That is the fast way of getting started on that "frame off" restoration.

I think it is sad his "friends" can only laugh at his predicament.

I don't think it was a predicament. I believe it was a planned video, including removing all the bolts that hold the body to the frame.
His "friends" are laughing because the skit went as they wanted.

I kinda wondered about that Glenn, the caravan certainly seemed to come off the frame too readily. Wonder if they were trying to duplicate a Top Gear caravan intended crash!

My basic position on anything on the web is that it is bogus unless proven otherwise.

Looks like it should have been on BBC's Top Gear. Those guys love to destroy "caravans".
