Camper Crash-Camping Blooper with Overpass

Monday, January 4th, 2010

We have got a new camping blooper video for you. In this video, the camper crashes into an overpass, but luckily, only the air conditioner is truly damaged. But, the overpass takes the air conditioner…BAM!, right off of the top of the fifth wheel travel trailer in a split second! The camping blooper video actually shows two views from two different cameras. Do you think that the RV owner even realized that they didn’t make it safely under the overpass? We hope that this wasn’t your trailer…but would you admit to any one that this was your camper blooper? If it was you, here is a website to plan your next RV Vacation to get your mind off of things!

Travel Trailer Crash-Driver loses control

Monday, November 9th, 2009

Towing can be one of the harder parts of owning a travel trailer or fifth wheel. Transporting the camper can be especially difficult in the mountains and places with high wind gusts. As is the case with this camping blooper. Thankfully, no one was hurt in this travel trailer crash in Anaheim Hills California, even through the crash definitely looked bad. According to reports, a SUV was towing a travel trailer on the 241 toll road when the driver lost control and flipped the vehicle and camper.

Fire Ants help buy a travel trailer

Friday, September 18th, 2009

This story is from Bob Crawford on My Favorite Camping Store:
fire_ant“I was tent camping one night when I came upright to the sensation of someone stabbing a white-hot ice pick into my right eyeball. I rubbed at my eyelid and felt a bit of crud and then another lance of pain. I was still groggy from sleep, but I rubbed more furiously at my eyelid and felt a small insect body disintegrate under my friction.

I finally realized that a fire ant had strayed into my tent and stung me twice. It hurt, but being manly I toughed it out. In the morning I awoke and realized something was seriously amiss. I couldn’t focus my eyes and my depth perception was shot.

I seemed to stagger a bit and trip over ant lion pits. It wasn’t till I got to the restroom that I realized I didn’t have brain damage, only some swelling on my left eyelid which caused it to droop over the pupil.

I bought a trailer right after that.”

Back down the hill in the RV

Sunday, August 9th, 2009

Most RV owners responsibly pay close attention to RV towing capacities and weights. Not only can there be hefty fines for not paying attention to RV towing capacities and weights, it is also very dangerous not to heed proper requirements. Thus the following is not recommended. The people in this video did not observe RV towing capacities. What results is a cloud of smoke and a RV that is back down the hill where it started. Very dangerous, but a camping blooper none the less.
