when i saw the video i figured that engineers carefully studied and calculated the load to be applied to cause a failiure. not hard to do. besides if a super duty has some allowable flex, its by design. good example is aircraft wings which are designed to flew to compensate for turbulence. those with rigid wings are not as comfortable to passengers and experience greater transfer of vibration and stress.
