About 20 minutes after leaving Roo, my dad lost control of our camper and we were all over the road. We went into the median going about 70 and the camper flipped on its side. This made our car go up on two wheels and we were very close to flipping all the way over. The camper, on its side being dragged at 70 mph, hit a small hill in the median hard enough to knock it back upright and get our car back on four wheels. Everyone on the freeway had stopped so we jumped right back on as if nothing had happened. The inside was completely destroyed. Our ten hour drive back turned into a two day trip because our hitch was broken in half, so we had to go about 50 the whole way. Just got back today and found out the camper is totalled. The guy couldn't believe we hauled it all the way back from Tennessee.
That really sucks. At least it didn't happen on the way to roo, that would have put an even bigger dent in your weekend. And no one got hurt(?), so it could have been a lot worse.
Do not kill, do not rape, do not steal, these are principles that every man of every faith can embrace. These are not polite suggestions, these are codes of behavior and those of you that ignore them will pay the dearest cost.

I was right behind you when that happened, I couldn't believe you were able to keep going like that. I thought for sure you were going to start rolling and jump up into oncoming traffic. I was getting ready to stop to help rescue people, I couldn't believe it when you pulled back onto the road and kept going. Glad everyone is ok! It sucks that your camper was torn up like that, but at least you'll have a good story to tell at the next roo.

I can't either. As much as that sucks, it's an amazing story you have.

We were towing a camper, and I'm pretty sure that we averaged about 45 mph the entire way. The people passing us hated us, but not as much as if we had launched our camper into their vehicles.
By the way, did anyone pass through Louisville heading south on I-65? What the heck was going on with that road?
