Yeah it just got it up enough before the truck could get traction. You can see the gap change from the truck to the expendition once they get going. That and the truck was probably not loaded. If it was, it shouldn't have had a problem unless the weight was at the very end of the trailer, which would be kinda silly...

My father used to be a owner operator and when he quit driving he was a dispatcher for a local trucking company. One day I was out for snow and I was hanging out with him at work. A truck was stuck on a hill out side and could not get up but so far due to the ice. We hooked up dads truck, a 88 Silverado, and pulled him up enough to where he could get past a slick spot. So a similar situation to what is happening in the video.
