or he does it a few times and the truck or trailer fatigues out it's going to be a bad day for some folks. It's called gambling - high stakes gambling.
